    Its been years since I went through orientation, so its hard to recall. As for a laptop, no idea. Maybe to take notes or something. Lately I haven't been seeing many empty trucks in Tacoma, but there are a few in Wilsonville and Fontana. Most of the trucks are Freightliners.

    Interstate isn't perfect by any means, no company is. I run into my fair share of issues but there are a lot of people here to help, and you will have to figure out who those people are.

    I'm also considering an offer from IDC for western 11 refrigerated. I live in Tucson and am having a hard time seeing how dispatch could get me home weekly.

    I was told 5-7 days on with 34 restart at home
    -OR-
    10-14 days on with a 34 restart with 2 days home

    I prefer option 1 because income is of secondary importance to family time.

    Yea I agree with the family time...& if I was given option 1 I'd jump on it...I would guess the
    5-7 option is due to your being close to a terminal or main interstate freeway,
    in my situation I'm about 1.5- 2hrs away from I-5 or closet terminal
