    Well I was set to go to orientation on the 8th that would be this Monday. Even went as far as to have the IRS send me my paper work proving that I collected unemployment in 2009 while attending trucking school. Then the unexpected happened my current employer offered me a 3.00 per hour raise and offered to put me on a bonus system. So with some regret I have decided to stay where I am at . I may be making a mistake as JBS sounds like a great company and I was really excited about going to work for them. Still it is very hard for me to turn down that kind of money and with winter right around the corner it may be best for me to stay put... I wish all of you attending OR on the 8th the best and hope all of you enjoy your employment with JBS , It sure sounds like a great company ... Maybe somewhere down the road I will see some of you out there. I still plan to stay up on reading this thread and thank you to all of you that were such a big help.

    Florida Girl,
    I have a College Dorm Frig in the truck sits behind the drivers seat, in front of the left closet Works great for me lol, 3.4 cubic foot fridge 110 plug near the floor has all the power it needs.

    Ok On the way to Olive Branch MS, then Charleston SC, then home by Friday, just found out my truck is going to be in the Cummins dealer while I am on home time, #### thing started eating Anti Freeze, 1/2 gallon every 2 days I know whats next Bye Bye EGR Cooler, and to top it off the #### thing is eating Oil too Well That means a Turbo Soon, oh well run it till it stops lol. Should be fine till it gets to the shop, I put duct tape on the turbo as a threat to the EGR coolers, and that DPF thing what a Pain in the arse have to REGEN after taking break or I look like a moron cutting through the lot, with that turd cutting on and off, sucks but I will cope with it...

    Just a FYI I will be out of touch with reality from 8/12-8/18 as my B day falls in between and I do not work on my BDAY ever (well since the big incident lol)

    So... Again today was qualifying day for me. Well this time i qualified! Bloodpressure was no problem, a perfect 120/85. Before that i had the road test which i was really nervous about but i just did what i did in driving school, just take my time, smooth shifting, and was safe. I ended up doing pretty good. I was even praised a little bit by the safety guy lol! was crazy..... but anyway... so yeah... finally onto day 2 of jbs orientation! really good feeling. So yeah... if there are any trainers that look at this thread, PICK ME UP! i CAN drive a little bit! You wont be terrorfied with me! lol. But yea, good day today, really excited. See you guys out there, drive safe.
