    That WII system is just to much fun. I've thought about putting one on the truck for exercise, the boxing game can give a pretty good cardio workout.

    I heard JCT kinda freaked out with a high number of drivers taking 10-14 days off during the holidays. I took 12 days off myself several reasons
    1. It was my 30th anniversary on the 31st.
    2. I have felt like a stranger visiting my own home the last couple times I went home. Messed up when you go home and feel like your visiting someone else's house while your there.

    Well I just completed all 330 pages. If anyone wants to learn about a opportunity like JCT offers just read this thread. LMB, thank-you for starting this whole thing. Grizzlyman, I live in Tumwater and would like to speak with you when you get back up this way. Thanks again for all of your input, good and bad, because those of us who have been around this industry know that every day it is what you make of it. Be safe and may 2010 bring success to all.
     
    GrizzlyMan, dabs and Vette1967 Thank this.

    Did you maintain your fixed cost payments while you were off. I am mailing 2 payments to Shannon Crowley to cover my time off. They tell you in Orientation that this is the time of the year to take vacation(at least they told us)

    This is another example of the benefits of having your own truck. Company drivers have strict prohibitions on drinking while assigned to a company truck and under dispatch while o/o's or lease ops have more say over what they do and when they do it.

    The beer part doesn't interest me, getting out of the truck for a night is a good thing
