    CW,

    I agree with you on the point that there is no arguing with unless they were in the truck. Out of the people my former trained, I made a lot of screw ups but I also learned too. Just not quick enough. 3D, I have read your story but would be delighted if someone can post the link to it.

    JJ, sorry to hear you got ripped off at Cargo sucks express, i was there for a week back in 2007 where i signed up for 11 western and they tried to run me 48 states right at the get go, then they wanted you to keep changing trucks every time your truck needed worked on so i finally said enough when the mechanic they had took 6 hours to replace a fan switch so the fan wouldnt run constantly and then the truck was missing when running and they said run with it anyway and you couldnt get any speed out of it so i took it back cleaned it out and went home. Hope all goes well with motor west, if they didnt run california all the time i would have put an app in there a long time ago but i cant stand the commi country of california, have fun JJ keep they shiny side up and keep it between the lines.

    I guess it's just jess and i being real friendly and trying to keep it real. We enjoy the trucking lifestyle and are all about it. We have made some awesome friends on here and out on the road and try to help out one another when we can. We are all on here to share the ups and downs, the good and the bad and pass along advice when needed in the hope it helps other drivers to grow as professionals. I am real happy here atleast for now. I really am enjoying Jess and the four legged kinds being on the truck. take care and try and visit more often. JJ:biggrin_25525:

    So far Motorwest has done me right, I am getting to atleast tolerate Commiefornia. It wont be forever because when jess and i get the money saved up we will be buying our own Pete and go back 48. til then its just moving the truck as fast as i can and turn the miles JJ:biggrin_25514: I left for almost the same reasons plus they dropped my pay to 25 CPM and tried to tell me i was getting 29CPM. Well i moved on and I am a lot happier where i am now.:biggrin_25525: JJ.

    OK i was informed today by my good friend Paul and 1bad's fellow co-worker that it seems 1bad has a new nickname. It seems that on the final run for Paul's old truck he blew a turbo all over the hwy in GA stranding him on the road way waiting to be towed back to the shop, 1bad was behind him when it went and said it was just like when a Nascar comes a part during the race so he gave Paul the nickname Turbo Trucker.

    Well on friday 1bad got his newer truck and on the very first run developed a really bad coolant leak causing it to leak out all over the HWY so paul returned the favor and now 1bad is now known as Bladder boy. LOL. These two are my really good friends and i am really lucky to have met them. I like it when you can joke around and have fun while trucking. JJ

    HT is never guaranteed PF. I wish I could help you out and convince management but I''m afraid they will not listen to me. Good luck and have fun with the mtn trip.
