    We met Jim today. Really great guy, sounds like he definitely has some stories too. Didn't meet Pete (at least, as far as I can remember... so many new names, and so much other stuff to remember.)

    Gotta say, Keen can definitely talk the talk. I'm really hoping they walk the walk as well. I'm willing to believe that they do just from what I've heard. Being with Cressler instead of Keen itself has me a bit worried, but I'm betting they'll be better than anyone I've run with yet.

    Just wish the Cressler trucks at least had 13 speeds, but ah well, I'll make do until I get enough flatbed experience to make the swap to Keen. :)

    Yup, we were out there. Didn't get to see my truck since it's down in Shipp. I take it you took off already? The guy with the long hair is actually the son of someone who was at Keen a while I believe. Not sure of the whole story, but a lot of folks keep telling him how much he looks like his dad. Heh.

    And ya, sorry for the hijacking. :)

    Dude thats what the thread is for....I haven't had the chance to post lately. I will be in Carlisle tomorrow and most likely for the weekend. They have me on a load that isn't scheduled to pick until Monday, but im going to try and see if I can load sometime tomorrow.

    Raezzor I will be up in Carlisle tomorrow, so maybe we will get to meet before you head out with a load.

    It can't hurt to put in an application...a friend of mine just started a couple of months ago that had some flatbed experience about 6 years ago. Like Keendriver said, it all depends on your driving record and work history. You live in a good area.... they want guys that live close to the yards.
     
    outerspacehillbilly Thanks this.

    Well I have had a couple of back to back good weeks, but it looks like I may be screwed for the weekend. I got empty in Lafayette La. Tuesday and they bounced me to Jackson Ms. to make one pick up and then I went to our yard in Ga. and made a second pick up. I got my 1st stop off in NJ this afternoon and will make my second drop in Harrisburg Pa. in the a.m.. I'm scheduled to load in Ithaca NY Monday morning going to Salisbury NC (this load will be getting me home for a weeks vacation) So if I can't load tomorrow it's going to be a long weekend.
