Life After Roehl

Thanks bayle lol.


Yeah I'm working out my two weeks. Got a few days left. Ill turn my truck over to a new driver in NC this week. Ill be giving him my CB, inverter, cooler, and awesome truck.

 

Well, I completed my second day of my new job. I'm loving it so far, I'm getting my ### kicked by all the work, but it's worth it.

When people talk about staying in shape by finger printing your freight, I can testify that this is true. Ill be losing a ton of weight, food service is NOT for the weak. What I mean by that is I've thought about quitting but kept going at it. I'm sore all over, my muscles are screaming at me and will until February probably.

I touch every piece of freight on these trucks. Had 7 stops today, left Gainesville, FL at 0230 this morning and was back by 1430.

I can't complain, I earn every penny of that paycheck

 

Glad it's working out, before you know it the hurt will stop.

 

Yeah they told me ill be sore for about two weeks or so then my body will get used to it after the muscle builds up.

Food service is a lot more work than I thought. On a good note, I'm guaranteed $700/week salary but at this rate with the extra pay from stops and piece pay ill be clearing well over $1,000/week.

My partner has been here 5 years and makes $1900/week take home!

 

Nice, can't argue with those kind of numbers, I bring home about 600 a week. Not as much as I'd like, but I don't have to leave the house or pay for daycare.

 

that aint a bad deal right there

 

I'm liking it, learned a new EOBR program today. So now I'm versed in Qaulcomm, Peoplenet, and Webtech Wireless.

 

Im trying to figure out the Elogs used by Ryder Leasing which is whats on our trucks. Its confusing.

 

I pick that crap up fast, what brand is it?

 

couldn't even tell yeah. Ill write it down tomorrow. Its like the 1st gen qualcomm except you cant send messages on it. Its just a little screen and some numbers for you to type in your code and what duty status.
