Me and Ole Blue

In this thread, I am going to attempt to talk about my adventures as a driver for Morehouse Truck Lines.
Earlier in the year, I was a shag driver for Greater Omaha Express, I started in Feb. of 2016, I enjoyed the work, but a year later it was beginning to take it's toll on my knees so I began looking for a M-F schedule, instead of the M-Sat. I was working. Several things came up but fell through, so I went to work for a company called Monson and Sons. I really liked working for them, for one they had old school Pete's with big horsepower and transmissions. The truck I ended up with had a 600 hp CAT backed up with an 18-speed tranny and man could this truck pull. Around this time my mom was evaluated for a bad heart valve, and we learned that she was in the beginning stages of Dementia. So after some time had passed I knew that even with a caregiver for mom I was going to have to find a company that would get me home more, don't get me wrong, Monson was great to work for, we tried several things to make it work with my situation with mom, but ended up realizing that their system and my situation were not a good mix at this time, and they were very understanding and helped me to get back home.
After some research and a suggestion from a friend, I found Morehouse, liked what I saw and filled out an application, they like what they saw from the application I submitted and the background check and made me an offer that would fit my situation with my mom, I accepted and so it begins.

 

Good deal, yeah Jerrod said that new trucks are coming soon for you guys I guess.

 

Yeah when I was there they seemed to have a lot of problems with the auto freightliners

 

Yeah, we have a caregiver for mom that keeps an eye on her when I'm not there. Appreciate the thoughts and prayers.
