    And the most likely place for any vehicle to break is the last place touched by the mechanic........ Trouble shooting 101

    don't panic just keep your towel handy

    Got back in the truck at 11:35 pm. lol. 1135. After almost 35 hours. Nothing should break on here for a long time. It better not. Finally. After some douchebag playing the same chord on his guitar in the drivers room for 5 hours, I'm ready to knock myself out.

    Just got home after returning my truck to indy today.. said my good byes and moved along..

    my old dm didnt know I was leaving until she saw me today.. she was surprised and asked why I was leaving..

    I said just look at my miles... after she pulled up my miles she was shocked and asked..what happened... she looked back and since 12/01/13 I had only run 14k miles for 2 months... I told her now you know why I am leaving...now I was off 10 days for vacation but that still leaves 50 days worked...that is a 280 mile a day average.. not gonna get it..

    all over now. . I start my new job monday and wish those I left behind all the best...

    it was a good 5 years and no regrets. .. I left when I needed to. ..

    I dont think i have said yet.... small carrier in tennessee .. prefer not to go into them here..

    No one can really be certain about a company until you work for them a bit. I am going forward with an open mind but i am keeping my options open as well.
