    I have been told I will get an average of 24-2700 miles a week. I am guessing it can be more or less depending on freight.


    I live update on my progress- we are at a place called comprehensive care doing our physicals. This is my third DOT physical in a month and this one was very well in depth. We also did two drug test one urine and a hair test. This company really doesn't want drugs in your system!

    Day one is over. We did a lot of trip planning once we got to the yard. I am glad all of the test are over with. I am ready for what day two brings, but we do have homework to finish which really wouldn't be a big deal but I am also a college student who does online classes and I have homework for school to finish also. Looks like I will be plenty busy.

    Yup a tough task, I am not going to give up on getting my degree. I am going to take a break after this semester. BTW Lantern how much do you run to FL? I would love to head that way and get a break for a Jags home game.
