    Hey pinkshoes! :biggrin_25519: Nice to "see" you again... :yes2557: Was wondering where you have been... Still interested in pursuing a trucking career?

    About the time... I have no complains with this co. My 2 dispatchers are great professionals and we have very good communication. I keep them well informed about my hours... besides, they constantly check driver's elogs when planning the loads and all so everything works well... Not saying that everything works perfectly... Sometimes things change... after all, this is trucking... things change, delays happen... equipment has problems... sometimes... but so far it has been good...
    I like to keep running non stop... other than the mandatory breaks... Sometimes I think I "push" the dispatchers more than they "push" me... :biggrin_2559:

    I will be happier with a Timpte for sure, my choices are not so limited. I weigh 30300 full of fuel with the steel trailer so I hope a Timpte on Aluminum wheels will get me 2000 pounds. We get paod by the bushel, sometimes by the hundred weight. Yea I am making the transition better, You get ready for some experience we may make a few rounds if you want can't hurt. I have two trucks and two wagons so not like we be bunking together.

    Easy now I aint your average swift driver. I drove triaxle for a bit a few yrs back and i'll yell ya . I ran harder then most , but gave up my B license when I got layed off and had kids .
    Then I needed a way back into it so I went the route I did. Lol. Not the smartest route ...:biggrin_2559:
