    So how has it been going at your new gig? Haven't heard any updates. See a lot of their trucks when I run around Ga.

    Going great. Really enjoying it! A few times this week the terminal manager has thanked me for coming over to Tidewater. When I left yesterday for the weekend, he told me to have a great weekend & how much he appreciated all my help. Since I don't live near the terminal yet (I live 2.5 hours away), he & the dispatcher are very good about getting my 34 set up on weekends so I'll be home when my bride's off work as well.

    Really enjoying pulling the tanks over flatbed, too. A different world altogether.

    RevKev how have you been? I see a lot of the Tidewater trucks around and wonder if any of them are you. If you have an assigned truck now what is the number? I had to stay at a rest plaza in Chicago last week and a Tidewater truck was there also thought about knocking to see if it was you. Truck was #180.
    Have you found a place closer to terminal yet? Have a great day.

    Howdy! Been doing just fine! While I liked things at MTL, I'm really enjoying pulling tanks, as well as being with TWT. I've been up Chicago-way about three times so far, but it's been a few weeks since I've run that way. My current truck number is 203 (a 2010 Volvo --- bit then again, all our trucks are Volvo), but I'm told I might be getting a newer one in a few days, number 407. Tell me again who you run for......I forgot.
    Havent found a place yet, but the bride came over this past weekend & we house hunted. What a freaking exhaustive process! We're looking to buy, so we just want to get it right. I'm sure we'll find something soon enough though. :)
    Hope things are going well with you & yours, my friend!

    RevKev I was delivering to a place in Chattanooga Tn. today and I met a Road Chaplain for McElroy and he was very nice to talk to. He gave me a couple cd's. Just thought about this thread when I seen him.

    How are things at TWT?

    Yeah, I was able to talk to a couple of the road chaplains a time of two. Nice guys.

    Things are going very well at TWT. Really enjoying tanker work, & my terminal manager is a great guy to work for. Our dispatcher in Decatur is very easy to work with, very helpful, & having been a driver for years, as well as terminal manager with another company, he knows & understands what the drivers are dealing with on a daily basis. Same goes for the manager.
