Stevens Transport Aviary . . cont'

If your coming to Colorado are you going to Keensburg for School? If you are you will enjoy those guys I went to schooling there. Stevens isn't picky about who they send to school. Its after your done with Schooling then they send you to Dallas they start making the cut. That way they get you for at least for the tuition.

 

At least I'll get my cdl out of it. About halfway there now. Just left Nashville

 

It use to be that when loads were ready at the Tyson, Nat Beef, etc plants, all the paperwork was sent up to the shipping desk (or guard shack) and then you were notified.
Now, when production has finished a load, they enter it into the computer which dispatches the yard dog and sends out the automatic notice to you, the driver.
Then the trailer has to be sealed, paperwork completed, USDA inspections done, etc, etc, etc.
Meanwhile you head over (you've been notified) only to find out "not yet driver..".
So as Clegg says, get the phone number of the guard shack when you check in.
We can't stop to messages here in operations. They're generated from the shipper and are automatic until your loaded call comes in.
Call before you roll!

 

You know it's really winter when the high temperature today will be LOWER than the low temperature last night!
Davenport IA (-7), South Bend IN (-6) just to mention a couple places.
Reading all those negative numbers makes 34 in Dallas look warm...until I read the numbers for San Diego....74.

 

Don't punish yourself. Stop reading anything with "San Diego" in it.

 

I'll take cold weather over the ground shaking anytime.....😳

 

Move to Oklahoma or Texas and have both!

 

I left the house here in temple TX. at 8:30 am. the windows on car still had ice but it was warmer than the last two days. still not too bad at 18:00. But Dallas is always colder than here.

 

Madeit to Kennesburg after a 50 hr bus ride. We only had 2 police interdictions with them hauling off 2 suspects. Some people said that the only cell service that works is Sprint. That is not true we have t- mobile, and Metro Pcs both working for text and calls. There is a market close by and the prices are pretty reasonable. They are a full service grocery store also selling hot and cold prepared food and they do take EBT.. Tomorrow is our first full day here. We have drug test (UA only) and physicals scheduled for the morning with paperwork to follow. I'll continue tomorrow.

 

Stevens!!!
