Stevens Transport aviary

I'm off to Orientation in Dallas tomorrow! Leave Seattle @ 7AM!

 

Hey, let me know how it goes. Will you pm me and give me some insite on how things are going and what you think?

 

Just check out my blog. I'll be writing about the whole experience there.

 

General time line
1 week orientation 1
Minimum 35 days (5 weeks) with first phase
1 week orientation 2
Minimum 21 days (3 weeks) phase 2
1 week yard, assigned truck, trip home

11 weeks if everything goes smoothly. Then you start grad fleet. Minimum 90 days. And then maybe your wife may become a passenger. She is going to be unhappy for a long time.

Go to the FAQ for more information

 

Trucking is a life style that is not at all glamorous. When I started my wife and I had the same plans but reality set in. Showers in truck stops can be great or a hazmat issue. She will be surrounded by leg humping lonely truckers and get to sleep in rest areas and bad parts of cities. Food most time is a grab and go and sightseeing will be limited to what you can see from the freeway. just sayin'.

 

Well, made it home this morning.
Hope you all remembered to reset your clocks.

 

nope not yet, the important ones reset themselves.
enjoy your home time Emulsified.

Hope freight picks up in march... I need to turn some efficient miles.
This home time is a quick 3 days, about all I can afford.

 

It's been a few days since I posted, so I thought I'd stop in and say hi!! I got my Bronx load repowered for a 2-stopper that runs down to New Braunfels, TX (I'm sure that you can feel my sadness about not going to the Bronx.) After that, I'm going home for a day or 2. I have been sitting at the Effingham, IL Petro doing a 34hr restart that ends in about 10 minutes. This load doesn't deliver in OKC until Tues am and New Braunfels on Wed, but I'm gonna run it all night and play dumb when I arrive over 24 hours early. Hopefully they will take it, and I can scoot down to New Braunfels and get a repower home!!

I need to get home like yesterday so I can get my new debit cards!! I ran out of money a coupe of days ago, and I'll be out of food within the next 3 days. Stay safe all.

 

I can't wait to go OTR so I can just get this 5 weeks outta the way...then from what I've been hearing it's back to dumb & dumber.

 

Week 3 this week. Ready to graduate and head out on the road.
