    Just an update, I went to Total, good company so far. I am out of the Olive Branch yard. Dispatch seems cool. Only bunk thing is that I am in a chop top pete. Other than that no problems

    Thanks for the update.

    That sucks about the Pete. The terminal manager there is a cool guy. Let him know to hold onto a Volvo 780 when one becomes available.

    Worked at Total 2 years not a bad place, ran out of Loudon, Tn, and Chris Reed will run your butt off, quit when US took over planning, was on a dedicated, they snatched me off of it and replaced me and 10 others with US Express trucks...Thats my take on it, a lot may have changed in 7 years

    In need of advice. Looking to go with Total Transportation, but have a concern. I went to have a beer with my brother at his house about a week ago and when I went out to the porch where he was, he was partaking in smoking the green stuff. I do not mess with the stuff, but the porch was filled with smoke. I don't think I was there long enough to get it in my system, but not sure of how all that mess really works. I know I will have to take a drug test, but have been told that some require hair samples. I'm pissed of about the situation and don't know if this stuff gets in your hair that way. Does anybody know if Total Transportation does hair test? I very seldom drink and do no kind of illegal substances, but don't want to chance messing up a new career.
