    We don't touch freight here and most of the time we just wait in the truck for them to load or unload. Multiple stop loads are usually well marked for them to stop. Just keep a continuous seal record going.

    In Tulsa at the J. Should be good for OTD

    I think I've finger printed 2 loads, since I've been out here. Both were to help me get finished faster.

    Whenever I had a claim at TA, they used to ask me if I was watching during the loading/unloading process, and then they'd ask why, when I told them no. Took a couple of times for them to get the hint but, my reply was always..... "Let me know when you start paying me for that, and I'll be happy to do so..

    Evidently when I have been rooting around in storage taking care of all of these Christmas decorations I was bit by some kind of poisonous spider. I didn't think too much about it until it started itching, swelled up to the size of my fist and became infected........:biggrin_2557:.....This is no fun....

    Hi all, well i am calling my recruiter tomorrow to set up orientation for either the 14th or 21st Of January. Im leaning more towards the 14 but considering the 21st that way i get a full week off with my wife and kids before i leave out.. I Just put in my 2 weeks notice yesterday for my current job that i have held for the past 6yrs and my supervisor burst out in tears. Im hoping that im able to use my 2weeks vacation which will allow me to receive a full check while im out with my training/coach. After training i will plan on coming home the Thursday before Valentine... Question... For trainees that go company will they always have a company driver as an coach and vica versa for lease purchase operators? I no the drivers dont have to unload the freight but how much will TA pay the driver for unload his or.her freight??
