    Lol you should buy a PA system unless you can yell really loud. Never been to NJ? Your not missing much, its called the armpit of america for a reason LOL. Just remember that all traffic laws are only obeyed if you want too. That's just my NY side. My gfs dad who originally from NJ says I'm the typical loud obnoxious NYer.

    HAHAHAHAAA that is funny. Been to NJ numerous times, just not with current company. NJ ranks up no doubt in my top 5 of ####### drivers lol NY/CALI is tied for first of my useless opinion :biggrin_25523:

    The further away you are from populated areas like NYC they aren't bad. But the metro area of NY are horrible. New England is worse

    Oi! I average about 3.5 driving, about 5-6 hours dock, about 1.5 drop hook and sometimes I switch trailers around back in my yard.

    I stopped on Wednesday to inquire about the application I submitted at the beginning of the month. TM was nice enough guy and said he would look into it, but it hadn't crossed his desk yet.

    Cenutryclass was that English lol

    @jumbo that's not a uncommon thing. Their hiring process I've heard takes forever. Mine was only spread up because they desperately needed a road driver for my bid. I got very luck, literally a hour after I applied I was called and the TM pretty much gave me the road test, drug and physical the same day. I'm guessing since I had exp with LTL and all it was like that.

    Normally LTL jobs usually don't care. Think about it every LTL job has their rejects from other companies so they know what goes on. I'm one of 3 ex YRC guys. Back at YRC I was 1 of many ex CWF guys (no pun intended).
