    Is your new gig working out for you UturnGirl?
    I know you had a list of terms & conditions as you rightfully should with your experience but swapping jobs and trying to get what you had can be a pain in the arse....

    Thanks UturnGurl. As an older worker myself i get it! It really stinks to have to reinvent the wheel every time you land a new "opportunity." Often times only because your last employer flaked out.

    Personally i feel blessed as a new driver to have landed a tanker gig with a family owned transport business owned by a man i worked with but didn't really know for years at a UAW factory. He was laid off in 2006'ish and grew one truck to 37 today with his son taking the reins. I get to train with his son starting Wednesday and look forward to learning to back rigs into farmers driveways at 0 dark thirty.

    With freight slowing here I'm thankful that its not me sitting in some lot with 30 other Millis drivers earning 0 cents per lot mile. I'm glad i didn't have to pay my dues like some of you all! Mad respect!
