    Melton screwed the pooch. I submitted an application to Lone Star and they approved me last week. In fact, I'm at the hotel in Gainesville, TX right now for orientation Monday. I turned in my truck today at the Irving yard. I even submitted another app hoping Melton would reconsider me, but I've gotten no response. Sorry man. Just couldn't pass this opportunity up. They do Over-Dimension too which is part of the reason why I wanted to get into flatbed. I won't have to change companies to get that experience now.

    I wouldn't work for these people merely on principle, but hey, if they pay something decent I don't judge somebody for doing what they gotta do. All I remember about Walmart was some douchenozzle trying to come around me on the Tappan Zee trying to prove what a hard a s s he was. They'll get get their Chinese made crap fast enough sir.

    Walmart drivers make at least 30,000 more than that in a years time with an ironed shirt.

    I'd work for Walmart but I wouldn't quit the job I have to work for them. I have a spotless record and never applied to work for them.

    You have to promise to be a WalMart greeter when you retire.
