BG this is one, that's ready to quit running like that.
I stood in the parking lot listening to 3 other drivers whine about not getting more than 1500 to 2000 miles a week. Same 3 drivers...for the last 3 weeks.
And I can't get a break, except for my weekends.![]()

yeah instead of trying to work theyll sit screw that #### i got a family and xmas comin up ..... daddys gonna be runnin hard lmao
-
keep it up redneck, ur giving me a break haha,
4200 miles ay? not bad not bad, but iv got a question, you said you CANT run with any vet drivers... why is that?? with 4200 miles, and averging 3000 miles a week, i think itd be safe to say that the vets cant run with you
,
rednek is a good example for others to read about, he has been with the company for just around 3 months now, and he is avg 3000 miles a week, hes married and lil kids at home, and has no problemo getting home...
now, head off to conover, get a load to mass ct and ri with 25 stops, then we'll talk! and where the hell has mrs rednek been!?!?!?
rednek Thanks this. -
Just gave it up when things got busy. I got "burned" again on the last fire job and quit my "partner"...then the phone began ringing and I started my company back up. The comparison was uneven:
Go trucking: wife lonely, pay low, miles dubious, get treated like a little kid.
Go put on toolbelt: sleep with wife, make a little money, train for powerlifting comps, enjoy church and freinds, work prison ministry again, continue green energy research with group, pick guitar with friends, build next instrument, keep health and in general, have life.
I could see I was going to lose a lot due to the recession and the fun I used to have out there (and respect) is long gone for the most part. You guys who are dealing with it have my utter respect.rednek Thanks this. -

Where the hell has mrs rednek been? Hmm maybe she doesn't respond to mrs rednek lol. I have been muy busy, ya know cleaning, cooking, changing diapers the normal "woman" stuff hahah oh and trying to find a bootcamp for my 2 year old to go to lol I was also working really hard to get a grant and start school on the 31st for dental assisting! It is not an easy thing trying to raise the spawns of satan all alone haha. But I hear your keeping my man from being lonely... did he at least put out after all those dinners! But so far this job has been very good to us I was able to get a car (don't get too excited its a 98 ford lol) however it will be paid in full in a couple weeks if the mr can keep it up and then no one can ever take it away which is a good feeling. We are also getting caught up on a lot of other bills, we are very fortunate so far! Hope your doing well soon2be t2ul

Does there happen to be a W/S Truck and Driver that is currently parked at the Gee Cee's Truck Stop, I-5 Exit 57 in Washington on this forum?
-
Driver please pull off the fuel island if you are not fueling....

Great response but No, he is parked on the backed row of the lot and I just wondered if he was on this forum. Was going to offer to buy him dinner if he was..
