Profile For G-Town

Thank you PJ. Hope all is well with you as well.

Ditto, glad to hear from you G. Awesome news your doing well!!!

Hey Turtle… thanks. My ears were burnin’. Hope all is well with you!

Hey G, good to see you! I just spoke of you recently somewhere. Glad to see all is well, my friend.

Thank you Davy. Great to see you’re still gettin’ it done.

Great to hear from you Gtown. Yeah, once that desiel gets in your blood, your a trucker for life. My trainer told me that. It's proving true. Glad to hear everything is going good.

Hey Brother I am doing great down her in Lower Slower. Thanks for asking.

Busy, very busy. Still driving for the land clearing outfit, been almost 3 years. Enjoying life and getting ready to retire soon...which only means I'll be driving part time. I gotta be around trucks...it's in my DNA!

Hey G-Town, glad to see you are still kicking. Are you still in Delaware area? The wife and I made a trip to see our daughter in California, MD. near Patuxent River NAS and I thought about you. Don't be a stranger. Hope you're doing well.

Welcome Mom... you have received some sage advice from the veteran mindshare. Two things stick out to me that have been covered.

Letting your son find his own way is incredibly important. I'm sure he wants to succeed. Kearsey and NaeNae said it best...no point in adding anything.

Trucking in itself isn't dangerous, it is incredibly intolerant of inattentiveness.

100% spot on! The above statement is powerful and absolutely correct and should never be forgotten or dismissed. 4-wheeled vehicles, cars, light trucks and the cookie cutter SUVs are incredibly forgiving pieces of machinery. 80,000 pound trucks on the other hand, incredibly unforgiving. A slight moment of distraction can be catastrophic. Many of us have seen the aftermath of such things. His focus must be on total awareness of his situation, his truck,... never losing attention.

I wish him well... encourage him to engage with this forum. It will help him greatly. We all know what he is about to experience. Good luck to you both!

Hey gang...hope everyone is well and staying safe...been a minute.

Kearsey I remember when you started at Prime and some of the challenges you overcame in the first year. A testament to focus, commitment to excellence and down-home stick-to-itivness!

9 years is an awesome achievement...!

I intended on the 1 year at Prime... here I am... 1 month shy of 9 years. Boy did it fly by!

Good point

A link to an accurate piece of information is a dumb response? How so?

I think if he’s too lazy to look something up in the search bar he’s definitely too lazy to do the math required for split sleeper berth 😂

Errol making a prediction…

Also G-Town will sooner or later drop in to tell of his Swift experience. You will be in good company.

Let’s call it “sooner”… rather than later.

I agree with what Errol said and several others. I reached Diamond Status with Swift, trained with them and stayed with them for 8ish years. I’d do it all over again, same way.

Good luck!

And this is why this forum is the absolute worst because of smart asses like the freakin moderators. Ask a simple question to rule that many get confused on and haven’t fully understood and get a really dumb response. This forum sucks and I’ll never be back!

Bumping this reply. 100% agree.

I can't believe the number of people who ask the questions here about when it will be safe to have a clean hair or urine test because they have used some form of illegal drugs.

If you have used some form of illegal drug then wait a year before you try and test clean. Are you sure that you are drug freefor good or just fooling yourself?

Drug use of any kind just doesn't work in this industry.
