Its good you're doing good, I want just thinking about you and your thread yesterday.
Speaking of International Paper, I'm going to one of there places here in Virginia to get live loaded. I was supposed to be going to South Carolina, but they took me off that load and gave me this one to better support my at home time.
Fortunately, I won't be seeing Chicago any time soon.
Bobcat, I wasn't sure either about the "fit" due to my Iack of experience. So far, so good (knocking on wood).I assume you live in or near LemontI am about 15 minutes from their terminal , I see them in Chicago a lot, where there are a lot of unique docks and didnt want to risk it.
A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.
That's great news.
Hey Don, I am so glad to hear from you on the forum. Congratulations on landing the "local dedicated job". I'm sure it will be a better fit for your situation at home too. There is nothing wrong with being home every night and weekends off. I preferred that type of runs myself. It might not seem like the pay is as good but you also will not spend anywhere as much as you would on the road for food, showers, etc. You will also be able to better your time at home for your personal needs. Keep posting and I truly wish you great success and happiness at your new "home".
Thank you Susan D., Harry H., Jamie, Big Scott, and everyone else for the best wishes.
