Spent the last couple of days in Denver and met two self-proclaimed "Mountain Girls." Both defined Colorado Mountain Girls as country girls who like the open space out in the country much better than they like people.

So does your nickname come from driving a truck in the mountains or are you a Colorado Mountain Girl?

Dunno. But that's my handle here and in trucking. I live and work out of Denver. Drive in the mountains, of Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming every day.

Con Way disappeared a few years ago and LTL is XPO and truckload became the relaunch of CFI.

LTL:

Less Than Truckload

Refers to carriers that make a lot of smaller pickups and deliveries for multiple customers as opposed to hauling one big load of freight for one customer. This type of hauling is normally done by companies with terminals scattered throughout the country where freight is sorted before being moved on to its destination.

LTL carriers include:

  • FedEx Freight
  • Con-way
  • YRC Freight
  • UPS
  • Old Dominion
  • Estes
  • Yellow-Roadway
  • ABF Freight
  • R+L Carrier

SAP:

Substance Abuse Professional

The Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) is a person who evaluates employees who have violated a DOT drug and alcohol program regulation and makes recommendations concerning education, treatment, follow-up testing, and aftercare.

I should have read that other thread closer: XPO.
