Denise,
Quote From: sputnik56Truck driving is a really good field to get into right now, just as long as you don't try to buy your own truck! Often it will take a new driver a couple of years to find the right company, but then it all works out pretty well. Tom has been driving for over 20 years, I drove with him for about 5 years. The most economical thing we did for our phone bill was the cell phone. We have Cingular, so calls between us do not count against our minutes. I remember those $400. phone bills....ouch. I read in "Money" magazine that truck driving is one of the top 5 occupations to be in to be sure your job will never be outsourced to a foreign company. Made me feel good! Who is your brother driving for? Oh yeah, last month Tom forgot his cell phone & called me collect one day from a little town in GA. A three minute call was charged at $29.67. I reported it to the Public Service Commission & they are supposedly investigating it & getting it reduced. We'll see about that. Good luck to your brother & it's really good to hear from you again too! How are you doing? Still got a house full of animals??
Denise yes i still have my furry babies. i have 3 of them tow live with me. my two cats Sheila black fe/s and Blackie male/n.. Shelly Fe/s Shih Tzu 18yr lives with my mom and my brother stays with Mom most of the time too .he has been since my Dad died in Dec of 2000. But he still has his own Mobel home . he has most of his stuff that is the GOOD stuff at moms house. because his place had gotten broken into twice several yrs ago... now he has an alarn in his place... he is working for CRST trucking company..... and since they hired him the companys that he had
aplyed for a job. are just now calling him to set up an inter view for a job.... and we just say to bad sucker. you lost a great worker...he went to them and they said no or they only hired him if he had twi yrs experiance..... so since CRST was one of the companys that were recruting at his school thats were he went to get a job . they took him a month after he graduated. they had to retrain him.. so even now there are still some things he needs to work on... but hes getting there....tim is a great worker and trys really hard.....thats one thing our whole family does we try and are great workers at everything we do.......tama
