I worked for Shaffer until May of 2023 when my spouse started having health issues. I had to come off the road for her, ( she rode with me about 75 per cent of the time)... Diagnosed last fall with uterine cancer, and she is now in chemo treatments until May. I hope to come back to Shaffer (Deland) after that, but in the meantime, I get out on the road virtually through your channel. All the ups and downs out there, the twists and turns that pop up daily...I relate to them all. Stay safe.

Oh Gary…I’m so sorry to hear that! You had told us you had to come off the road for a bit due to her health, but didn’t know more details. I send some extra special prayer for her healing and full recovery! May the chemo treatments be easy to tolerate and bring her back to full health. We are glad you are able to be home with her to lend your full support. We happily have you ride with us in the meantime!!! The reefers will wait. Sending you good energy and big hugs!!!

Majority of the time P&G is always like that u should never break the seal u should always check the bol to verify if the seal matches the bol if not it’s always the guard shack to do so always due to the fact a lot of truck drivers have been fd up with shippers that they would steel merchandise from them and that’s how they would know if u have broken the seal u would have to dock that trailer to the dock again for them to verify the load count again

Hi Kevin and Tanya. I just finished my 2nd day of orientation at Crete in Wilmer TX and live in the north Dallas area. You guys are one of the biggest reasons I joined Crete and love the company so far. Your videos are so informative and entertaining. Never get tired of watching. You guys are the coolest trucking couple and hope I get to meet y'all on the road at some point. Take care, be safe, and pleasant journeys. My name is Bill. Have a great one! 😊🚛👍🏻
@TheJoyofTrucking
@TheJoyofTrucking 6 месяцев назад
Hi Bill! Welcome to Crete! We are happy that our videos have been helpful to you!!! And we’re glad you are enjoying orientation and your start with Crete! We hope you have a long and wonderful career here! Be sure to reach out to us if you have any questions we can help with! Be sure to introduce yourself if you see us somewhere! As a matter of fact, Kevin might be swinging through Wilmer tomorrow (or heading straight through to Houston) depending on traffic and weather. If you haven’t done so yet, please remember to use our code, SLOKEV. We’d be very grateful!!! Who were you driving for before now? Are you going OTR or Regional?
@billpeters1436
@billpeters1436 6 месяцев назад
I will definitely give them your driver code tomorrow. I was driving for Averitt express out of Cookeville TN for 8 years regional truckload but wasn't getting any freight and sitting for days. I am going to be driving in the mid-south 6 regional account out of Wilmer. Thank you for replying and for the welcome! 😊👍🏻
@TheJoyofTrucking
@TheJoyofTrucking 6 месяцев назад
@@billpeters1436 Yes…of course…welcome! And thank you so much for using our code! 🙏🙏🙏 Sorry to hear you were sitting so much! That shouldn’t happen here. At Crete a lot depends on your dispatch team. Be sure to be proactive, communicate, do your trip planning and offer better solutions if a preplan they give you doesn’t use your hours wisely. It seems that the dispatcher sometimes prefers to give you the closest load rather than looking at the time you might have to wait. Just communicate. Sometimes they can find you a better load or move an appointment. It’s not about just being a ‘yes’ man. It’s about being productive. For you and the company! Hope that little insight helps you. 😃🤗🤩
