    How is post-buyout P2 for you?

    Well we are an Conway team that came over and are still doing great. All 3 loads we have done since P2 took over have still been our old Conway customers. It will probably take a few weeks for the customers to get aqainted with the buyout themselves. They probably need to hammer out contracts...

    Enough with Panther Bashing...

    Well Dave you are correct in all your have said. When Fed Ex took over Robert's Express they said they didn't even want the expediters to begin with, but the upper ups at Robert's told them they wouldn't sell it unless it was sold as one package. We were with FedEx's white glove division and had...

    Trans Alliance Bank - Flying J

    We use the TAB bank account too and it has been great for us. We have udes it for over a year. We are only drivers for a fleet owner and that is also how we get our weekly paycheck from the owner. So much easier that waiting on a mailed check to the house and all the hassles to go along with...

    Questions about Panther

    McBride, Glad you got your package and Conway pay. We were on a load to Barstow,CA when this all happened. Talk about being scared to death. And we only drive for a fleet owner. Panther has done really good by us. We decided to wait in Ontario,CA for our package and on Tues. were offered a load...

    Thank you for the warm welcome! As far as we know from talking to Conway dispatchers some of the dispatchers were offered jobs with Panther. Not sure how many. Some of the others were offered jobs with other Conway divisions. Not sure about the actual numbers of trucks, but from what Panther is...

    con-way sells out

    Yes so far Panther has made the transition great for us as well. We decided to wait for our permit and signage package and not even did we get that and got a great run out of CA to Chicago. So far everyone has been helpful in the whole deal. Might have questions for all you old time Panther guys...

    con-way sells out

    Well first off they did not go into bankruptcy. The president of Conway didn't want this expedite division anymore because they were having to farm out a lot of loads to other expedite customers anyway. They said they did't have the trucks to cover the load amounts they were getting. They sold...

    Weapons

    Even though I have a kitchen area in the truck, I did get in trouble for having steak knives in my utensil drawer when crossing into Canada, so therefore I do not go to Canada anymore for that reason.

    Getting Fuel

    Believe me I am as clutsy as it comes, but I fuel the truck a lot of times instead of my husband. I sincerely feel that that is one of the responsibilties of driving it in the first place. I do my PTI at the same time as I like to make sure my tires and lights are working properly. But if he has...

    What's this?

    My last nerve is guys in other trucks using the parking lot and not using the bathroom to do their business. I almost had a gallon jug of it dropped right over my head. Yuck! Please guys make the effort to walk to the bathroom. P.S. Thanks for this women's forum this is great!

    Do you talk or argue?

    I agree with a lot of the things said on here about this topic. The most important thing though is having your space sometimes. It's not like having a job at home where you both go your seperate ways to work and then come home and talk about your day. Sometimes even the best marriage has it's...

    What to do???

    Some companies do require you use their pre=printed logbooks. Like Conway does. They are the scanable kind and they will not accept any others but theirs. Your answer of buying one logbook in a t/s and copying the recap in the front of it sounded l.ike the best and cheapest option. You can take...
