    I'm still looking for a decent place to call home when it comes to finding a job here. I was working for a local fuel delivery company (FRTL) but was let go after 9 months of employment. I have about 13 years of experience hauling just about anything except cars and cattle. 8 of those years were spent over the road. I'm basically looking for a company that will only keep me away from my family for 7-10 days at a time. If anyone can throw a few good company names out there I would greatly appreciate it. JB, Schneider and Warner are out of the question. For sh1ts and giggles I gave them all a call and they are nuts when it comes to home time and pay. It's been 3 months since I've been let go and it's driving me nuts. Again, thanks to all that reply.

    I've been here for about a year now because of a family issue (my father died) and finding a trucking job other than hauling fuel is a pain in the butt. I hope for our sake that someone can help us out.

    I live in Jacksonville, FL and recently a company called Cheney Brothers (CBI) has posted some job openings. They also indicate that they have openings in Pensacola. Looks like a good day job and getting home nightly. Their web site is www.cheneybrothers.com. You all might be able to get something with them.

    May Trucking has a terminal in Pensacola but you will be out at least 3-4 weeks at a time. Nice company though.

    Oh, and last I heard there was somewhat of a hiring freeze there at May. They are picky on who they choose so keep that in mind. A lot of applications come in, not many even get to the orientation point. Maybe one or two a month I heard. Good luck.

    There used to be some work over there, worth a try. Not much around pensacola, maybe paper mills north of there, good luck.
