Question:
Any one ever been to there dallas terminal? Or stayed at the quest Inn?
Answer:
Yep, the place is a zoo. Lots and lots of trucks and people all day long. Office staff is more often than not good people.
Mechs in shop, well not as nice, mostly overworked and dont care about doing anything more than they have too. You'll find that at all the big terminals. Your just another trk number waiting in line. They will get to you when the get to you.(Some are not above taking a tip to move you along)
Be careful walking over to the Williams trk stop. Lot of local low lifes running around. Not as bad as it used to be but still not too safe late at night.
The only time I will go there is if Im told too I dont just stop by for the fun of it. I will throw my own money into the fuel tanks if I have to just to stay away from going there for fuel.Same with breakdown proplems if I can and be safe I will drive my trk far enough away from there so they cant order me back for repairs. Or I make the breakdown sound worse than it is so I can get road service or a closer place for repair.
Dont have time to sit for 3 or 4 days waiting for them to get around to fix'n the trk.
Thats just life with a big trk company all are the same more or less.

Answer:
Good God! The DALLAS Terminal???
Well...it's not as bad as it used to be. They fired the old terminal manager after the cops dragged him out in handcuffs. He was running prostitution in his spare time...
Never having to go to the Dallas terminal again is one of the rasons I just run Western Regional for Werner. "Zoo" is an understatement.
But to do orientation and get a truck -- probably a good place. Lots of new equipment comes into the Dallas terminal.
Good luck on Monday.
