KTI NEWS

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!   I hope everyone had a great December and a wonderful holiday.   We hope that the Newsletters are helping to keep you informed and up to date on all that’s going on with Knowlton Trucking!

INSURANCE – We are officially going with a new insurance carrier effective in March during our Enrollment time. A representative will be coming to you and sitting down and helping you with your enrollment process. There will also be life insurance options. 

NEW VACATION POLICY – Please email Karla Kilgore at karlakilgore3@gmail.com when needing to request time off for vacation. She will get with the appropriate manager on getting approval for that time needed. 

WEBSITE UPDATE - KTI is updating our Knowltontrucking.com website. We would still love for you to send us videos and testimonials to be placed on the site of why YOU like working at KTI. KTI is also working to create a blog, so we can also post the newsletter and any other important information to the site. Head on over to www.knowltontrucking.com and check it out and let us know what you think!

FUEL CARDS – We are so excited to be getting out our new fuel cards to everyone. We will be getting these to you the first week of January. You will be hearing more about this from you managers. 

SAFETY IS IMPORTANT - When weather is below 15 degrees fuel treatment is important. Please get with your manager if you are needing any additional amounts in your trucks. It is essential to make sure your trucks are plugged in when the temperatures are near or below freezing. Let your manager know if you are needing an extension cord for your truck. 

If you have a safety tip for us, please email me at karlakilgore3@gmail.com

PAY IT FORWARD – We have more to share in December on how our people paid it forward! I do realize with the business of November and December that some of you are just getting your money. Let’s extend this through January. Keep me posted on how you use your money to “Pay it forward!”

Bryan Knowlton – Gave to Salvation Army

Cheyenne Curtis – Towards his church functions

Lyle Nelson – Gave towards the Athena Strand girl that was abducted and killed. She had a go fund me.

Ashley Knowlton – Gave toward cancer fund for a 10-year-old girl

HEALTHY TIP -

One can of Coke is 140 calories. Over the course of a year, one soda a day would equal a total of 51,100 calories. You must burn about 3,500 calories to lose one pound of fat. Dividing 51,100 calories by 3,500 (one pound of fat) equals 14.5 pounds a person will save over the course of a year by eliminating one can of soda per day from their diet.

THINGS TO BE AWARE OF……
