H&R Transport

Well I guess I'll ignore any calls I get from H&R after readin this. I put in a pre application on their website today. I currently work for a service company in the oil patch in Alberta but was looking to get out of it to find something with a little more steady income. In my current line of work I make good money in the run of the year but it is so up and down that it is getting frustrating. I guess I'll keep looking around for a bit.

 

I will never work for H&R, they pay cheap, used to be 39 cent/m , now they up to 42 cent, still low. and the funny thing is company driver have to buy your own load locks......that's suck ( looked on their web site) .ewwwww.

 

Since few other companies were brought up,

New driver, SGT 2000. Good plan or bad?

Thx.

 

42 cents is low???Where are you going to work and make much more than that now days??

 

2years ago, I worked for a company that pay 45 cent/m going south. 48 cent/m for north. plus pick & drop. At that time H&R only pay 39 cent/ m for going from alberta to washington. and now I still get pay 45cent/m plus hourly wage for waiting time..with another conpany......

 

I was just looking at Kriska's website and if I'm reading it correctly they start you out at .37/mile and you can make .41/mile after 5 years.

 

I know McKevitt offered me a city haul job, Thunder bay to Winnipeg and all points in between at .27 mile. Even as a newbie I thought that was very low.

 

Does anyone know anything about Ron Rick Refrigerated out of Edmonton?

 

If you are company driver there are better company's to chose from.
