#1 I NEVER had a service failure.
#2 I used to train for CFI.
#3 I used to make fair money with CFI.
#4 I NEVER received a "safety" violation of any kind.
#5 I never had an accident/ticket.
#6 I was within 20k of having 360K miles with CFI
#7 My CURRENT company has been around just as long as CFI.

A recent meeting with Mr. Hatfield provided me with the incentive to leave. He plainly told me if I expected to run more than 2400 miles a week, or have more time at home (instead of the truck stops) I should seek another job.

Taking the CFI statement of "Never settling for less" to heart, I left.

Now I only run about 2500(average) miles a week, I am home 3 nights a week...of which 48 hours are consecutive. And I am making MORE money.

CFI PAYCHECK comparison...

My last check with current company.. 2756 miles = $1636.00 pre-tax with 2 1/2 days home

THE SAME CHECK with CFI would have been $1019.72 pre-tax...with NO HOME TIME.

My health benefits are BETTER. And, my dispatcher does not ask for my truck number when I call in. She knows me by my FIRST name. I do not have to give my last, for her to look up on her PC.


The extra miles and the 1/2 day reduction at home, was of my own choosing.

Debi,

With all the bad things I have to say about CFI. I DO recommend them for students.

Check my post "Good, Bad, and Ugly" in Company DAC reports on this site.
