    I worked for them in the days before they went to electronic logs and their dispatchers felt a trip from Boise to Denver was doable in 11 hours......Im sure they have had the infamous Rude Awakening since then.....I have no idea what their starting pay is now. I think mine was .38 cpm back in 2010. I have noticed they now have the same, Drive, Team, Lease, Train signs on the rear doors of their trailers that England does....

    bumper i think alot of these companies espeicially reefer were used to pushing the envelope as far as they could, but we both know times are a chainging.. giltner did you right though as far as your pay was concerned. i think alot of us drivers that started back in the 80's we had families to raise and you would figure out how to get that load delivered on time no matter what,or you would probly would be let go by the carrier.. now enter 2012 and the goverment is going to micro manage everything we do. so are you still doing refrigerated trucking. thanks again bumper

    No I am no longer in the OTR side of trucking. I work as a contractor to Navistar moving their show vehicles around and doing their Engineering Division road testing. It has its ups and downs
    but I do not miss those 3am deliveries at Walmart!!
