    Hi all i have a few questions since now i am in scramble mode to find a company for my 1st trucking job and am thinking gordon/gti. Does anyone know what the training pay is how long is the training and the average weekly pay on the cali nevada arizona run? Thats the run im thinking i know i wont get rich on it but i would like an average amount on how much i can expect if its not to personal to ask lol I know better than to trust the recruiter on what they say. Any and all input would be appreciated thanks guys and gals

    well, when i went training it was 30 days on the road, 375 a week. they well give your trainer your packet which shows what what you need to complete each week. starting pay 30 cents, average week runs between 2300 to 2800 miles, if you stay for two weeks they go home for two days you will better and make more, you will run most of the time between L.A area and lathrop.

    And they slip-seat and try to force you to chain, even if you say the conditions are too unsafe
