Why does JB have constant ads for yard jockeys at this account? The ads are almost every day on CL! I've never seen so many ads for jockey jobs anywhere else!
Inquiring mind would like to know........
Please,

They're likely for the C&S grocery warehouses. Both are extremely tight, overcrowded and pretty much despised by everyone who delivers anything there. That and the last round of yard jockeys at Newburgh had a bad rash of equipment damage a few months ago... Several of the drop and hook carriers were getting brand new trailers torn up.

Having worked on that account before and after jb hunt got the account allow me to shed some light on whats the deal there. First of all that yard is tight as heck. The hours suck and your constantly moving. Did some trailers get smacked i'm sure of it. Can you make money working that account yes. However I didn't walk away from there I RAN!! I drove out of newburgh and chester for 10 years. Jb hunt is a strict safety first company. You tear up equipment your fired. Which would cause the openings. There is also ALOT of favoritism and that has a lot to do with it. The account manager and yard coordinator are both female and have been there 10 years so not hard to figure that 1 out. Of the 2 go to chester. Its crazier than you can imagine but you have way more room and less b.s . Anything else you need let me know

I know they keep calling me trying to get me to work there, but I don't like having sides on my trailer.
