Pemberton Truck Lines

Stabob :
Can you update once more about your working hours? I drove for them for two months back in 2007 and left as soon as I had another job offered to me. The reasons? The pay (32cpm) and that pesky 14 hour rule you mentioned a couple of months ago. I repeatedly had a late night pickup at petsmart that I had to deliver to the Miami area the next morning only to be told they wanted me to pick up a recycling load near Tampa at 3pm.
I was considering giving Pemberton another chance after striking out with two other small local outfits this year, but not if they still expect their drivers to run over the 11 and or 14 hours rules. I'm not good at saying no, so its best for me to not put myself in that situation in the first place, especially since they have qualcomm.

 

Sorry to hear about them doing like that... kinda sucks!!! Going local with IRT or regional??? I know last time I called them they didn't have anything but 3-4 weeks out, too much for my situation at home but....
Good luck with them and keep us posted how it goes!!!

 

Man I don't see how guys do this job for .32 a mile! At 2000 miles a week that's $640 gross! For being away from home and all that is familiar..are freakin jokin?

 

Stabob, you still with IRT??? Haven't been following on here too much lately and have lost track of quite a few people...

 

Wow, low miles at .32 sucks. But hell no different the Heartland, .38 cpm and the most I got was 2100 doing otr, or service as they call it. But I was regional driver. Once I asked to do regional, the most miles I did was 902! What a joke, starved for the whole month I was there. Surprised I lasted that long.

 

.32cpm???? ouch
