THEY TELL EVERYONE THEY HAVE SOLO! They dont. When I left the company Jan 10 I'd been there since Feb 09. I came in with a partner who left and since then had been through 10 maybe different ones. One of my partners decided to quit while I was on home-time and I sat at home for almost twomonths! My last partner failed her drug test while I was on home-time, and I refused to drive with a man, so I was ordered to clean out my truck and turn it in and then go home (all the way back to IL) to wait on a female codriver.

I have heard many many stories of recruiters telling drivers that they will come in to drive solo and it is a lie!
