If you had to make a choice

Neither, the Dirty Secret within Reefer Company's is the long uncompensated waiting bs......In order to perform well, you must be a ROBOT.

 

Live from the scene ....

Today...just got up from my 10 hr break ...i drove 2 hours to show up ON TIME for an 1100 am appt....

Been told it won't load till after 1800 tonight...

NO DETENTION PAY....NO NOTHING

....and dispatch expects me to take my 10 here at the shipper and run ALL NIGHT to the customer.

ANY QUESTIONS ?

 

Maybe at FFE... you may as well know that's a division of KLLM these days. So do ya want to make some money (Prime) or sit around waiting (FFE)? Same goes for training costs... free (at Prime after 1 year's service) or whatever you pay at FFE?

 

We know all reefer companies wait on loads, whether it's meat or potatoes. Prime doesn't have a one over FFE in that regard.

 

Looks to me like maybe you should jump at whichever one hires you first. AND STAY WITH THEM FOR A WHILE.

NOTE: I don't know anything about either company, but if that is all the choices you have do what you have to do for the experience.

 

Only 12 to 18 months then it dosn't really matter. Just get it done.

 

Prime. They have tankers and flats.

 

Really? With a competent fleet manager that isn't the case PackRat.
