National Carriers "The Elite Fleet" Yeah Right!

National Carriers WAS owned by National Beef until I believe the first of this year. Who owns us now? pffft hell i dont even know. Ask Ed!!

There is no option at NCI,its automatic. Any load under 600 miles loaded gets the higher pay rate at National{I think its 600}Empty miles are still paid at reg rate.


Why am I up at 2:30am? Some dipchit companies cant receive at reg flippin hours

If National Carriers WAS owned by National Beef Company, that means they were most likely hauling a lot of their own product from the National Beef plants.

Who will National Carriers most likely be hauling for now?

I TRULY and GENUINELY do hope that the drivers working for National Carriers are working all year round with consistent miles and freight.

God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

 

I cant speak for any other driver at NCI,but I got brand new truck april 2011 with 40 miles on it. I have 283k on it now.Gives me a average of 11,320 per month. Minus 10% out of route takes me to 10188 divided by 4 is 2547 per week long term average.

Its to late/early for this old brain doing simple math at 3:30 am.

 

I think you misunderstood my post. As I said, I have never driven for NCI so I only know what I learned back in the 70's.
I mentioned that I pulled a circus wagon back (Monfort Transportation, Greeley, co).
Monfort sold out to con agra foods. It was at that time that I left and went to work for Transport Electric out of hereford, Tx.

Be Safe!

 

Did you stroll in the Monfort lane?

 

National Carriers is still 100% owned by National Beef. National Beef has transferred majority ownership. Here is a quote from Drovers Cattle network. Leucadia National Corp., a holding company with investments in casinos, copper mining, wineries and other businesses, agreed to pay $867.9 million for a 79-percent stake in National Beef Packing Co., LLC, the No. 4 U.S. beef processor.
Tim Klein, chief executive with Kansas City, Mo.-based National Beef, said he looks forward to Leucadia "bringing its unique perspective to our industry," according to a Dec. 5 statement posted on National Beef's website.
The deal will "widen the scope of opportunities available to us and will further strengthen our ability to expand our business and solidify our position as the premier global beef processor," Klein said

 

As a matter of fact I did so much strollin' in the Monfort lane I had at one time 4 different drivers licenses. My wife had two file folders in the file cabinet at home. One had a smiley face on it and said paid tickets and the other had a sad face on it and said unpaid tickets. This was in the day when you got your bills in one hand and a baggy of pills in the other hand and the boss said ya got thirty two hours to get to NYC.

 

Thank you for your memories. I truck vicariously through you!

 

This is normal for them. When I made the mistake of working for them, we lost about 10 out of 28 people in orientation. They do not check any history before you show up.

 

That is a 36% turnover rate, over 1/3 of the people. WOW!!
