Thanks for this information. Greatly Appreciated!

Pepsi keeps posting for drivers but wont call or respond to your call. UPS is the same way.

Early this year I applied to Pepsi and after a couple of months of waiting and thinking they did not want to talk to me, I finally went for an interview and then a road test.

I declined the position and this is why, the job is part-time (which I was aware of) however it is 3 days a week maximum and I was told that they could not do any more than 3 days because it would be considered full time and they cannot do that. He said that I could expect 1 or 2 days a week and he also said that he had drivers who only had this job and were phoning him all the time for more work - that got me thinking. The pay is mileage based - 36cpm. which is not bad if you are getting the miles, but 1 or 2 days a week..not worth it in my opinion.

When I ask about the opportunity of going on as a full-time driver, he bascially said that someone has to die first and even then I would be too far down the list, he said I would have a better chance at a fulltime position working at the warehouse.

This was my experience with them..I am not saying they are bad, but when a company is constantly advertising there has be some reason behind it.
