    From their web site:
    If they think that is "TOP PAY".....they got another thing comming. The BEST you can start out at with any amount of experience is .29 cpm? My very first trucking job over 17 years ago paid me .26 cpm with ZERO experience.

    Anybody chooses this company; they get what they diserve!

    amen yea and the guy was a real ahole when we asked questions and then he said they will start you out 2 cents higher if you have your hazmat but you go a year without a raise sounds kinda phoney to me :biggrin_25511:

    Here's the crux of EVERY recruiter you will speak with, from this day forward.

    You WILL make money.

    You WILL get miles.

    You WILL get good home time.

    They will all say this. It's up to you, to choose the best liar.

    I don't think that ALL recruiters lie, but many either lie or omit certain facts. Sometimes it isn't the recruiter but the applicant. You need to ask a lot of questions. It might help you to write down all the questions that you may have before talking with a recruiter. Some things that you may want to know from a recruiter is pay scale, detention pay, home time, equipment, etc., You may also want to know if you will be with a trainer and for how long. I think that home time is probably as important as anything else to drivers, especially starting out.
