    Don't judge a company on pay. You've got to look at the area also. Sure you can make $30 in L.A. but it cost you $35 an hour to live there. The best places are where you find the low cost of living with high paying jobs. There's still a few places around but getting harder to find. I have found the reverse in Southern Maryland where the cost of living is high and the wages are low. The only reason I can figure is that the area is close to the Capital and all the government jobs. A while back Las Vegas was a low cost area with decent wages but you had to find a company that was homebased out of state. You get on with a local job and you get paid peanuts. I'll bet the dealers are still paid under $10 and hour. I'd be real surprised if they went about $15.

    Do you know anything about this company? You live near their terminal in Lakeville, NY. They have beautiful equipment, and my brother is currently looking for a new job. Thanks.

    Oh Yeah? Tell us about how hard you are screwing over the veteran Enterprise drivers you just acquired. They grandfathered in for vacation and such?

    Maybe you should recruit in the help wanted forum . You've been on a buying spree in the northeast , and most of the talk around the loading racks is bad!

    Ps I thought quality carriers was still #1....... o well......

    Me too. According to some adds I heard on Sirius Schneider has "the largest tanker freight base". I know that is BS. I don't see as many pumpkin tankers out here as I did a few years ago.

    Superior hires students. Our closest terminal to Meadville is Karns City, about 75 miles away. You'd have to contact the terminal to see if they are willing to take an entry level driver and what school you need to attend.


    I heard someone mention Enterprise being bought by kag a few days. That sucks if they are going to screw over the veteran etc guys.
