    yep. Next time you see one check out the tractor. They say service transport. I heard they are making all the enterprise guys reapply to service transport and start over on years of service for vacation weeks. Pretty much screws over the guy who has been there 20 years.

    Call the terminal manager. They really don't have a recruiting department. 75 miles might be too far away

    Go to SCHNEIDER! DON'T make the Prime mistake...Schneider will give you excellent training, and they won't make you pay to work there/WORK FOR FREE...Your experience at Schneider will get you a better job at Carry, Superior, Heniff, or Dana/Liquid Transport, or LCL Bulk, or HR Ewell, or even Caledonia Haulers, or even a smaller but regional tanker comany. Or you may like it at Schneider, and they may like you, and they'll make you a trainer. Good luck. Again, don't go to Prime.

    KAG/TSC kept the worst parts of Enterprise (Central Dispatch) and got rid of the best parts (401k Contribution and a company funded retirement.) KAG literally said those benefits were unheard of in trucking. The health insurance plan also got fine-tuned (higher deductibles/out of pockets, etc). We all had to re-apply, physical, whizzer, and get this a DRIVING TEST. The TSC H&S guy who gave the driving tests literally had more tattoos than skin - had them going up his neck that a turtle neck shirt couldn't cover. Sorry with that many tattoos I don't think you should be in management. Oh yeah - I quit.
