For awhile now I've been running as a team with Fedex ground and my co-driver is facing some serious heart problems so he's done driving for some time, so I'm starting this over again.
I have an offer as a driver merchandiser with Coca-Cola. The job is union, great bennies, pay is $133/day plus $0.10 for every case delivered. (supposedly 500-700 a day)
It's a good offer but really I'm not sure I want to be local.
So the old lady says I can stay on the road if she can ride along with the dog.
I've looked into Melton and Freymiller, they have cameras which doesn't really bother me that much...yet. I liked Decker but no pet policy. I tried Big G but they weren't interested in my 6 months of experience.
So we'll see where this journey leads. Hoping to find a flatbed company with APUs, riders, and pets where I can really settle down and stay put for awhile.
Wish me luck
Goodbye Fedex, on to???

Rider & pet policy:
Holland Enterprises - reefers - rider from day one, take her to orientation.
Magnum Ltd. - reefers
Pride Transport - reefers & flatbed
Navajo Express - reefers
Magnum website has 12 mos. experience required, but that's incorrect; they hire with no experience.
You looked at Freymiller; seems a good choice also.Last edited: Feb 11, 2016

As you see I kind of got my answer after my teammate tore his aorta. Made the decision to switch easier ha, he'll be okay though. On long term disability now.
Do you know if Pride has cameras yet? I know they have a flatbed division. -
