maverick did not have 1600 drivers when i started even w/ acqusition of scnieder spec. and they certainly did not have that when i quit in september of 08

I was in Little Rock in April of 08 and the employee roster there listed over 1235 Maverick trucks and I was told by the fleet mgr that altogether that the co had about 1600 trucks. If you go the Maverick website it lists a total of 1500 trucks today. I liked my time there. I had serious home issues that prevented me fm continuing with them. I also received points for a couple of " incidents". I did not attain the max number of points that was set for dismissal though. As you will read, I did not just pull the numbers I presented out of thin air. Have a great day.

dude i take no offense but when i started my number was 15?? that was 2 years ago and it was below 1400 i believe when i left. whats the chance your 1st name is James i was in orientation with a guy from ashland

No, not James, David. I think I know of the guy you are thinking of. He lives over near Greenup , Ky which is close to Ashland. This guy came out the tech sch I went to for cdl. He had nothing but good to say about Maverick at that time. I think most companies are hurting right now. I don't agree with the way a lot of them are treating their drivers now, including Maverick.( At least from what I read in these posts)

Hoping you get the site up soon-looking to relocate out of NC.

OK, I am working on this now and bought a new template. Will add much more as I get the chance to do so. Good Trucking Jobs is a work in progress and will just take me some time to manually do this all. GL all!

I'm wondering why you are not following this model from the original approach in your new forum?

I can't really think of any precedent where job seekers pay to look up jobs. The source of revenue is traditionally shouldered by the ad placers.

What would I expect to get for my $20 right NOW if I paid to use the forum? And why would I expect any answers if I paid the $20 to post a job?

...not to question such a wiseone!
