    Will they hire me out of Tennessee? I live 30 mi from plant in Shelbyville,have always kept them in the back of my mind,but never took the leap,I have been driving 14 years for a lot of companies,I am looking for some stability,Been hauling reefers for 12 years,so I am used to the b.s. associated with that. Need to know if I can take my truck home or if I have to leave it at the terminal,plant would be o.k. with gas at $4.00/gal don't want to make a round tripo every week ,any information will be appreciated

    There are other large companies in your area, BigG and TITAN, a couple smaller ones (can't think of the names), and what about all those horse farms? No jobs there? BTW, hope Tyson works out 4 ya. I looked at them before, seemed to be OK.

    The REALity is it appears your driving history limits your hire-ability. Otherwise you would have enough options to not hafta surf thru here asking for help. I was just offering suggestions thinking MAYBE you were new to your lil slice of TN. Have a blast a Tyson bro.

    I can be hired anywhere with 1.75 million safe miles,and 15 years driving experience w/o an accident,The reason I post on here is to get information about the companies i am interested in.And taking it all into consideration before making a choice. I do not need someone like you to lecture me on what i should and shouldn't do. I made a bad choice with the company I am with now,and do not want to repeat it. I ahve about 10 job offers right now and Tyson seems to be the best bet. But thank you for you advise and ridicule and question of my character. Thanks again:biggrin_25522:
