    :yes2557:My brother worked for Tyson back in the early 1990 for about 10 years He said it was a pretty good company He got sick out west one time and they flew him home. He was on a route where he was home everyday and had troubles with the dispatcher he said she was a B..... This was in Alabama and he quit. I was thinking about them also I've been driving about 20 years but have never been there. I wonder does anybody know if they are cutting there trucks back to 62 also. :biggrin_2552:

    ok you forgot to explain to them the other side of this company.....

    My neighbor use to work for these crooks....

    Yes drop and hook is correct.....but you did not mention the 2 days sitting in middle of some corn feild with no truck stops and waiting on loads.....or sitting in some smelly meat packing house parking lot dying of boardom for sometimes 2-3 days...he has told me all about tyson....

    ALSO YOU FORGOT TO MENTION IF YOU LEAVE THEY WILL BACK CHARGE YOU ON PISS TESTS AND PHYSICAL...

    LAST BUT NOT LEAST YOU FORGOT TO MENTION THE JERK-OFF'S YOU MUST DEAL WITH AT THE MEAT PACKING HOUSES AND THE TOTAL CIRCUS OF MANAGEMENT TRYING TO GET YOU A LOAD OUT....WHILE YOU SIT AND ROT DAY AFTER DAY.....

    I PULLED TYSON BEEF AND SEEN AND ALSO HEARD THE CRY'S FROM ALL THERE DRIVERS.....NO WAY WOULD I GO THERE.

    You also forgot to tell them for every 3 weeks out you may get to see family for 2 days.....

    And a very slow truck,which the trucks are very nice and confortable -true...

    never would i subject my life to that.....
