R.E. West

Hey Man, Did you find out any information?

 

Not yet. Haven’t made it to the yard yet. It will be later this afternoon.

 

Did they tell you anything?

 

Yes, I talked to Steven today. Thing is, they are only bringing students that need a CDL from TN and KY at the moment because of covid. If you are brand New but already have a CDL they have more leeway with location at the moment because they can go ahead and put you right in the truck with a trainer. Doesn’t make a whole lot of sense other than not having people bunked up I. The bunk house together for a while.

 

That sucks but thank you

 

You’re welcome

 

Does R E West Hire drivers from Florida ?

 

I think it depends on what part of Florida and right now they’re only hiring from other states if you already have a CDL. No matter how long you have had it. If you need a CDL training to get your CDL they are only hiring from TN and KY at the moment.

 

Are they still paying peanuts?
Last I looked at them they were one of the lowest paying carriers out there

 

Well, that depends on how you define peanuts. They shoot straight on the pay across the board, no bs fuel bonuses etc. that are unattainable. last I knew the starting pay for someone just getting their CDL was on par with most companies and if you wanna run, they have the freight.
