Too many job applications?

Sounds like the issue I've been going through the past several years. Plenty of work to be found at places that have their own applications on their respective websites like the LTL and fuel hauling companies. But when I get the job offer, the relocation and apartment hunting expenses make me drop the ball.

 

You applied to those companies then turned them down why waste their and yours time

 

Seems to be a bit of a game with getting the real dirt on some of these companies. The recruiters and HR will say anything to try and get you on board. Then after you jot down the notes you got from them, it's time to seek out drivers in the actual field with that company and see if measures up to any degree. Pay and benefits are always good. But my biggest concerns are "time/days off" and how badly the drivers are micromanaged throughout the worknight.

There's been plenty of flaws over here at IRT where I've been for several years now. But if there's one thing they're good at, it's that the amount of autonomy seems to be quite good compared to other places I've been. And no driver facing cameras either as of late. I still want to jump to other places for different reasons, but I also want to make sure it's a place where I know I could put some decent time in and not think "what did I get myself into" after getting on board.

 

Sheesh, I didn’t know Sirius/XM was still around? that is some ad targeting. Venture to guess trucking is what keeps them afloat. I thought they went bankrupt a decade or so back.

 

With the advent of other live-streaming media and radio platforms on smartphones, it's a wonder they're still staying afloat. Probably all the life-long Stern listeners that signed up in the early 00's for lifetime subs. Definitely not the platform for music any more.

 

I listen to AM radio more than anything or audio books. Last time I listened to the satellite radio is when old Trucking Bozo and Bill Mack were on
