Attention all company drivers!!!

What's wrong with being a nazi state? You should see how we do things in california.....

 

doesn't the whole paper license thing just invite itself to fraud?

I mean what if someone steals you real license in the mail?

that license is just sitting there in your mail box all day.

 

I've just passed my 1 year anniversary with USA Truck (Jan 7). From reading this forum (and others); talking with other drivers from other companies; and from what I've seen, I can conclude that pretty much ALL companies have their fair share of bull manure you'll have to deal with. Including USA.

That being said: despite some of the complaints you've probably already heard, USA really isn't all that bad. Things tend to get a little better after you do your year: they took me out of that beat-up International and put me in a 2011 Freightshaker Cascadia (it's even a 10-speed Eaton-Fuller manual - I can't stand automatics). I average about 2800 miles a week (notice that I said average - some weeks I barely run, some weeks I get worked like a white-mouthed government mule). My paychecks won't have that tuition payment taken from them anymore. I'm no longer turned down to 60 mph (so now I'm as slow as any other company rig out there, rather than being slower).

Don't let yourself get fooled, though: at this point there's still so much you have yet to learn (I know that's true for me, at least). The second you think you know it all you should probably just turn in your CDL and stop driving. At the same time you can give yourself a small pat on the back for having lasted a year; out of your entire class there might be one or two of you still driving after 12 months. That's not an exaggeration - the flake-out rate really is that high.

Well, I wish you guys luck when you get to school. If you make through training and orientation maybe I'll see you out there - my truck number's 2932.

 

Looks like we found another lifetime driver. Be careful there, Tech...the smell of diesel fuel in the morning gets real addictive. And always remember to try and have some fun out there.

 

umm... he said usa (62mph) truck. i dont disrespect you or anyone else there but...
if people would just quit lining up to drive slow trucks, it will change
if it does not run what the manufacturer made it to do - i wont drive it
my 2 cents

and by the way-
portillos in chicago, rockys in queens, arts in cleveland - great food

 

I have seen!! California pants! zippers in the back! lol

 

zippers in back, give easy access to the prize !

 

Swift like a turtle in heat?

 

i am confused why would you get in triuble if the negative statements were true.. Anybody that knows anything about usa truck knows that they are a tipical chicken #### trucking outfit like most other truckload companies... So i say to you usa trucking treat your drivers like they are humans instead of
animals and they wont talk negative......duhhhhhhhhhhh

 

don't let the furher hear those comments!!

he will send you to a death camp!
