    There's always one in a crowd, he drove all of 6 months with the company and he knows everything. I talked to the COO by myself the other day, great man. He said his door is always open if I ever have a problem. Now I know I will have some times that I get mad, but I will deal with my problems in a professional way not by bashing a company that I came looking for a job not them coming looking for me.

    it's like this. you cccc.

    EVERYONE thinks highly of what they are doing. the company is great. the boss is great. making lotsa money. yada yada.

    but after 6 months. the story takes a complete 180.

    it don't matter what company you work for or who you are. it all starts out good but it don't last.

    i've never worked for this company. but i've been driving long enough. and i've been on this forum for over 2 years. i've seen LOTSA stories.

    we're all glad that your happy. but let's see how you feel after 6 months. and how many in your class are still working there.

    i'm not out to harp you down. but you'll quickly learn that in reality. your nothing more then a p.o.s. to them. or any company. and as for the school. there's hidden secrets that you don't know about.

Dont see how they make a profit. But overall they,ve been alright. (so far)Overall their no diff than any other co. ive ever worked for.

    Thanks for the palm reading, since you know how I am going to feel in 6 months I'll start to make plans for this. Seriously I can deal with alot of things drove for 2 other companies, ya I will get pissed sometimes but what the hick doesnt everyone. Its the way you deal with isssues that make you a Professional driver. Trust me I dispatch for 6 months with a company that I also drove for. If a driver always complaining and talking bad about the company why would I give him a load already bad mouthing me and the company. I love the industry have a Bachelor in logistics but I hate the way drivers talk trash about a company like their always out to get them. The 2 other companies I drove for yes they pissed me off but I got over it. I didn't leave from them pissing me off I left to go back to being a Airline pilot. So I am waiting for the 6 months to get here so I can be pissed and to see how I am going to respond to the issues that are coming up.

    Actually I let my CDL go when I went back to flying. The school here is absolutely awesome. They weed out the people that can't back or shift or pass their road eval. Very professional. The instructors are great, they put you up in dorm next to the school. My mistake was letting my CDL go. The Wal mart is about 5 miles away but I have my car here and I am everyones best friend. If you don't have a car they make a Wal Mart run every Thursday. There is a couple of places to eat around but the roach coach comes every AM and PM. How was your time off did you drink one for me ? I'll be in orientation Wednesday then they told me out with trainer for 2 weeks. Then I'll be out with you chasing the white line.
