Experience with YRC ( includes YRC, New Penn, USF Reddaway and Holland

its brutal. right now im taking two summer classes..i go to work at 7p, get off at around 9..sleep for like 2 hrs, wake up try to do hw, go to class from 1-5..drive home, do homework for an hr then head back to work. It stinks!

Hope I don't get claustrophobic in those little day cabs.

I have know some CWF drivers that have it good too, but they are far and few. Most of them have 20 years with the company too.

 

Nope not looking to do anything different. Don't have enough seniority in Chicago to do much else. I was obligated to do 2 tours so I did. Had a short 350 mile turn the first night and a long 600 mile turn the next night. I gotta say doing those turns was a quick reminder to me of just how much work was involved in running teams. Felt like I was on vacation doin turns. Lol

 

Oooops. Sorry. Just noticed that one
