Driving for a Mercer Contractor

This thread was very helpful/informative.. Any updates? Finishing up my paperwork also to be heading to Mercer soon. Also will be driving for a contractor. Waiting on Ranger to get back with me.. Thanks!

 

Blind Driver. Are you no longer at Mercer or did you buy your own?

 

Well hopefully I can make it with this guy I've talked to.. Just trying to stay positive about it all.. Just not in the position to out right buy a truck an lease it on @ the moment. Which I know is the best way to go of course. Maybe this time next yr I can.. Well that's the plan but hey stuff happens and plans can change anytime..

 

Drivers looking to run for a contractor would be wise to consider the financial viability of the operation. More precisely, is the equipment paid for or is everything bank owned? The answer to this question will provide insight into the mind of the owner and help to determine if the operation has the endurance to grow and become prosperous!

Another equally important consideration for a driver starting with a young company might be: Are there added benefits for drivers who signs on early in the growth process? If you think about it, the company can't successfully grow without good drivers and it's reasonable to expect an added bonus for those who help grow the biz!
