Averitt my new Adventure

Well, this past week I left on Monday, had a pretty decent miles around 2500, but then on Friday my truck broke down, in Chicago I was towed ounce back to shop, the shop "fixed my truck" told me it good to go next day, I try to drive it then I get 30 miles down road, an I have to get towed back to shop again, then as we arrive back the mechanics, have to leave an miraculously have to go home all 3 of them, the head mechanic was never there never showed up never did anything to help me, my truck took 5 days for them to fix,, Averitt put me in an extended stay for 2 nights, then got me a ride home, I will receive 4 days break down pay.
My only complaint is I told the mechanics what is wrong an they are unwilling to seek outside help, such as Volvo dealership but it would of been cheaper first time, I was towed to take it to a Volvo shop, rather than tow me twice at 500$ a pop, an pay me break down for 4 days another 560$, an pay 3 mechanics I would say 2000$ for just labor, an not have a clue at all what they were doing, overall this week has shaken my relationship with Averitt they are still treating me good an I head back out Friday, we will see if they get me better miles.

Breakdowns happen gotta get use to that

 

"breakdowns do happen" but the mechanics not knowing what they are doing is absurd.

 

Yea there are too many dummies out there posing as mechanics. Are you regional or national?

 

we only drive regional, in Averitt.

 

How often do you get home?

 

depends, leave Monday home Friday night/ Saturday morning, leave Monday morning.

 

I want to drive for them but I don't want to pay out of my pocket for CDL school. So I'm doing Earl or Prime do my year with them and come to Averiit

 

don't do Prime, Averitt doesn't pay for your school they reimburse 1,500$, but they pay higher than anyone they pay .37 cents per mile, an after year .41 cents per mile, also pay best break down, best lay over pay, best detention pay.

 

I'm 90% sure I'm doing Earl but I'm sure I really want to drive for Averritt everybody says good things about them
