Reasons why NOT to work for Carroll Fulmer, Groveland, FL

I know someone works there in the office. Got a problem with that ??? And I've talked to some of their company drivers and a owner op.

 

Np trucking is full of lies and greed pretty much in every trucking company you work for. ILL SAY THAT TILL THE DAY I DIE. MAYBE PUTTING THESE TRUCKS ALL ON ELECTRONIC LOGS WILL CHANGE THAT. TIME WILL TELL. THE RICH GET RICH AND THE POOR GET POORER. ITS THE DRIVER'S THAT SUFFER AND WE DO THE ONLY ACTUAL WORK IN THESE COMPANIES THAT BRINGS IN $$$$ ITS CALLED A SIGNED BILL OF LADING AFTER THE DELIVERY. PEACE OUT.

 

The biggest concern would be how mechanically, electrically, and electronically sound the truck is, not how "new" the truck is.
Also, another big concern would be whether or not the truck can pass a D.O.T. inspection, regardless of how "old " or how "new" the truck is.

God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

OTR & LTL - over the mountains - through the woods - coast to coast - sea to shining sea

The OTR & LTL truck drivers of America are positively the driving force of our economy.

 

But it's too bad most of the owners of these trucking companies don't realize that and just look at us like we're not a valuable commodity and were a dime a dozen.

It's not about what you did for them yesterday it's about what are you doing for me/them today !!!!!!!

 

Hello GreenChili, You still drive for them?? I just wrapped up a 5 mos stint with them and I will tell you, They almost had me pulled in and believing everything they said was true, But the more I listened to their drivers at the yard and then asked my own questions and my own expierences they are BULL!@#$... Yeah they got brand new trucks that run 64mph with a camera looking forward and at the driver.. My dispatcher Jason W. he was a good I feel he treated me right.. And MIKE B. in Safety I believe he cares about the drivers but the rest of them they can give a #### ABOUT YOU.. OH Yeah one more person cares WILL in ROAD Service I believe he is sincere.. But noone else.. when I quit my job they said that my two books the red and green one was not in the tractor of which I got charged 125.00 each for. Plus they even charged me 25.00 for me not turning in my name badge.. lets put it this way out of the 700. they took out for security deposit I am only getting back 145.00.. Who knows what else they charged me for.The people in logs told me they want me to get my bonuses but when I wasnt getting them, they couldnt answer my questions to get them. So I went to mike bates he gave me a quick lesson on the QC and since then i started getting some bonuses but not ALL. So to you where did my first 4mos of bonus money whos pocket did that money go in??? Do you know?? Anyway my expierence with them is S@#$. And I believe that you are not a driver you are someone in the office that scans websites like this for responses like this and if you are PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH THEM.

 

If you was here 5 months you saw me, you probably talked to me a couple times at the smoke table, but your belief is your belief and I don't try to change beliefs over a website, it's pointless to try. Most of what you're saying is actually true, best thing to do is find what works for you here and stick to it, every company is ########, but this ######## at least gives me some leeway and flexibility...

 

what is the two raises a year about?

 

The jack is in the maintenance shop(for a raise).

 

Hey UGA732, I dont know if you read my post to Green Chili, but if you can find it read it. I just left Carroll Fulmer their trucks are governed at 63, 64 mph. They are going to all automatics,Yes they are changing over to all new trucks 2017 but they still have some older trucks. but after my exp with them I wouldnt suggest anyone go to them unless they are just starting driving only to get the exp to move on to better, IF THERE ARE BETTER OUT THERE??? I feel that i was cheated out of 4mos worth of bonuses because no-one in logs would help me figure out how to use the QualCom until i went to Mike Bates in safety then I started getting my bonuses.Even when I told the lady jennifer who does orientation that I wasnt sure on how to do everything on the QC she told me to just play with Ill figure it out. No one on one lesson. All of their new trucks should have APUs in them plus inverters. When I took my road test there were 3 of us in the truck and it was a straight drive but they passed everyone!!!! If I can answer anymore questions about CF let me know I wont lie to you. I have moved on. Dont know if this is better time will tell.
