    Who is your dispatcher? Talk to Jason or John but you gotta bring in something solid for them to be able to help. As far as the camera its not monitored by the company itself its a third party, I've been to their center it dumps footage constantly and only saves when there's an event that it needs to send to the company

    10-4, Her daughter and I are getting together today and going to talk to a nursing home or two and see if we can get her in one of them. In the meantime I will also ask her doctor if he can give me some type of medical document that I can bring to them. Thanks

    Wow. Sounds like a typical OTR mill. Do some research people, sounds like this company sucks.

    I worked here , and yes they hold orientations every week.
    Wednesdays. Mine was 3 days , then they gave me a truck n said talk to the load planner , but I told them I didn't bring enough clothes and was told I could go home B4 I had to actually start .

    Now maybe I was lucky , cause he said ok , bobtail home do your thing and call us when ready .
    So I did that. I stayed home for 3 days with the tractor parked in my driveway.
    I thought the city was gonna ticket me so I had it pushed all the way up hidden between the bushes .

    Anyways I wound up doing a lot of drop n hooks at Wal art , I would pick one , deliver 3 or 4 hundred miles away and have enough time to hook another and head out on that one , sleep and continue.
    Those were nice , then sometimes I would be able to get 4 hooks a day cause they would send me to wal art close to each other, or I'd pick tires at one place drop another place then head to a wal art hook one there and get half way down then sleep n so on .

    When you first start here they will give you all you want and work with you like your best friends.

    Until............

    they start their Thing ........

    Then you start hanging around truck stops where you begin to know the workers names and schedules and even their kids names and how many they have and what the kids grades are , and how many pets they have and the pets names and the color of their house.
    When they take out the garbage and what their spouses names are .what they do for a living and your sitting at their table for dinners and hanging out with them, being named as their newborns Godparent , watching the kids so they can have alone time protecting the daughter on first dates .
    Teaching the kids how to drive their first time , watching them grow up.
    Becoming 'ye-ole-confident ' to the kiddos , and being invited to their kids wedding.
    AND THEM BAMMMMMM..........

    the phone rings and they say they have a load for you to go get it .

    Ok I might have exaggerated a little bit here , but All in all I had a lot of Fun at this company, I live in Miami , so I would drive here park my car in the big parking lot they have and go out for 2 - 4 weeks .
    It was whatever I wanted on the length of time out just so you know it's hard on otr companies to only have you out 2 weeks, but this one it works as a lot of their biz is close enough to do this .

    They do charge you for load bars , 75 when I was there , and they charged me a deposit, but I did get that back .
    On the load bars thing I forgot the first set inside the trailer and I panicked and bought new ones , and I found out that I didn't have to because at a lot of places they are being thrown out and I picked them up all the time afterwards, so don't buy them if you forget em inside a trailer.
    I'm actually thinking about going back here and yeah I'm gonna fill application as soon as I end this post , bye
    I really did have a lot of fun here ,

    If your thinking about this one , one thing to think about is getting yourself a battery operated blower for the inside of trailers as Wal art checks to see a clean inside so park somewhere and blow it out before you enter wal arts property.
    I made a bad choice and used gas powered and I smelled that all the time.
    Mostly days but lots of nights when they are ' good ' to you and that's when you make money here .nights .
    Nights are the premium at this job .

    Oh yeah , I left just when they were upgrading the speed to 70 mph .
