well the one thang i did do was comunicate good with the dispatcher about my intentions and took the truck and trlr where i was told to.....i also took pics of the qc messages with a good digital camera so i have proff of that the only thang that worries me is i will be classified as a job hopper
Tnspeedy I pretty much warned you they weren't all that great a few weeks ago. I will be leaving in a few weeks once my 6 month sentence is over. Just not enough miles. Delivered in Mississauga,On today and not picking up next one til Monday which will give me only1800 for 7 days when I deliver it Tuesday in Cincinnati.
yea they left me sittin untill friday after orentation then loaded me to cincinnati for monday.....goin right through where i live....it only takes me about 5 hors to get to cincinnati form my house and they threw a major hissy tellin me i couldnt stay the weekend at my house i told them i was goin to anyways....i just dont like a company that makes ya walk around on eggshells.....bad enough that DOT does it......and i like my flats also....but hopefully it will all come out in the wash
big kid i c you live in indiana things are slow this month at the co i drive for here in indiana but should pick back up in feb if your looking let me know. i left marten last yr due to all there crap. im now home anywhere from every other day and always hm on weekends unless i want more miles we pretty much stay around the states that border in and over to tx and back.
Where at in Indiana are they out of and who are they? I live in southern Indiana and am probably going to buy a truck through Schneider but nothing is a definate.
It tends to take hauling more than 2 loads to get used to the reefer. Some people never get used to it. Then there are others such as myself that sleep better with the reefer on than shut off.
lol....i have heard of many people like that....i guess if you start out on a reefer it would be different....maybe i don know i just didnt like the feelin i had from the start....i like bein able to check my load ever once and a while to make sure it is still secure while movein down the road i found that hard once that seal is put on at a shipper i don know it might just have been me......
big kid the co is carter express out of anderson in you can pull them up on the net and if i can answer any q let me know
I may drive for Martin out of wilsonville OR regional i-5 could you please explain "walking on eggshells"??? also the seem to have good pay / bennies. BUT only w/o "Per- Diem" what is per deim and why would or wouldn't you want it? Thanks!!! do you have an average of hrs you worked per week vs. weekly pay? inquiring minds want to know! hehe
they way overboard on security they threw a fit when i was comein home and told me i said somethin when i didnt.....in regaurds to safety of the truck while at home....they want you to spend as much time sendin messages on the qc as you do drivein.....they watch your logs closer than dot. but its beacuse back a couple of years ago there safestat score was a 99. i am from the southeast and me and another guy in my orrentation come to the conclusion that everbody we were havein to deal with besides in ga was extremly rude and hateful. there is alot of people say on here that they are miro managed but i dont know......all i knew was i could tell that they werent goin to work out for me
