I may be working for a bad carrier?

You need to wait 6 months before leaving that company to make sure the drugs you were on when you accepted the job are out of your system.

 

I don’t think you may be working for a bad carrier, you are working for a bad one

 

Why take a bus? Flights can be bought for as little as $50.

 

Can't fit?

 

Not from what I’ve seen. Last plane tickets I had set me back approximately $1200. And that was just for me and the wife to attend a family reunion in St. Louis.

 

Here’s a comparison for you to think about if you’re really wondering.

I too work for a small 25 truck fleet.

- I’m home every day unless *I* choose to do an overnight run.
- I work Monday thru Friday
- Non forced dispatch, although it’s EXTREMELY rare anyone here requests not to do something.
- Average about 8.5-9 hours a day
- Off all major holidays WITH pay
- Need off for whatever? No problem
- I get paid for EVERYTHING I do.
- Affordable, decent insurance
- if I’m not loaded immediately, I go on the hourly clock.
- Truck getting serviced? I go on the hourly clock (unless I’m off that day)
- Breakdown? I go on the hourly clock, not some dumb $100 daily rate.
- Owner supplies everything we need to include: shirts, gloves, hard hat, reflective vest, waterproof all season jacket, anything at all, he provides.

Heck, he bought an antenna (a whip or whatever they call them for my CB when I told him I had a CB, but not an antenna.

The drivers NEVER leave. I got lucky and was literally at the right place right time when I got hired.

Yeah, I’d say you need to move on.

 

But, did they get you a really small one to wear when you change into a bat? Or, can you not do that?
