oops , I do know how to spell (their) just alittle flustered, sux getting screwed by the last trucking company I'll probably ever work for , I have always loved the job, but cause of medical reasons I will have to find something else to do. Even if I find away to get my carpal tunnel fix it would be silly for me to truck again, I just had to give it one more try ( I'm not the type to say I cant do something without trying) ,good luck and be safe all .

 

Who in the heck gave you flat rate pay for that?? And why did you agree to that? You got a bad Fleet Manager. Or your just a sucker...
When I get home I'll put a couple of mine up.

 

I never agreed to a flat rate pay, I was told that I would b makin .35 a mile

 

Think I would be calling payroll and asking WTF!!!! looks like they made a mistake. Surly they had to, but like you I would be fraking out to. But I would call them and ask what was up with the pay.

 

Hello everyone there is a lot of good info on this forum and was wanting to know what is one of the better companies that offer cdl training? thanks and drive safe!!!

 

Well, that doesn't matter anymore because if you drive for anyone of the three your gonna pull what they give you. Beside's I wouldn't ##### and take what your given because it could be the only thing you can get to get you back into a better freight area. I'm averaging about 2500 miles a week but thing's are a bit screwed up around here right now with all three companies being combined together. I think they finally pulled payroll's head's out of their ###' so we might acutally start getting what we make every week now instead of it being all screwed up over 2-4 week period. If you work here you know what I mean. I've been here about 2 months now and I will say it's a hell of a lot better than what I've had to settle with in the past. Lot's of rules here that you can't get away with unlike a company like Prime so it is however a big change but for the most part I'm happy here as long as I keep seeing pay checks.

 

Oh and a kwik note to all those coming here or thinking about coming here. You had BETTER!!! have enough money to get you through for about 2 weeks because theydo not have paid oreintation or have a sign on bonus. They provide two meals a day while in class pay for the bus and hotel and provide transportation to and from th hotel everything else is on you until you get your first check.

 

They wanted the same from me. I presented the diploma from Primes CDL training and completed in flying colors and they still hired me on with 10 1/2 months. If you didn't have the diploma all you had to do is contact Prime and ask them to send you a copy.

 

Is it weekly pay or bi weekly?

 

IROC I can't send you a pm yet so I will answer your questions on here. Pay is weekly. Pet policy is .01 per mile. I haven't had a problem with idleing. and some have apu's and most don't
