    Being JB hunt he could of meant driving a semi locally or it means you drive local with an occasional trip outside the 100 mile circle.

    Some jb hunt dcs fleets have a semi local component to them. Loosely meaning your out overnight 1 or 2 times a week but dedicated to whatever account your assigned to.

    If you are interested in having JB Hunt run out your 14 in a day cab sitting mostly in traffic getting paid per mile instead of hourly, be my guest! Been there, done that. You'll make more in your "training pay" your first week then you'll ever bring home.

    Ok I get it. You were on that crappy account in flanders and they screwed you around. I too was on a bad account in newburgh going into the same areas as you were only I delivered grocery stores. I could spend days describing the bad but whats the use. Im sitting in Syracuse right now with a truck I picked up in Binghamton Friday and barely made Syracuse Friday night. They didn't hesitate to put me in a hotel room. Am I making money right now no. I may get layover pay and im not upset. Maybe you should just let it go and stop putting jb hunt down.
