I pass a B&B truck almost every day on I-94 in Indiana headed toward Chicago and he is always driving 60mph or less in a 65 zone.He is an older gentleman so maybe that's the reason,or maybe he's governed that slow,but it doesn't matter anyway because I've heard all mail carriers have to pay by the hour.
My brother has worked at the post office for 20 years and he said things are getting slower because of technolgy(internet ads,e-mail,and the slow economy),but that truck still has to go wheather it's full or half-full.
That's about all I know,good luck. -
They all go slow so if you cant take a slow truck dont go there. -
anyone else??
-
There is some discussion about them in the thread

I have an interview on monday....anyone else?
-
Well how did the interview go? Do they have some offices down in your area, or did you come up to the Kalamazoo area?
outkast_ Thanks this. -
thanks for asking...the interview went well, they came down here to St. Louis for the interviews and to bring trucks down. There were 15 people interviewed, only 5 will get hired. 3 full time and 2 part time. They do not have an office down here, so everything took place in a motel banquet room.
I scored very well on my driving test (thats what he said...I never actually saw a score), only missed 1 question out of 25 on my written, and passed the formal interview as well. This was by far the hardest interview I've ever had in my life, they asked some very complicated, almost tricky questions, and wrote down exactly how you answered.
They had 5-6 more interviews to do yesterday, then they said they would make a decision. I am hoping for a call today.
I also must add, the truck I drove was a 909xxx miled 99 volvo....at my current company, we have 07 petes....that old ##### volvo was as nice, if not nicer (is that a word?) than 98% of our petes...they have a great maintenance program, and seem to have a great saftey record also. -
Good luck to you...keep us updated. Their home office is about 2 miles from where I live and have looked at applying with them. Did they give any ideas of what the hours would be?
-
43-50 hrs per week, home every night, but they do have some sleeper trucks that stay out one night and then come back. pay is per contract.
still no call though
