    So would the location I’d be working at be union? Since it’s remote or satellite, whichever they call it. Is it all under one umbrella?

    That’s sounds like a pretty good arrangement. Work one day, and then drive the next.
     
    Radman Thanks this.

    That's a good question to ask when you call. I don't know.
    If not, then keep applying to the LTL companies we posted to you.

    Wasn’t too bad. The layover routes weren’t too bad cause it take you a day or two to unload your whole 48”. Instead of working local and having to unload a trailer a day.

    Found a posting with Kohl Wholesale last night, they’re out of Quincy IL but shuttle trailers to Jeff city. Applied for that too. More money than Sysco and the benefits seem pretty good too.
     
    Radman, hotrod1653 and jmz Thank this.

    Got my background check done today, waiting on results. Went ahead and took my written test for hazmat and DMV and passed on first attempt. Waiting on background check to come back to get a new license with it. Now I’m going to study doubles and triples and go ahead and get that done too!
