I'm linehaul. I'm looking into that and the Wal Mart account after the first six months or so. I figure it's good experience to go OTR a while then figure out what else might be good.
Thanks guys
Hmmm... I'm going to have to keep this post handy. I see a lot of drivers out with those bluetooth headsets at truckstops. I used to dabble with them when I was a teenager but that was a long while ago...
I think the friendly and straightforward posters here definitely outweigh the sort of normal allotment or disgruntled / ax-grinding posters found in webside forums. I'm really glad I found this place in my research into trucking as a new career.

I have my truck # but do not know what it is. It has the new QC unit in it and they have it for me at Edwardsville. It's a 3-series # (i.e., 3xxxxx) and odds are it's an '04 Century. I hope it has the Wabasto and that the truck will be clean and reliable for me.

I hope it is, too.
Hey Jason, do you remember when you got your welcome packet before you went to Orientation? It is one week before I am to check into my hotel and they told me it should be in anytime. I did call the recruiter today and left a message on voice mail, but was not called back. I will try them again Monday, but if you could give me an idea of when you received yours, and if it was email or snail mail, I would really appreciate it.
Take care. -
Are you expecting a package in the mail? Reason why I'm asking is I got everything emailed to me.
-
I'll bet there isn't a Webasto in that one. But one nice thing about it, being an older truck, you may get a brandy new, shiny, never touched by human hands one soon.

But keep your mitts off my Volvo!!
bigcove Thanks this. -
i love that company good miles good pay theres a 50/50 chance i might go back
bigcove Thanks this. -
I've only been there a year and a half, but have no immediate plans of leaving.
What made ya leave, if I may ask?
-
I thought it would probably come email, but I wasn't for sure. They have my address because I have had email correspondence with the recruiter already, just not on the final package. -
Thanks for your assurance. I feel like I chose a good first company. It was hard for me to turn down their Regional offer compared to what Roehl offered me. I was supposed to start orientation with Roehl on Monday. When I called them and turned down the offer, I only got voicemail. I offered for the recruiter to call me back if she had any questions. I was surprised that she never called to ask me anything after what I heard about recruiters getting paid for all new folks they bring in. -
Very true! My TE's truck was an '02 FL and it didn't have one... he was looking forward to a new truck, too. I will take it and be good to it. It needs an alignment, though. I satisfied my curiosity and checked it out last night.
