Sorry Guys its been a while since I have been on but man they are running me hard and I like it so far since weds night when I recieved my truck at 1800hrs i have racked up 2450 miles and am under another load right now. So far only had 1 live unload all the rest are drop and hooks which I love Werner and WSE both had 90% live loads and unloads. as of right now my only complaint is running both the Elogs and Paper logs for the months has been tricky i am allways leaving one or the other out. As for the reason most people went home after the Physical was the Duck walk and blood preasure pr being on some medications that needed doctors consent. as for the duck walk I thought of it to be unfare to some drivers, I am a well Fit guy average hight of 6'1" and I even struggled with it , now there were some guys like this one driver was about 6'6" at least and about 325 he was a big guy but seen lot bigger people in trucking now he was in ok Shape but he had no chance of walking under the line while doing the duck walk he tried but failed along with a lot of other drivers. although they are weening out the drivers who are health wise unfit they sort of are in a way discriminating against others. Besides that i have no complaints. I get a pre plan sent usually with in a hour of getting my new load info and they are constantly trying to get me to do other loads as well but I cant just dont have the hrs for it.
thinking about jumping ship

well good luck with keepinmg that kind of mileage, you are new so they are gonna run you for awhile hard just to make you believe they want you to succeed, BUT THEY DONT... right now is christmas time and they have a lot of runs during this time frame, after new years you will get dropped to about 2000 miles per week... USX is the worst company i ever worked for..

well 2k miles is still more then I was making with WSE and get paid more here to.
