    I commented to the article! I wonder what will happen now!

    oops looks like I have to join a libtard news rag to make a comment to an outrageous story! NOT!
    But the funny thing is I bet prime will get a ton of calls as a picture or the video starts with one of their reefers on the page! Now do I want to watch that video???..... I'll waste some time on it tomorrow maybe! I just had to fall on the floor laughing at that $72,000 a year!

    I think is a "bit" misleading information on this article reality will hit hard soonner or later for this job hunters even they mention that most of the drivers will not qualify for these jobs.

    Good luck to all that people looking for jobs in this critical times that we are living.

    $72,000,,,,, well best case scenario for a experianced driver (and this would be gross pay if its OTR),,,,by the hour I could see ,in the LA area and thats a lot of hours lol

    But one thing i Gleaned form the vid was this,,,last year 25,000 applicants and they only placed 2500 people in jobs??? % is slim it seems

    They got the numbers mixed up on this story. It was suppose to read $27,000 a year, not $72,000 a year. There is a big catch to this somewhere.

    Isn’t the Las Angeles area like Miami in that they pay with Mexican Pesos? That could account for the mix-up!

    The oldest trick in a recruiters bag of lies.

    Exagerate the pay and they will come!

    I used to live in Wilmington Ca. I grew up there and was the 4th generation to live on the same street.I pulled cans out of that Harbor and I can tell you, it aint easy.It can take you most of the day to get anything outta there.Then your fighting for a good chassis etc. Ive seen plenty of companies advertise what they pay in miles etc, but Ive never seen anyone make that. Good luck if you can make a fairy tale work.

    I dont know if anyone else watched the video but they did say these spacific trucking jobs involve pulling military cargo and most will not quilify so if that is true the $72K might be possible I dont know anything about the company they are talking about....

    They haven't checked military rates lately. Tennessee Steel Haulers cut the bottom out of the vehicle transport end.
