Staley local LTL

Anyone on here ever worked for Staley General in Munster Indiana or one of their other affliated companies?

 

I worked for Staley for awhile and left to go back local. I am getting laid off and would like to come back to Staley. How is the new contract? To me the hours were crazy but I guess coming back I would be in a sleeper cab instead of the hotels being paid for like before. I am just looking for your overall view and how long you have been with them. I need to make a decision soon. I know all the guys with the company were great and treated me well.

 

Thanks. Yes, when I ran out of Munster I would be put up in a hotel if necessary for a layover. Dave H. tells me that now all new hires for the regional positions start out in a sleeper cab and the move to a day cab as seniority progresses. After awhile of course you move up to a day cab local position. I am not sure what Phil has available. Did first road test in day cab, this second one will be in a sleeper. I was going to go today but took my yellow lab to the vet because she hadn't been feeling well. We found out she had cancer and we had to put her down. Really bummed out today. Plan on rescheduling for next week.
Thanks

 

Thanks. I start back at Staley on Monday. Run sleepers until I gain seniority back. New guys on the board doing all of the layovers and it saves them on hotel rooms.
