Indian river transport?

I.R.T. has installed 3 E-logs Testing them now to set them up for the end of this year to install in the rest of the fleet.... Also they have started turning all trucks back to 65 mph.. no exceptions. Trust but verify with safety.

Oakley .43 cpm + 5 cpm (food grade hazmat only) + .03 cpm quarterly safety bonus = .51 cpm.. It's a no-brain-er... Ask an Oakley driver,see them at OJ'S or on the west coast all the time. They give you 90 days to get your hazmat.They pay for pump offs and the only person you have to wait on for pumping is you not some receiver.

 

I went there and tried it......for Two weeks!
When you go pick up that milk, you go out to the farms ....out in the boonies....not even phone service available......
You bring it back into Kroger in Atlanta...takes 1 1/2 hours to unload you...1-2 hours to wash you....oh did I mention the other 6 trucks ahead of you ???......that's 20 hours of "donated time" they don't pay you for it.....BTW, they say they start at 36 cents a mile but.....you start at 32 cents. You "can" work your way up they say but nobody there has ever seen it.....
The people are rude....treat you like you are no even there...noe do they give a ####...all they care about are those loads!!
Hometime....hahahahaha.........be serious! If you are not willing to be gone for 4 to 6 weeks at a time, you are of no use to them
You will get miles and you will get good money BUT......you will definitely earn it!!!!

 

This is where? oakley or IRT?

I sent Amy my application and the release forms today...my dac has one bad mark on it from a company I worked for a little over 2 years ago which should not even be on there but it is anyway. I've had 2 years and 2 months experience with another company since then but they just shut their doors. Hoping they will hire me and put me in a truck. Need a job BAAAAAAD. Don't care if I'm gone 2 months at a time or whatever it is. Don't have much of a home life anyway. I wanted to drive from a very young age and decided not to get tied down. Don't really think I'm missing anything that interests me. Anyway, enough of that soapbox. Wish me luck!!!! I'm gonna need it

 

good luck man, just understand what your getting into..

 

and what would you say i'm getting into? i mean i have seen the other thread and read most of what's there, just want to hear what you think
