Inverters, APUs, Fridges in May Trucks

mays a good operation but like anywhere if things slow down and u ##### or refuse loads ,which makes u a cherry picker well, than yeah your gonna turn into a complaining little girl i guess

 

now theres a real man living in a real world, no room for whinners in my world

 

some people are happy with more or less but me im not happy unless i have a least 3200 miles a week but will settle for 2900 but luckily i got a preplan during my service so im rolling again

 

and DMs get paid pretty crappy we make more than them

 

Your out of brooks, big difference. West coast is where all the freight is

 

No doubt. When they were searching for a new dm in Denver this summer I inquired about it. Asked the starting pay and was told the base salary. I then said "I will stay OTR."

 

That might be a pay raise for me.

 

Funny, I think you might be getting a new truck. Who cares. I want miles, not a new truck or faster. You brag you know 8 others getting same miles, when the terminal manager says to yesterday calls me via phone call says its not true. I know a few others like me struggling including my trainer. May is not a bad company, there are a few entities that can be enhanced or overhauled. Breakdown and planning.
I appreciate my terminal, I understand they don't do manage appointments or dispatches. I do think the Dms should make calls for us to get appointments earlier if we can be there early.

 

unfortunately, DMs get far too much credit/blame. They are merely liasions between drivers and Logistics.

Not 'bragging' about how many I know, simply stating the fact that, contrary to what is posted on here, not everyone is getting terrible miles.
I truly feel for you and your situation, as well as others like you...Fortunately for me though, I am not in that situation. My wife, and our fours kids are also grateful for that, since I am the sole wage earner in the house. I can say though, that if I were in aless fortunate situation, I would not just come online and talk about it, I would do something about it. May is not the only company out there...
