Life at American Central Transport (ACT)

if you will take the time to actually read the posts,,i never said jct was perfect,,i made good money there,,,only reason i left was that my mileage dissapeared,,i hold no ill will twrds jct,,sometimes it happens,,,,,however,,glad to see that you have such a great attitude towards people that print the bare truth,,have a nice day

 

That was uncalled for. Just because he is'nt there anymore does'nt mean he was was'nt telling the truth in his posts at the time. As we all know things change.

 

Alright BigKid2 I go for orientation on the 19th and decided on ACT based on your post and research I have done on them. I hope this works for me as well as it has for you. I live in Dexter MO so home time shouldn't be a problem. Just so the miles and pay are there.

 

ACT sounds great, but they won't hire new drivers.

I have an approval for hire from

JBS
Roehl

and am interested in

Keller
Schneider
Central Refrigerated

Any thoughts on those companies?

My situation is that I'm single, no family. I don't ever need to go home, I just want miles, and am willing to reset on the road. I just want good equipment, and a good trainer. Am I asking for too much?

 

Never called him a liar, a while back I asked a simple question to him and him an all the jct guys ganged up on me. Just saying the welcome mat wore out at jct and in a few months it willl wear out at act then grannylane can tell us about his new adventures.

 

Can't we all just get along? PLZ, this thread has actually been a VERY good informative one for ppl, lets keep it that way! Or am I going to have to go around and hug everyone???

 

Fair enough man, i did'nt know yall had a beef with each other. None of my business then, sorry.

 

Im just curious.How much money you gotta pony up to unlce sam at end of the year.Is the 1362.90 take home after payroll taxes . i talked to 1 driver he said he paid 5000.00 in taxes for his income. that .05 mile based on 100,000 a year. reason i asked i got a family to take care of if i could take home after everything 1000.00 1300.00 a week . i be on the bus tomorrow . thanks

 

well going off his numbers from post #390 looks like bring home would be average of $1090. i always just times .20 by my check and that is real close to what the taxes would be. but thats "just me when i was O/O"

 

do they allow riders in the truck?
are they dead set on the 10 to 14 days?
