    So you guys getting miles or ?? I'm thinking of joining JBS for the miles (not the lower pay) but what's the average you guys run? Winter I know is slower everywhere but what about march - October ?

    I ran otr for several months and in the last month or so I switched to the Western Region. They do get me home but so far I am home on my requested day only 50% of the time. Sometimes 2-3 days late or 2-3 days early. I have picked up in Chico at Smuckers and go to Puyallup,Wa when I come out of the house. PU in Sacramento sometimes also. Have only been through Redding not on my first day out only once. My last home time was a deadhead from Portland (400 mi). That sucks because you drive most of the day and don't get paid.
     
    DocRox Thanks this.

    You get paid to deadhead to go pick up a load, but not to drive home empty............

    Hey there CMack,
    Yes JBS does have 2 women trainers right now. I just finished my orientation yesterday and I am waiting here in Greeley this week and then I fly out next Friday to Florida to meet up with my trainer who will be coming off home time.
