Team Player

You really sure you want to team drive? You don't even know what its like trying to sleep while someone else is driving. I sure as hell wouldn't hop in a truck with someone I didn't know and try to sleep while there driving. I saw on craiglist yesterday for vancouver there was a posting on there for someone willing to train though for flatbed if you wanted to team drive with them. Also look at can-am west. They have a training program but its all flatdeck too.

 

You would be surprised.... All the companys I've worked for have turned me out loose without them doing any driver training except for my new one where I spent a week with another driver learning where my drop sites were. I've just learnt as I've gone along wworking with my class 1 for the past year and I've done a lot of stuff which most newbies never would have considered doing. Like I said, check out can-am west. They have a program where you go with someone local for a couple weeks, then they team you up with a driver on the highway for a couple months. They seemed to have made it better than wat they were offering to me when they wanted me to come there.

Also something you might want to consider.... Being out for weeks n the road sucks.you eat like garbage pretty much and you have to consider where to shower all the time lol I couldn't imagine doing a reset in my truck on weekends. I'm in my truck for 10 hours a night 3 nights a week and that's plenty lol.

 

Yankee after a successful achievement in Ukraine where they brought to Canada about 100 super cyber-drivers. Now they are still looking for them in Rep of Ireland. They pay 33cents per mile for team, 10 days of work 4 days off, expecting truck running for 22-23hrs.
Are you still interested ?? Think twice before you sign anything.

 

If you are willing to relocate.........head over to Ontario.

As long as your abstract is clean,someone will hire you.

I would think you could apply for jobs from where you live right now and still get hired in Ontario........try a driver service......wouldn't be my first choice,but for a guy that is new they can get you a job(generally,no "test drive") and you can start work when you get there.

Here's one that has been around for a long time and generally service decent carriers:

I think Winnipeg motor express has a training program too.

 

I've known a couple of guys who drove for Winnipeg Motor Express. Expect to have problems being paid from time to time, if you go there, is the info I got from them.
