off to keim ts

pegy came down to white line today and talked with us, been waiting to hear what keim had to offer, needless to say i put a app in with them, hoping i get a call back for a interview. i really like the family owned and operated small outfit part of them. working for a company like swift, werner or transam is a turn off for me, size wise as your a number, but in some cases you can make money.....

 

Keim really ain't all that small anymore if you look down the road a few miles there is a small company who is hiring I think they do a lil more variety of freight no orientation just a interview and mariner a week out two with trainer depending on experience the company is irish express

 

Yea, we ain't small by any means! beings that the last stat I seen on trucking companies was somewhere in the area of 85% are "one dog shows". Irish Express does look like a decent outfit, mostly KW with flats and steps. Seen them with some OD loads too. It appears to be a more regional company, which may work better for home time. but having loads come thru your hometown is a big key in that equation also.

Good Luck where ever you land Blade! And Camel

 

Ended with a company out of valley falls, hauling fly ash all over hell and back!!! 3 and a 1/2 rigs, pretty small fleet....

 

does anyone know if keim would hire someone from Louisiana with 20 yrs otr but no flatbed experience?

 

Yea so going thru the steps to get on with keim now, the company i work for runs hard, too hard. Called peggy and fillled out another app, hopefuly get on by next week.

 

i got hired on, sweet!!!!

 

Ha this is awesome! Love to hear that Peggy is doing good! She tought me at school as well as Don from White Line CDL training. I worked for Keim TS for about 8 months as my first job. It just didnt work out very well for me but I am still driving! Good luck to yall and keep it shiney side up!

 

I leave with my trainer today. I'm pretty excited. I will let you know how it goes. Yeah peggy is really nice, and their orientation is freakin great. its like 6 hours.

 

if any one is still on this thread and drive for keim could you please tell me a few things bout them like how fast the trucks run ? hometime? lanes? Pay? thank you
