Furniture Row Express

LOL's... I hear ya... I did a switch to, I switched at Oak Grove, MO with another driver and I'm taking his load down to Waelder, TX... I'll be there in the morning at 0700...

 

I'm looking into joining the FRE family. Ever since my old DM at May moved over to Furniture Row, I have been tempted to come on board. After talking with a previous student of mine, getting a phone call from Don and reading the posts here, I am going to make the switch. Hopefully I can be a part of the team soon.

 

Good luck 2 you! let us know how it goes..

 

As long as Vicki is there I know I will be there. I hope to hear from Don as soon as he gets back in the office this week.

 

I also taked to Don this week and he told me that they only had a few trucks open. he said that the petes are the only trucks that can go to california,I said no problem, i like to go there. Anyone know how fast the petes run?Do the pay for layover or detention?..

 

If you live in Dallas you will be through there a lot, One of our main running lanes is KS & Co to Houston and back to CO. They pay layover on a case by case basis, Detention is paid after 2 hours, but you got to keep on them to get it. If you have worked for a alrge company, this is going to be a lot different, they do not constantly micromanage you,And expect you to think for yourself. If you have maintainance issues you call T/A, Bridgestone and ThermoKing Direct, don't even have to call in for approvla usually, sometimes you do. They are real hardarses about you not being late.If you don't have the hours communication is the key. The trucks run 65-68 depending on the fuel mileage the previous driver had, they re-evaluate that everytime you are in MS. shop.
