When did this thread become a pissing contest? People come on here and ask questions. Central drivers give their openion, and if it's not anti central they get blasted by ex-central drivers. Badz I did not say you were a criminal. What I said was that Central would look at tampering with the qualcomm so it did not look like you were ideling as if you were stealing. I did not say I thought that way, I understand the need/desire to be comfitorable. What I do believe is that anyone wanting to drive for central or any other company has plenty of opprotunity to find out about how much they pay, their policies, and any fees associated with breaking those policies. Then it is there decision to decide if they can live with those rules. If not they would be better off working for another company. I have been a manager in a past life and there have always been stupid stuff that corporate wanted to do and our job as employees was to do it or find another job.
Jj I stand corrected, I was assuming that a single person had little chance against a big companies law team. You have proved me wrong you did it so that means anyone can right?
Badz that is awsome that you got a great job! I hope to have one like it someday. But I'm happy where I am now, and as jj stated this is a great place to get started then move on and that is my plan. Maybe I'll be here 3 years, how long were you here?
Maybe bigrigg and I are just a couple kool aid drinkers, but thats ok with me for now. I try to look at the positives, while planning for my future, and to me central is a good fit.
That is all

Your original post just gets my blood boiling because somebody wants to know if they can life with Central's policy or not. You're response is to show them how to break the rules. Rules and regs are a part of trucking now and will not be going away and that sucks. The more drivers out there that have your mind set the more regs that come down on us drivers that try to play by the rules. That is what makes me mad. Either find a way to make it work for you (which you did with containers) or get the hell out trucking.
One last thing, Central has done nothing but bend over backwards to help me so yeah I drink there KOOL AIDE. Are there other companies out there where I can make more money sure but not at this time for me. Will I be with Central for the rest of my life, probably not. However, for the position that I'm in right now Central is a good company for me and works to help me get farther on in my career. So if anybody ask I will tell them yes Central works for me, but it may not work for you. Here is there policy and here is how you make it work for you. If that dosen't suit you then go somewhere else and work. Do some of the policies suck yes but they are there and you just have to learn how to deal with them. -
What make and model trucks does central run?

Hello CHOMPI, CELtic, LADYK and 1BADZ28...if I forgot someone, sorry! lol...
Ill being reading many of the posts on to this blog and I can recognize CHOMPI from other thread guess is related to JTC and found it very usefull. I am new on the truck industry but guess with a good bite of common sense to save me of some issues on the road.
I drove a 05 10speed craplighner with a refer hanging on the back but hoping to find a better place to stay.
It got my attention the central refrigerated thread because it happens that a neighbor started to work for the company and now trying to get in to the lease business with them.
I am also looking for a good company to work with (here is where the naive guys start his wish list...)....with....good time at home....good paying....good relationship owner employee do not to be just a number....good trucks...good lease to own program......something else? nope I guess some of you guys reading so far are already laughing.
Any ways I am waiting delighted on to the possible answers.
Wish you the best to all. -
Central is a big company so in some ways you are just a number. That's how they keep track of all their drivers by number. However, Central will not treat you like just a number if you don't want to be treated like one. There will be other drivers and ex-drivers that will disagree with me and that's fine. That maybe was their experience. But I can tell you from my experience that if you are doing your job well and withing company policy then they will bend over backwards to help you out. I made a mistake that with any other company I would have been fired and should have been. Central called me in talked to me about looked at my record before that and how I was running my business and decided to give me second chance. My miles haven't been cut because of it nor have I had any other problems from the company or management. Central knows that if there drivers aren't making money then neither are they.
