    Ask and see if they do the interview over the phone.
    Not sure if they will but doesn't hurtr to try. Also they ask a lot of question. They only want to hear about you so
    get your life story ready....lol It realy nothing to worry about. They are just looking to see if your application matches your story.

    Well I have to say sorry for glowing my top on here. I needed to blow some steam and well the other guy wasn't in arm reach. But still the night guy Jonny is worthless and I feel needs to be let go. I was able to get everything worked out with the day shift and have decided to only work with the day shift. I will go back to trying to help others on here as this group is a great set of drivers. FRE has is faults and hopefully we all can get some or most of them corrected. If we want a good company then we need to help each other in getting that company. I feel FRE can be that company but it will take us in getting that. Also thank you platinum and holy cow for talking with me on the phone today. Feel loads better...lol

    LOLz.....
    I like Felix better myself. Only talked to either of them a couple times though.
    One of the guys I swapped with once, had some real 'nice things' to say about Johnny.

    felix is pretty cool , I enjoyed talking to him myself. if you guys have such a problem Johnny you guys need to start send something into don. it's up to us to fix our problems. we are the backbone that drives the company. I personally did not have a bad experience with Johnny my interpretation is he doesn't have any power to do anything. I wonder what it would take to get Vicki to work night dispatch from home. Hint hint Efon.

    I have to say I'm Not impressed with "Johnny" at all, He tries to be push you and is always sending msg about time. I drove straight for 10 hours and he jumped me for stopping for seven minutes to pee! so I personaly could care less if he stays. But I may not be here long if they keep up what they are doing . I have good trips but by the time I get the equipment to go or switched out because someone forgot to write it up. I am put under the 8 ball and then get one trip a week. This isnt good mile at all and you cannot make a house payment with what they have done. I have made my stops on time and they were in such a hurry to get the load of ____ ( none ref) to where I am to only sit for the last 24 hours and then I get told that they wont pay lay over .. ummm not my fault they need to pay. I was ready to take a load.

    As Far as the bad dispatcher is concerned you need to call Mark and leave a msg. If he gets enough calls maybe he will finaly do something about it. Trust me the only reason Mark knows my name is because I called him on the msg's that were sent to me ( got to love qual com for something and it is nice when you can prove your point 1. with the msg 2. with elc logs)

    mark had a stroke of genius when he set us up with the T.A. if it wasnt for that we would never get anything done.no breakdown to worry about just get to a T.A what a blessing and time saver.T.A. loves it also

    Some of them are pretty busy I have started calling before I get there, then decide on severity of the problem and get it fixed at a different TA or Petro.
