Team starting out with US Xpress

i'm a o/o running on the same group that craig will be.....
our group doesn't take lease trucks. only their own company drivers and o/o........craig will be driving for a o/o
nothing about our group is the same as usx even though the truck has usx on the door

 

Thanks Flood.
What kind of pay does a driver get for driving for a O/O .... Have you ever heard of someone driving for a O/O and keeping the pay in the O/O name, because of taxes or already being retired and not wanting to mess that up ? ..Did you guys get a loan from a bank ? Thanks for coming back to this . Be safe....

 

pay can be mileage or percentage it's up to the o/o and the driver.....

realy a bad plan IRS realy doesn't like it

no we went to lone mountain with a good down payment and got our truck

 

What is a repower ? And when you get to TX, if my son is still home give us a call and maybe we can do lunch and talk about what not to do as a trucker - lol. He came home after orientation and is waiting on the drug test to come back,-- He asked to go to flatbed

 

Repower is when say a driver or Team run out of hours, and you have plenty.. Their load is about to run out of time and become late, so they (USX) look for someone closer to switch or take over someone elses load so that it can be delivered on time.

Why is he waiting the results of the Drug Test?? Normally they have those results very quickly???

 

Thanks HD.
He has had a problem with a nerve that is somehow inline with his bladder/urine track. since he was a kid, Called --lower flank pain syndrome, most children under the age of teenager die from it. its rare and seldom known, so before he went to orientation ,he told swift and had to get extra paper work signed from his doctor. That is why were thinking of the hold up .

 

WOW, I am sorry to hear that. I hope that he gets things cleared up so he can move forward.
