Newest USX Driver

try not getting paid for tarp after tarp after tarp.

tolls

tools and such

and whatever comes along. just like you.

broke down equipment with junk yard parts. detention.

i feel your prain brutha. and doing the same thing. but not with usx.

 

And tolls are being added to more and more roads to keep the upkeep on them now. It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't so much.

 

Welcome aboard!! With all the ups and downs it's still a great company to work for

 

Hope you enjoy, I think it is a company which tries at least. Most of their terminals were pretty good, free washer and dryers, showers, etc. My husband worked for USX in 2008 when the freight really fell. He had some good DM's, and of course the ones with no clue. He was company and drove a Volvo automatic; I went with him for a year and it was great because of the room in it. We'd stay out about 3 mo at a time before going home which is not a good idea if you have any kids. He was paper log then, don't know if they still use them or not now.

ONe thing, I don't remember who it was on TTR, but they ended up with an overweight scale ticket. USX says it doesn't have to be weighed if under 38,000. If in doubt, scale it, better to waste $10.00 then getting a $200.00 plus ticket that you may have to pay.

 

orientation in Colton CA? Really? they told me I might have to go to dallas or it was some place in Texas. Thats crazy cause Colton would be closer then going to Texas.

 

Let us know how orientation goes for you. Good luck

 

I posted a welcome but it didn't show up. Looking forward to reading of your adventures.
