Need help, opinion, and advice!

I say find your self another job. There are a lot more companies out there

 

not sure if its legal...seems as if it should not be. they told you and advertise one thing, and give you something else entirely. sounds like a bait and switch to me. but heres your problem...legal or not, you agreed to work for them, and the alternative now is quit and look for a different job. slipseat AND team? worst of both worlds if you ask me. two things that wouldve sent me running fast. if they are willing to lie to you so dam blatantly in your first week, about something so HUGE, how can you trust anything they say later? my advice would be look for a better deal elsewhere. if you need to, keep your crappy current gig while looking, but look in earnest. thats trucking? no, its not. the trucking world is not THAT full of liars, im curious, what are they saying you will make once youve done your 4 trips? because a new grad can expect low pay, but ive never heard of lower pay than the pay youve been promised for training.

 

Find another job. How long are you supposed to be on this 400.00 a week gig?

you are better than me, i would have come back to the terminal, and once that chick said that foolishness, i would have been on my way home

its one thing for folks to stretch the truth, its another to lie and smirk about it as if its all a joke, this is your livelihood, and NO ONE should screw with that

as much as i hate companies, i would go to usxpress before setting foot back into that place again

 

You're in the hiring area for Maverick & they have a good reputation for weekends home.
Your only other option may be food service or grocery companies.
Leave your present company on good terms or they can ruin your DAC report.

 

Run dont look back

 

About the legal part, if the contract you signed with them states you work 4 - 5 days then get 2 days off, then you have legal grounds, if the contract does not state this, then they can do what they want when they want. I went through C.R. England school and its the same thing very little pay to start and if you want to be a company driver rather than take the " flease " ( lease ) then you could stay out up to 6 months before going home. I would recommend staying with the company until you get at least 3 months experience then switch to a better company.
