Roehl Driver Check In

Certain people depending on BMI. In orientation now and just had to get the machine or go home. It's total BS so I will be getting a second opinion on my own dime now

 

That was my complaint today. If its cause they care so much about my health why not care about everyone equally

 

I hope it works out for you. I really like Roehl and have no serious complaints up until now. If they were requiring everyone to take the sleep study I would absolutely do it. But since Roehl has chosen to discriminate against me for being overweight I can no longer continue working here. And if Roehl actually believed that I have sleep apnea they shouldn't be allowing me to drive until I've taken the sleep study since that would be unsafe. Tomorrow morning I'll be letting my fleet manager know that since I'm apparently to fat to do my job I'd like to be routed to a terminal to turn in my truck so I can go home. The stress the company causes me by doing stuff like this is the only medical concern I have.

 

100% agree. Good luck to you

 

At a Walmart in De Kalb, IL. I delivered to 3M tonight and with the limited hours I had left this was the closest place. I had to leave my truck in Appleton for a warranty repair so I got stuck in a loaner.

 

In Phoenix, Az getting ready to leave for orientation in Gary. I start on Monday the 15th. Fly out there Sunday. I'm getting really excited about starting my new career, and I'm very happy about being able to work for Roehl. I'm going flatbed national. Just want to say thank you to everyone for all the great information you share here.

 

At gary....drove through chicago today, thought my truck was big til i drovr thru midway airport, that was an unexpected treat.. next runs towards home but doesnt deliver til monday. Not sure what my business is here yet... Sat and sun spring break at roetg..rains got the dust knocked down..maybe get a wash.

 

This is ridiculous. I worked there 12 years and never went to the truck until they had a load assignment for me. I lived more than two hours away from where I parked the truck. Once in a while when things were slow they would tell me to dead head to L'Anse and there would be a load in the morning. But that was a 200 mile dead head up there and I got to spend half the day at home before leaving. It is crazy to think that there are people willing to sit in a truck all day, not getting paid while they could be at home. You can't tell me there is a load that just pops out of thin air and they can't give you an hour notice to get to the truck.

 

Aren't there east coast planners that start work earlier?
