Millis' Reputation

Wow with some of the information given out in here its very easy to see how rumors get started.

 

What do you mean by that? Examples?

 

I guess that is true, I wasn't thinking about regional trucks.

 

There is ZERO issue with turning down NYC or Long Island loads, they have always asked me if I wanted to go there prior to dispatch. Any other load is forced however, turning down a load going to any other city is a problem.

 

I usally request home tinme at least 2-3 weeks in advance but I stay out 4-6 weeks as well I have never had a problem getting home when requested

 

I normally don't have an issue getting home either. I never said I did. I just stated that it's now called a request not a guarantee. And that the 5 cents comes from the dispatchers pay. To get home time you send in a preset form. So there isn't a way to be either rude or nice about it unless you send a free form and ##### about it. Which I do not do.

 

(tried to PM g22mac, but I don't have enough posts, so here it is... anyone can respond... )hey bro, just saw your going through millis' training. I'm going to be going to Richfield June 3rd... just wondering if you can tell me a little bit what its like. I know that a broad question, but I hear some CDL school/companies treat you like you're in boot camp, how it it at Millis? I would figure that since you're paying $500 they might treat you like a human being at least. Also, when is the first time you get paid? I know the three weeks in the hotel, are unpaid... just wondering how that works.

Millis training is nothing like boot camp, quite opposite really. Very laid back, and you will do your fair share of laughing. Above are a few threads that describes the experience quite well. There are quite a few of these threads on this forum.
