TransAm Trucking, Inc. - Olathe, Ks.?

well they dont plan things out in advance that is for sure
they figure they will fix it with a swap
i been back and forth colton ca to flagstaff twice in 3 days because
i cant get to los lunas nm on time
but at least i am moving on holiday weekend
so i been quiet

there is a reason why trip planners are behind closed doors

 

Amazing, ain't it. Some things just never change. Had the exact same problems when I worked there.

 

Sure enough they think a swap will fix everything. And a swap will fix things for them, but sometimes for the driver it makes it worse.

 

I found another hiring ad for Trans Am. It said that they paid T/A Practical Miles. What is that?

 

I don't know what T/A Practical Miles would be. My understanding is that practical miles are based on PCMiler and are normally the best routes for big trucks, mostly interstates. HHG miles are shortest routes but may not be the best or most timely because of small towns, lower speed limits, etc.. So are T/A Practical Miles a hybrid formula that TransAm has come up with? Curious......anyone else have any ideas what this is?

 

you look on tysons bills and there is a mileage point to point there also
that must be what transam is paid
then some accountant type figures how much the load gets
just like we really dont know if transam gets detention pay
i'm sure family dollar lowes bud pay for using our trailers as storage for days on end
fuel charge is always less then national avg
transam makes money off of everything they touch
i suppose that makes it smart buisness

 

Husband is getting ready for fourth swap in last 3 days......fun times at TransAm. So far two of the swaps would make it into the record books ....LOL..... Maybe I should write a book!

 

worst swap ever was some poor guy coming to get my trailer at the TS
going to a walmart 2 miles away because i was out of hours
bring me back my empty 3 hours later
and get going back down the road

 

Wow. You got all the pay and didnt have to do any of the paper work. That is the perfect swap for you. Sucks to be the other guy.

 

hey just had a few things to ask I worked with trans am a year ago and been over seas with the army. when I worked for them I was very very successful.


but the things id like to know is any thing any one can tell about the t680.

big thing id like to know is dose it have the TV mount????
