Heartland will ruin your DAC

Well I would have to say the buck stops with tthe driver. A desk is not the concern of the DOT. What the driver does with his rig is.
I never blame a dpr for what I do because it is my choice. It is just a fact of OTR trucking That being on the A team versus the B will require the driver to be creative with some loads. When I read some posts on here I wonder what trucking industry some drivers think they are a part of.

 

HappyHardCore,
I am new to the trucking industry; in fact I start school next month in Jan. I am trying to research so that I can avoid the headaches of signing up with a bad or headache company. After reading your post I will definitely keep this post in mind. Thanks

 

Where? Would like to know... thanks

 

A dress code for OTR drivers makes me laugh. Sure thing HR, I'll put a new suit and tie on after every 10. Most of these guys out here don't even shower or wash between the crack of their ***, do we really care if their shirts are sleeveless? On the flip side, if you're stupid enough to wear flip flops while operating an 80k pound piece of rolling machinery, you probably deserve to lose at least a couple of toes in the process...

 

Heartland's recruiters said they haven't been on paper logs for 3+ years now, and they don't use Quallcom, they use PeopleNet. Seems like you've got your information mixed up or you haven't worked there in quite some time. Why post this issue now?
Also, their CSA scores make it seem like they wouldn't be the type to bend the rules like you're suggesting.

 

I think more companies are looking at your csa score now these days as im sure most know other companies lie especially when another calls them while your still driving for them. can anyone chime in about this.

 

PSP's are typically looked at to the see the frequency and types of violation (in my experience). What is shown on the PSP may be used to asked questions to potential employees to see if you'd want to hire them. But mostly, nobody cares.
