My new adventure with Gordon Trucking

They know this I told them that with over 30 years driving and nothing on my record I did not think I would have too much trouble finding another job. The DM said that was very true.

To be honest I do not think it was the DMs fault Both of them said they would send me home but they didnt have the authority to do so.

 

Well here I sit in Fargo nd for the night heading to PAC not sure if this is gonna be my last load or not told them I would work till 15th. This one delivers on 11th and I'll be pretty short on hours guess we shall see

 

This thread didn't go so well. At first it was going good...maybe I'll read more later.

 

It cost about $100 in fuel for you to DeadHead home. Not even a blip on the financial radar. Heck they pay that to fix a burned out trailer tail light.

I deadhead from either Reno or LA to home (350 to 400 mile) and do not bat an eye. It's a cost of doing business.

 

That and taking days and days to get maintenance done.

 

My guess is there's a whole lot of instability in personnel of all kinds, including managers, drivers, planners, and DM's. It's probably all part of the plan.

 

If there is a plan it can not be overly detailed.

They need to see who's left after 6 months....

 

My guess is that is a big reason why drivers are leaving. I winder what there trunover rate is now
