    LOL! So you got the joke then? If their web site stinks that bad...wonder what the company is like. There is absolutely NO information on their web site...NONE. This tells me one thing---they want you to call, so the recruiters can size you up, and pitch a sale.

    I have been talking to a recuiter, I will let you know what I find out. However, keep in mind, since I am Military AND a Driver, the name 'recruiter' means something to me....

    Its been said a million times on this forum......"Your experience can and most likely will vary. "

    Anything with an England attached to it says run like hell to me.

    Per diem is .10, the recruiter did not answer the question about being stuck in Salt Lake City, but did say they had all late model Cascadia 9 and 10 speeds and a few auto shifts, if I do go with them, I hope to get a 10 speed. They are on my list of potentials.

    The only thing they have to do with England is the last name. The Old Man still is out there Driving a truck. They are a pretty good company, nothing extravagant, but they certainly arent a mega-carrier. Their yard is pretty good sized and they have a nice shop and a truckwash and there is a hue freightliner dealership 2 blocks to the north. They are very nit picky though and do alot of micromanagement. But their drivers are pretty loyal and you don't see them in a truckstop complaining too much

    you must be able to read lips OR they are not allowed to talk on citizen band transceivers OR you have excellent eyesight along with being able to read lips. do you park door to door with the other drivers so you can do any or all of the above?

    never mind. you drive for them i assume.

    merely adding humor there driver.

    Lol, no I drive for Schneider. I had applied there lastyear and another drover throwing the N-word around Iin the drivers lounge and gave them back their app and told them I couldnt work there. I know Is unfair to punish the whole company for one idiot, but I have zero totolerance for that crap, especially when its in the actual place of employment.
     
    Snowshoes Thanks this.

    Sounds pretty good 65mph@ 11 hrs is 715 miles, five days a week is 3,575 @.32 mile is $1.144.00 before taxes. more likely going to be 2500 miles (or less) in 5 days (or 7) so at .32 mile that's $800.00 before taxes, soooooo you will probably take home about around $600.00 a week, not counting all them great bonuses of course.
