    Sitting in NJ getting partially unloaded. Then heading to Mass to finish off. Then back to the terminal in NC to finish off this week. We ran the hell out of this truck, and I've learned a good bit already. Looking forward to getting home, drinking a beer to a week gone by, and waiting on next weeks first dispatch to get the wheels rolling again.

    Sounds like a good first week! How many miles did you all end up with?

    Do they pay deadhead miles? I'm actually slated to start with them mid-October and am lined up with a trainer out of Rocky Mount. Of course I still need to complete CDL school which I feel comfortable that I will.

    Yeah. They pay practical miles on any dispatched miles, deadhead, bobtail, whatever. If you're told to do it, you're paid for it.

    When I used to drive for Cargo I stopped at a small Pilot near Gary IN, they had a big board of different business card/recruiting cards for various companies. I got a big chuckle because there was one for Cargo on it.
