My career starts at Freymiller

Ok so it's been awhile since my last update. I love it here at Freymiller. As a student I'm still with a trainer for a couple more weeks but it's not bad. We get along great and he's more than happy to let me do the driving. Until he was comfortable we ran as a solo. I'm averaging 3,500 miles a week. I decided to stay out for Xmas and New Years so I could get the extra time in but Freymiller offered to let me go home. They are very direct with their concern for driver happiness (to a point. You can't make EVERYONE happy lol) My trainer had some medical stuff to take care of so we got a load to send us to his home in Phoenix. I told Freymiller I wanted to go home while he was home (He was going to be home from Jan 5th-Jan 10th) They didn't ask any questions. They booked me a rental car to be picked up at the airport in Phoenix and they paid for it. I only had to pay for gas and, since they had a hybrid available, my 1,700+ mile round trip only cost me $80 in gas. I left Monday morning and drove the ten hours home and got there in early evening. I was able to stay home until Saturday afternoon (we had a pre-plan dispatch for Sunday morning). Everything is 100% no touch loads. I can't tell you how happy I am so far. My trainer just bumped us to team loads as he has been sleeping while I drive without issue. Once I'm able to master docking I'll test out and get my own truck. (Hopefully within 2-3 weeks) I hope this has been helpful. Once I get into my own truck I'll update again and let you know how the pay/miles/etc. are. Keep your Shiny Side Up!

 

I've already BEEN with a trainer. Did you not read my last post lol? I should be testing out of my trainer's truck in 2-3 weeks to get my own. I have an AWESOME trainer.
