JBS live haul

Plainwell does...

Had one jump to the front of the line while I was waiting for my turn in the chute.....I'm like hey WTF ??

turns out they go to the front of the line... :smt102

 

All I can say is some of them boy's have been around a long time. So I'm guessing swift is not hiring or somehow they are making them nickels do what it do from week to week. I thought they were on a set salary myself, but not sure. Also the feedlots they pick up at aren't to far from Greeley or cactus so I doubt very seriously if someone is doing 1 load a day.

 

I don't know, I'm just relaying what I was told by a few of their drivers at five rivers, they told me they had been there since 7am....... It was after 2 when I got there and they hadn't loaded the first truck yet, and there was 15+ of them there, you ain't gonna break any load records at that rate no matter how short of a haul it is, and I've seen several of them like that....

 

the bull haulers i know that drive for JBS in Green Bay WI
dont make much but like saying they are bull haulers
they dont even get a hood to drive
one still dresses like a cowboy
having a belt buckle as big as he is seems to be his main ambition

 

what about pointy toe boots ?!?

 

Here's from the website:

JBS Carriers has a fleet of more than 750 trucks and employs more than 900 people. We offer carrier services to JBS USA, Pilgrim’s Pride and other customers throughout the U.S. Our non-refrigerated Specialized fleet consists of live haul (cattle and hogs), tanks, container chassis and grain hoppers. We also provide dedicated fleet services in Texas and Georgia to meet and exceed the logistical needs of our customers.

 

JBS has cattle haulers based out of Greeley, Co., I see them all the time. A few of them have had their butts beat for trying to jump ahead of other drivers, they were kicked out of one feedlot a couple of year back. In Greeley, the cattle drivers are also container drivers and haul the bone meal containers to the ramp in Denver. Based on what I've encountered, some of these guys make SWIFT drivers look like Ph'd candidates.

 

1 more driver who don't know what he is talking about. The cattle drivers haul cows. The container driver pulls containers, the tanker drivers pull the tanker. The local day cabs haul from the plant to the cold storage, some do local deliveries the otr drops off, and some go to laprino foods in ft Morgan, and drop it off at Millard or laprino plant in Greeley. Reefer drivers we just haul butt. Boxed butts that is, and other deceased parts of cow's & hogs.

 

You're right, I never see these guys, I never talk to them. Give it a rest.

1. Two JBS container drivers have been banned from the UPRR in Denver in the last 5 months, both for flagrant violations of UPRR policy. JBS tried to go to bat for the driver, JBS was warned by the UP they could lose all operating privileges at UP in Denver. This came direct from a UPRR gate clerk who was involved, and a JBS driver who was a witness to the incident. Last Sept., one of the JBS can driver was chewed out twice in one day, the first time by the packer operator for failing to go to the flip zone. 5 hrs later, he was chewed out again, by the hostler supervisor, the lift operator and the ramp manager for the same thing. The next day, he was banned for 30 days for the exact same violation.

2. Dec. 2013, JBS cattle driver was cold ####ed for cutting ahead of another cattle truck at the plant in Ft. Morgan. The same driver was banned from the plant after repeatedly doing this.

3. The cattle drivers, container drivers and tanker drivers are interchangeable, I also haul out of JBS in Cactus, Tx. I've seen on several occasions guys come in with a cattle trailer, unload, and hook to a container and take off with it. I've also an several occasions talked to the container drivers at the UP ramp in Denver, some days they run 5 cans, some days they run 3 cans, some days they run 8 cans. There are day cabs and sleepers running them, it all depends on what dispatch needs done. If it's slow running cans, they maybe asked to do something else, it depends on need.

4. From comments made by the clerks at the DIX, Crown and TSL, JBS drivers are some of the dumbest drivers going. They don't/won't follow directions, they routinely park where they are told not to. Back in Dec., I had a JBS sleeper driver at DIX picking up an empty, ask me and another driver how to shorten his chassis, um, this is first day, first hour instruction. It was his first time hauling a can, but they didn't bother to show him what to do.

5. During the reconstruction of York/Josephine/40th, JBS drivers routinely ignored the remarked truck route to access the ramp. The result, Denver PD began monitoring the routes very closely, I know a couple of JBS drivers who were stopped and warned or cited for this. I never saw any driver for the other drayage companies violating the route, only JBS, I guess those signs weren't big enough.

The part you did get correct, you're gov. at 67 mph max (most of you are at 65 mph), the only butt you haul belong to deceased animals
