I have a question, the recruiter said i can come to class on Wednesday so i ask her is the first week free she said no. So does that mean i will start with a negative balance ?

Roadcall you pretty much summed up the 2 leases.

Jason.. Seems I'm in Ohio every other week. . We haul out of Columbus, Monroe/Cincinnati, and we used to do Zanesville (but I try and avoid that load. .very heavy) I have a buddy lives in Columbus area driving for ACT. . No problems getting home.
Bronx..Your first payment isn't until the following week. .so you leave orientation, run over the weekend. . Turn your trips in before cutoff Monday. .Your settlement won't include a truck payment.
I'd try to attend starting on a Monday. .gives you 5 days to run plus the sign on bonus and no truck payment. GUESTIMATE your settlement to be 2k+
that's what I did..I think my 1st settlement was $2,300. (Take home)Last edited: Feb 14, 2015

That's what i was going to do until she said my truck payment starts as soon as leave class lol

No. . They want you to hit the ground running. . If your starting out already behind. . What's the use.
Orientation. . Dispatch. .Run your miles. .paid the following Friday. . Then your truck payment starts.bronx156 Thanks this. -
Wow they used to do two weeks before a truck payment. That's kinda rough.

Kujo.. Do you still work for ACT? I'm seeing on Facebook drivers already quitting..Long time drivers of ACT.
No one is talking about why. .I assume everyone is afraid to speak about the giant elephant in the room. -
Where on facebook Jaguar115, Do you thank it's because of the camera they are putting in the trucks?
-
I checked both ACTs page and Marsha's page. Where are you seeing this Jag, I've been waiting to read comments but I don't see any posted?
-
Yeah I'm still here. Driver turnover has doubled in the last year it seems. When i started here a few years ago it was much lower. The 8000 series lease led to a much higher turnover rate and these cameras aren't helping.
