    koch still has best buy account. it shares it with werner.
    koch driver uses new internationals. getting out of volvos. driver picks up loaded trl at dc. qualcomm tells him where to go. i ran southeast up to 4 mo.ago. you will usually drive your full 11 and will usually work your 14 and more. you must WATCH the best buy shipping staff unload your trailer. you are supposed to be sure they are not stealing. sometimes this last an hour or more. you are not paid for this but it comes off your 14 hour day. if you are on 10 hour break and BB starts unloading trl, you must watch unload, even if you are on break.
    money is okay at 34/mile.
    you MUST spend nite at a best buy only. if stay anywhere else, you get fired. you must back into dock and spend nite. there are a lot of dark, desolate , back alley docks you must sleep in. very unsafe for driver. good for koch and BB but not for driver.
    you get 1.5 days off week for reset.
    trailers are in bad shape. always something wrong with them. if you wait for it to be repaired, you will be late to BB. if you are late to BB you will be fired. so have to pull trailer and have it fixed after delivery. so do not get caught.
    you are not allowed to unload or load trl but if you do not, you will wait a lot . some of appliances are very heavy and women clerks have to wait for men to help unload, if you do not help. if you do not help, then you will be late for next apt. and you can not be late. etc.
    they pay on time, just not enough. for hours/miles worked.
    benefits are decent.
    you are not paid for actual miles. they use housemovers scale, so you drive quite a bit for free. if you drive out of way to get there on time and it is more miles, you do not get paid for this. you are told how many miles are allowed to next store.
    vans are out of st paul and oklahoma.
    you will be on the clock a lot with this company but only get paid for miles driven.
    good luck.
