New and need to know about Armellini

I guess if your husband wants to team with someone he does not know thats the first issue. They haul flowers out of Florida with multiple stops which makes the pay better, and then back haul goods to Florida.

 

My best friends father is in charge of the O/O's for them. They make decent money. As far as the company drivers, if you haven't been to one of their approved schools.... which are not many, they will not hire you. They try to start you out at something ridiculous like 21 cents a mile and the only thing that kinda makes up for it is that they throw in an extra $150 or so for multiple stops and unloading yourself. The recruiter himself told me you will probably make $800 a week and that's with the multiple stop and unload pay included. Oh, and you are home every weekend but only a day and a half, long enough for you to restart your drive hours and your gone again. They aren't a bad company, don't get me wrong but please research them good and talk to a recruiter a little more as far as their pay.

 

A little about them. They LIE. I worked for them for 3 yrs. At first I thought they were a good company and they were at first. But don't PISS OFF dispatchers because if u do they will starve you, meaning they will let you sit at home for as long as they want.... The pay is not that good they only will start you out at 19 cents to begin with and top you out really fast at .2025 a mile... They DON"T give you an extra $150 for multiple stops and nothing for unloading yourself. You are not home every weekend it depends on who you get teamed up with. Hoping they have a good BID .... During the black-out you are not home for 3 to 4 weeks..... Any other questions you want to ask just let me know......................

 

I worked for them for 3 yrs and if you want to know anything just ask me............

 

Sounds like you are saying it is your hubby's fault for everything.

It is not his fault that he went to orentation and found out that they are a bad company.

Getting his class A cdl was not a waste of time he should of just done his homework about any prospective company before picking one.

The bankrupcy also was not only the hubby's fault.

The trucking escapade as you call it he was only trying to make a decent living for you, him and the kids if any.

In trucking there are people that make it and people that do not make it the most important part of truck driving is having someone at home that supports your decesion.

It is good that he is at a good company now but he could of called another trucking outfit and got a job with them.

I had been prehired with several companies then I found this website and quickly narrowed down my list quickly.

I had one guy that tried to discourage me from going were I went but once I confronted him with the info that I found out he disaperaed from here. Need less to say he was trying to twist the story arround to make him look like the inocent victim.
But with the bad companies I tend to belive the story's a little more.

As I said before some people make it in trucking and some do not.
