    Anybody here know much about them? Good or bad company? I don't ever see too many jobs posted by them. Makes me wonder if they have a low turnover rate. The pay rate on their postings is pretty good.

    One of their drivers recently caused a deadly accident. The guy wasn't paying attention around a construction zone area and plowed into a food truck, killing its driver.

    Maybe try searching for a company who's drivers don't comit vehicular manslaughter??

    Typical big company distributor. Job pays about $24 an hour. Not much in OT. You work 10 hours a day, 4 days a week. You need a doubles endorsement to be qualified. Job consists of delivery to various flooring showrooms and home depots and such, line haul work, and yard jockey. The work is mildly physical, and on slow days, you might have to help in the warehouse.

    It's a great job if all you're looking for is a 9-5 type job and about a $1000 a week.

    You can also go on you tube and look up Shaw flooring and watch their video on what it's like to drive for them.

    Know a guy that drove for them, said he liked it. Got paid hourly and all he did was run shuttles/line haul.

    Do you drool on yourself while driving down the road?:knob:



    I applied a few years ago to work there, but never received any word back from them. If I remember correctly, had to take a sort of cdl knowledge test when applying which I liked.
