Van Wyk Inc.

you really want to go to getting paid for every hour you work to % pay reefer? more power to ya,,,,,,

 

That'll be perfect actually... They get 2-3 loads a day to Central Islip... Long as you got somewhere to park the truck

 

It's not all about the money driver. I'm lumping freight, home deliveries with lift gates, crappy ### 20yr old trucks, making a point? Not to mention the stupid Union games, senority, bids, whining lifers! Yeah I got it made!! $19.30 an hour and all the pride I can swallow, Long live YRC and LtL!

 

Yeah I saw 2 of youse guys at Sysco the other day when I was delivering 1 crumby skid! 1 hour and I had to break that down and segregate it!

 

If you can get in good with Corey and Josh in VA, you'll do pretty good. Those Central Islip trips had the best rates of anything they hauled when I was there. Backhauls pay crap back to VA and have a lot of deadhead though, just FYI

 

i don't have the union crap,but i do the home deliveries and liftgates all day. so i can see that you would want a change,lol i've thought about a change too when i see my trailer loaded in the morning....lol

 

Talked to Tim the other day after putting in an online app, suppose to be getting picked up on Monday by one of the guys to bring me out to Sheldon for orientation.

 

Move to Iowa and get out of that rat race. The money will go a whole lot further

 

Lmao no its not...I'm no long there but hell to get weekends home which was basically 48-72 hours and still make 60 year?? No sir, I was good.. my homeboy still over there is running alot of Midwest and some Texas, he doing pretty well.

For the record I loved running the Midwest I just didnt care for the limited hometime that came with it and the 110% care rating of Tyson loads...

 

I don't work for van wyk so I can't speak for what it's like to work there. My case I live in Iowa city, run pretty much Midwest OTR Ltl, no Tyson, very few truckloads. I'm home every week Friday into Sunday and typically a night during the week and I'm making 75. You got to look for it there's a lot of crappy jobs out there
