    I am also looking hard at USXPRESS and that account in particular. The money does sound too good to be true, but if the $ is real, I am not scared to work for it.

    Not sure but Could be a transfer or one of the primary carriers at the DC had too many service failures so they brought in extra help.

    What is the home time like for DG dedicated acct? Is it just a 34 hr reset? Or do u get home on Fridays and leave out on Mondays, giving u the full Sat/Sun off? I go to orientation next week for this acct.

    Recruiters almost always lie. As far as making $1600 a week I have no idea how a company driver could make that. It may be possible though.
    Dollar General is staffed by people who're less than motivated in life or half way retired. The unloads are agonizingly slow due to this fact. The lots are typically small and you could be doing a lot of blind side backing.

    Today's my last run with them.
    It's a company that will fill you with lies from the minute the recruiter opens their mouth till the day you walk out the door .

    They survive off of turnover .
    They use technology to get drivers hired faster than any other company in the business .
    Pm me for details .

    Please do your research on Max Fuller and the companies turnover, profits, losses and driver treatment before considering them .

    The larger the sign on the worse the job.

    I'm at the top of the DG pay grade, run 4-6 loads a week and don't see the pay numbers they advertise and I put the work in. I Max out my 70 nearly every week .
