My experience with USA truck and some general advice

Good luck with it. There is good and bad in most as I'm sure you'll read.

 

i don't care what anyone says, USA is a good Co. to start with. if you get a good FM and build a good relationship with them you can go far.
my biggest problem with them wasthe way they took care of their equiptment

 

I agree 100% a good FM and healthy relationship is key. So far I've had good luck with trucks and FM but some of these drivers are content with just dumping a sh**y trailer at the next stop and leaving it for someone else to deal with. I wonder if it wasn't such a pain and so time consuming to deal with breakdown if that would change.

 

there-in lies the problem. it takes TWO HOURS to get a mudflap replaced

 

Yeah I definetly have to agree breakdown sucks I'm just glad I've only had the misfortune of dealing with them a few times. An hour and a half of the 2hr mudflap deal was probably tryin to get them on the phone.lol

 

usually it was the "new" system over the 'puteeer that waas supposed to "speed things up" LMAOO yea right

 

What fleet were u in panhandle? If u don't mind my asking

 

fleet 28 jeff then mike then another mike. my #### FM's kept getting promoted LOL

 

a lot of companys are like that, I operate a boom truck... done it 5 years, trained a guy last year, I was proud to be asked to do it, then a week after the guy starts the job hes trainin the next new guy. New guys does everythin wrong an makes us all look bad

 

You should'nt have trained them so well.lol....That's what I told my fm about the time I get you trained they'll promote you and I'll have to start all over.
