I was looking at Mast website and it's not clear. How do they define "students"; does this mean the hire new cdl grads or do they have their own cdl school? Age requirement isn't on there either.
One place on the website has : Regional OTR Driver One year of Experience Required
Then another place it has "Students are considered full-time employees at Mast Trucking and are eligible for all benefits, including health insurance and paid vacation."

Check out Wel companies out of De Pere, Wisconsin. Theyre all reefer and have on KWs and Petes. They buy new trucks every year i believe .

I understand, that I hack on narcissists on these boards all the time (I REALLY do hate them with a passion)...but I don't feel like this guy is asking more than he probably deserves. He has put in 4 years, and if he has a clean MVR, no accidents, no damage claims on cargo---all that stuff---he should have the right to make some demands. Companies have their demands/standards why can't we.
When I was OTR, I told companies "I don't do the east coast, I don't go west of the Rockies, and I'm home EVERY weekend...if you can't give me (and my 25 years accident free experience) that, don't hire me".

EDIT: Shaffer doesn't equip APUs (they do have opti-idle), and you have to pay for an inverter (Can payroll deduct over time.)Last edited: Jul 2, 2017

For a new driver is reefer a good place to start? I would think it would be easier to move from reefer to dry rather then the other way round. I ask because I might be going to Navajo that have APUs, Kenworths, decent pay, no forced dispatch, etc but realize it's reefer work. I know they do some drop and hooks with reefer. My other option is Werner dry van.
