Three Weeks into Freymiller

yep, thats all i needed to know lol thanks

 

Yea they run with cams but I don't even notice it

 

@Trench32125 whats the orientation pay and how many days is it for an experienced driver and where would the orientation be from Virginia thanks.

 

It's in oklahoma city they will fly you out don't remember the orientation pay sorry it's been awhile and it's 2 or 3 days top pay is 40 cpm but the miles are there im still making good money

 

Appreciate the info.

 

Are the trucks automatic??

 

Is driving on the shoulder normal procedure for Freymiller drivers? Or, is it only when Swift blocks the road for miles at a time? Lol

 

Shoulder? No. auto trucks no. If u want an auto they will special order you one I believe one chick in my orientation did that other than that it's 9 speeds and 13 speeds

 

There is a video of one Swifty trying to pass another for miles and a Freymiller driver finally has enough and takes the shoulder to get around them.

 

You are lucky. Get up and go. Pace yourself.

Most companies give a newbie 300 miles paid and 5 days to deliver the pittance. I filled the QC when Anderson did that to me. Sitting on my soda filled sugared ### behind a virginia beach gas station that passes for a truckstop waiting on a reicever appt time into wed of the next week that year after orientation.

What I should have done is put down the van offer and gone specialized. Get to haul battle tanks on a lowboy or something. Maybe tombstones they like so much on flatbeds. It has to be better than what I got that first weekend. 300 mile run because Im not used to working in a big truck. Come on now dispatch, don't insult my intelligence.

That was 30 years ago, Im still angry...
