I have thought about it, but I don't like office work. Did it for over 20 years before I left.

 

I'll drive your truck! Get back to me so we can talk.

 

i have been driving straight trucks, wreckers, rollbacks, and car haulers with 36ft trailers, i recently just decided to get my cdl class a. the last few years i have been a supervisor/manager in the automotive industry, which has dried up for me. i have a great resume, am dependable and would love to be considered to drive for you.

 

are you still looking for a driver?

 

If your still looking... inmate and I will drive for you! I don't know where you are but I will relocate. I believe inmate is in Wi.

 

i would relocate if need be. i am out of michigan but that doesnt mean nothing. i dont have any reason to get home on a regualr basis, so i can go with the flow. also, i am good at keeping up on truck maintenance, so you wouldnt have to worry about the truck. i am willing to partner up if need be, but solo is prefered. i have been laid off for awhile and am in dire need of a job. i am a great employee and would be a good add to your company. any other info you need, just let me know

 

Tuckster,

I don't know if you are still following this thread, but let me tell you...

Do your due diligence when hiring anyone. Don't rely on driving records and insurance companies. Really do some digging, and I mean dig.

My experience (small fleet owner) and my good friend's, a guy I used to drive for, is that you will likely have to go through at least ten drivers before you find a good one.

Trust me on that. And while all of that is going on, just hope and pray that they do not tear up your equipment to badly. Because they will tear it up, because you are rich! And can afford it!

Don't be nice, and lay the LAW DOWN. If they want the job badly enough, they will stay and do it your way. You can usually tell in a week or two if they are keepers. If you even have the slightest doubt in your gut, fire em! When you find the right guy you will know. Then you can loosen the reins and become more human with them. That is after they have proven themselves over at least 6 months to a year.

The wrong guy can make your life a living hell, trust me on that.

You're right about that! At first they will drive with an escort passinger! And back ground is a must! My first two drivers I already know and have known them for some time but beyond that I'll have to be careful indeed.
