dont't be suprised if they keep you on the dirty side (east coast). trucking co's are notorious for keeping you away from home so you won't be tempted to go home for awhile when it's not your hometime. that way you stay out and make THEM money.

What is Centrals avg miles per load? Is it similiar to CRE? Drive Safe
-
It depends on how the freight is running and weather or not you are on a dedicated run like craft averages 2600 a week, the loads are different each time.
depending on the location you are at you might have a 300 mile run then a 1600 mile run the next so we just total up the running for the entire week. -
Who would be the best one to talk to in rec. Just trying to follow up on an app i filled out this weekend. thx

JJ,
I'm not even a trucker yet. I'm in Atlanta and I'm thinkin bout goin to school but I was fired from my previous job about four years ago. I've been self employed for the last four years, not truck related, and I've heard some bad things about folks who've been fired. I've got no criminal record, great mvr, except for a DUI in 1974, no drugs or drinking or smokin either. good health.
Do ya think I could get a job if and when I get my CDL?
If anybody else has any info, tell me straight. Cuz I can't trust a recruiter, unfortunately. -
Wow Lady we only have two kids and home and bad has only been gone just shy of 3 weeks. And I have never in my life been so excited to get him home tomorrow (even if it is just for 4 1/2 days). God Bless you and what you are doing w/ that many children at home. I may need some advice from you on how to maintain the sanity at home. Keep it between the yellow lines boys! And get home safe to your families!

I don't know many people that have as many kids that I do! I don't really know anyone! lol Everyone seems to think we are nuts. Some of the questions I get often is, are they all yours? Of course they are! I gave birth to them all and they have one daddy! LOL I guess that isn't very common these days. I am only 38 so I consider myself growing right along with them. There is NEVER a dull moment around here. They all are very excited that daddy is coming home this weekend. He should be upgraded by Friday. (I HOPE) I actually ended up spending 4 nights in Conley this weekend. I took the twins and we had a ball. Well, they did tearing down the room.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful day!
May God Bless you all and keep you safe always! -
It was hard when he left for SLC for school. But then he came home for a few days before going out with his trainer and that was harder than when he left the first time. It wasn't as bad when I left him the other day in Conley. But I also know he will be home this weekend (for my birthday)! Sanity at home wellll..not sure about that..lol My main focus with this many kids is having them all together as much as possible. My oldest is in college about 2 hours away. He comes home as often as he can. I totally believe in having supper together. We always eat together not matter what! At the table and no TV. It is a whole lot of noise, everyone talking about what's going on with them. It's one rule I always adhere to. I wouldn't trade one of them.
Might send them away for awhile though! LOL
It will all work out!Last edited: Jan 28, 2009

Try and get a hold of Russell in West Valley City, UT he is the head of the recruiting dept. He is some what hard to get a hold of at times so just keep calling until you get him. JJRanchDanB Thanks this.

As long as it wasn't from a trucking Company you should be fine and the fact it was 4 yrs ago.
Just make sure you document all periods of employment and have verification of self employment. be truthful and you will be fine. Just tell them the circumstances behind the incident.
When i went through orientation i had a suspended license when i was 19 and i disclosed it to Central. The reasons people get let go during orientation is, they had a felony, a DUI, tickets and accidents and a lot of them didn't have accurate periods of employment or didn't disclose the info requested so if the only thing you think will hold you back is the fired issue you should be good especially if that was the only time you got fired.
I hope this helps out. If there is anything else you would like to know just ask and i will do my best to answer your questions. JJRanch
