Hahaha... If you already have a Class A and applied at my old barn, you are on your own buddy.

"Here's your 32 stops, here is the list of three trailers to hook, and as long as your truck can physically propel itself forward, it's in service. Don't lolligag".

 

Well, my buddy did Little Caesar’s. They pull heavy loads daily 40k plus. Unload all in one day. He said he’s averaging around 20k-35k loads. But the pallets are extremely organized it scoops off the pallet. He doesn’t stack his wheeler. Makes a big difference. Runs the electric jack with the pallet to the back door or even into the store. Also they don’t load no product in the freezer or cooler racks they wheel it in and off the 2wheeler is where it goes. They do Wendy’s, The Habit, and I can’t remember the othe chain restaurant. He does no mom and pops. So no stairs. No separating product. His trainer who’s been in Foodservice for 20 years says it’s the easiest food gig he’s ever had and will retire there. He’s done McLane etc.. Id try it out but my area they do mom and pops and restaurants. I think his terminal is pretty locked on. They are basically throwing money at my friend. He even got a route off the bat. He did his training for couple weeks on the route he was getting. He works sun night, mon night, off tues, off weds, works thurs-fri night, off Sat. He said he could easily make 100k but doesn’t want extra work. His check was around 88k-90k a year. He’s not the most hustle and fast guy and he loves the job and isn’t planning on going anywhere. I think it’s just his location. He also said it’s about 140 case and hour. Which at Mclane they want you at 180 a hour. Also if your not fast they won’t fire you they’ll just give you what you can handle and it’s not to weed you out. It’s to make your life easier cause not everyone works at the same pace. They drive new Pete’s also new liftgates. No LTL liftgate junk. Foodservice tends to have the nicer Liftgates. If a Shamrock is in your area and it’s a chain restaurant division I’d jump on it. If you can ask to see the loads at the interview how organized they are. Ask a lot of questions. They know the job isn’t for everyone but I think in Foodservice my buddy has found probably one of the best.

 

My buddy commutes an hour for that shamrock job.

 

Does his truck have a driver facing camera? I've heard that Shamrock has them.

 

Yes tell me more, I could go for good old fashioned lift gating it would be a nice change of pace.

 

That I don’t know I’ll ask.

 

Yeah man. These guys over here are driving new Pete’s and liftgates.

 

I haven't read any bad things about Reddaway. I'd actually prefer to do daily physical labor so maybe I should consider applying to them .
