Any drivers for ABF out of Bloomington IL terminal

Just trying to get any info about working at this terminal. What kind of shifts do u work being the low guy, do the new guys get laid off and miss days of work during the week. Thanks for any info you can provide. I have any interview coming up this week with them.

 

What about any Midwest ABF drivers.

 

Thanks for the info, the interview went well and he said the next step is the back ground which could take 3 to 4 weeks to complete.
He said I would start out working dock and driving. He said he had 3 or 4 drivers that could retire soon with one in the process of retiring now and they are getting ready to pick up some more routes. hopefully I would move up some shortly after getting hired and be able to bid a route.
Just don’t like the idea of not knowing what hours I’ll work from day to day til I could get a route, but I also understand that’s how it works and everyone goes through it. I just need to decide if it’s a good move for the family if given the opportunity.
He also said they have only had to lay a guy off 1 time in the last 3 years. Just hard going into the unknown, but it’s hard to beat the benefits and pay for being home everyday.

 

Yah 50 an hour would be hard to pass up. He said they usually don’t work weekends, but sometimes they do if a customer needs something. I’m guessing a more senior go would be all over the OT before it got to the bottom guy.
