I came off the road to take a job with covenant transport on the jonesville, sc acct. i was told M-F regional. I ask before starting if id ever have to leave out early to make loads on time and was assured i wouldnt, it was strictly m-F. I started the job after a boring week in chattanooga doing their Backing course designed for parking lots and shopping centers which was a good idea in theory for new drivers, after i got to jonesville i was told to arrive on tuesday morning. The ended up being T-sat which was no different, still 5 days. After 2 weekstje job became the normal : leave a day early to start your week off regional job. I became pissed bc i was building a house, the while reason i came off the road to begin with. When i ask my dispatcher 1 of tje 2, they are on site of the warehouse, what was going on with the days he said its never been 5 days a week and then beginntonask me to pull loads extra days making it a 7 day job then a reset . Complete lies from one end to the next, i ask numerous recruiters and personell before coming on board just to shafted and put in a hole. The job is easy if you can back, the moneys good if you can work 6 days a week, about 4 of us were running 4-5 3&4 stop loads everyweek while others struggled with 3. You can make money but itll be in you bed full of lies. Good luck

I deliver dollar general stores sometimes and they all appear to be run by crack heads here lol. Is it the same way where you are at?

Did they quote any bible verses while they were explaining why working on Sunday is a good thing?
Savor the Flavor, mjd4277, x1Heavy and 3 others Thank this. -
So you wanna be a truck driver? Lol. We all know everything in this industry is apt to change at any given moment. When you have 70 hours available the way the company makes a profit is by using your truck for 70 hours. Not 50 hours and then two days off.
Western flyer and FlaSwampRat Thank this. -
I think they should raise it to 90 hrs a week. 70 hrs is for wimps.
