CFI Driver's What's Your 20? (2017 edition)

Lake Wales Fl .... Brisk 51F this am.... But still put the shorts on anyway.... Sun feels good ... Unloading TRL Axel's then Bartow to the house .... I gotta rest up for Turkey day

 

Paul,

Enjoy the holiday break you earned it. The wife and I are spending the winter at an Rv park in Winter Haven near Dundee. Great to be retired.

 

Puleo's calamari in Knoxville. 55 degrees tonight, @paul_4lp You could come here to warm up Pauldo! You could warm up in Wisconsin! It was the same temp there yesterday , and they have cheese curds!!!

 

I'm headed to Joplin Sunday to attend orientation Monday with CFI. Can anyone clue me as to the physical fitness test that is required by CFI? I want to be ready.

 

must be new I was hired in April of 18 never had a physical fitness test

 

The only ‘physical fitness’ test that you’ll have to worry about will be the consistantly low paychecks that will be coming your way. Seriously; $550.00 for a full, seven day work week? Nearly every week?

If a heart attack doesn’t do you in within 6-8 months, consider your ‘physical’ passed.

You’re making a big mistake going over to CFI; please keep us posted as you progress.

 

That's only the first year when your still working your way up to a decent wage. After it's not too bad at all. Unless you wanna show some paystubs. Every company in the nation except ones like Walmart are in a rut this year.

 

Not every company , just got paid and hubs check was 1739 for last week. Last 3 wks hubs has ran between 2800-3200 miles

 

You must be doing something wrong or claiming too many dependents...been here 10 years, never seen that even in my first year when I didn't know what I was doing. I'm happy to chat about it with you if you think it will help.

 

Hello I talk to serval new drivers and old drivers like old man rooster u never see Low checks unless ur home a lot or your truck is down . I talked to a lot of drivers say 750 starting out to 1200 but a lot depends on your miles u run per week and ur travel agent aka fleetManager like rooster says.
