NICE, Red Fox! I had a recorder and was able to record a former employer who wasn't paying me for my loads. Yes, a recorder is worth its weight...
Nope. They don't want numbers or links. If I am trying to convey a point, I always make sure to say "Just Google 'x company' and apply online."...
A quick Google search says this is the 700 Club Hotline. Oh yoi...
Ha ha! Yes, I was going to say that too!
If you're looking at NC, there is (from what I hear) a decent company there called Swing Transportation. That is, if you are possibly looking at...
Holy crap, thank you Paddington!!! I see you're from Cleveland, so you may be one of the guys who pulls to Pittsburgh. I saw the Dolphin, but...
Thanks, Scooter. VERY good point, too, by the way. I don't mind bugging people. I do have a tendancy to overthink everything, so that could be an...
This also happens when hauling mail. In June 2007, I was laid off from a mail hauler called Rood Trucking (first layoff of two, mind you). We lost...
Ha ha! Thank you, Scooter! I have been bugging the companies I have applied at, but was waiting a little.....My wife has me paranoid that being a...
Thanks Walleye! Right now, they have two facilities close to me; Irwin (50-plus miles away, but if it gets me in the door, we can always move...
Well, I stopped today at the Pittsburgh terminal and, as my luck would have it, the terminal manager was on vacation. I did, however, talk to a...
Well, evidently I struck out. The terminal manager Jeff apparently does NOT need drivers, although everyone says they do. They blame it on the...
I have so many apps in with so many people, but no one is calling me! I applied at Magnum but haven't been called. It can't be that bad out there!
I've worked with people who told me M.S. was a great place to work and the only reason they left was because of Swift. I wish there were...
When I went to do a paper app here in Pittsburgh, their dock was pretty slow. The dispatcher also unloaded when trucks (or in this case truck)...
Ha ha! For me, it was JB Slow, but now your name for them is MUCH more appropriate!!! Oh, and even though I am "too far" from the terminal for...
That is exactly what I am doing tomorrow morning! I may be overdressed, but I am going around tomorrow to all the companies I know of, in a shirt...
That is awesome, Walleye! I hope to get on with them or another LTL carrier. Unlike mail contractors, LTL seems to have a future AND benefits!!!...
I got called from Con Way Truckload today. They told me that if I were a team, I could get in to orientation now. However, going in as a single,...
D'oh!!! ######, I knew better than to post the link....For future reference, just Google whatever company you are looking for. Anyway, I have...
