[ATTACH] t [IMG] The last Dollar General trailer I unloaded in '13. [ATTACH]
My personal experience with Dollar General was regional. I was home from Saturday afternoon/evening until late Monday morning. Most guys didn't...
Sounds like a good setup. A podcast I was listening to the other days was discussing using a dispatch service like that. If I was to get to the...
I'm running Meijer loads for JB Hunt right now. My last 940,000 miles have been primary round trips between mid Michigan and southern Wisconsin....
I'm also curious to see what suggestions come in to see how they compare to what I'm being offered. As the guy who would be driving the second...
I have something in the works to go work for a guy who's looking to add a second truck. We haven't finalized the details but we're looking at a...
They exaggerated the income potential. 1300 to 1400 gross is more realistic. Most runs are round trips between Lansing and NE Illinois/SE...
Meijer has a private fleet that runs day cabs. All I know about them is that their drivers look down their noses at the JB Hunt guys. After 3...
And now the bad side of the account.... They seem to have a policy against fixing the trucks between PMs. I don't know if it's a JB Hunt thing or...
Unless you work nights, you're days off won't be consecutive until you get some seniority. I start at 6am and my days off are Monday and Friday....
I make that much sometimes but not every week. The bonus is real. I'm averaging around 23-2400 miles per week. Not big money but I have a life...
I've been at it for almost 2 months now, and I'd say the good outweighs the bad. The guys that work the night shifts have 2 days off in a row,...
Finally got medical clearance today, so tomorrow I can get out there and see what happens. The DC I'm running out of is very close to my house,...
I'm trying very hard to remain positive. I told the recruiter about my medication. He said it wouldn't be a problem. At orientation, they said...
I started out double clutching on my road test last week. After a couple rough downshifts, I went back to what I'm comfortable with and things...
I was taught in school that double clutching correctly was little more than tapping the clutch. I personally find that things go better without...
I have a road test coming up next week. Going from 18 speed floating the gears to 10 speed and trying to remember to use the clutch. Should be fun!
I was a trainer for USX for 5 years. I found that the students who graduated a program at a community college received far better training than...
If it was me, I'd either ask the examiner or just tap the clutch to give him a good show. As long as you don't us too much clutch, it shouldn't...
It's good to find a thread with a couple positive opinions on JB. I haven't decided, but I'm thinking about giving them a try. They have...
