I’m in south Indiana; I was interested in our Midwest regional until I was informed a trk downsize was in order (I have too much stuff). I also...
Yes, I left money on the table with kllm by taking hometime; I very rarely got the production bonus, is that bonus still a thing for otr with the...
I avgd 2500 on otr; would’ve gotten the production bonus if I didn’t go home. I think they still have the bonus but I switched to dedicated, more...
No APUs, but idle policy doesn’t exist, isn’t enforced, or not penalized. There might’ve used to be one, because I used to occasionally receive...
If you were supposed to be on duty for it, then the department that’ll ding you is log audit. I’m not aware of them requiring us to go on-duty for...
I wouldn’t worry too much about it; I’ve gotten dinged by log audit before for not logging fueling on hometime, it technically messed up my whole...
Tysons be tight; I dread going to them.
This eerily sounds like my experience… except I’m still with kllm… I’ve got 2 cats, one is with me, the other with sister. I love my cats, but...
Some Kllm dedicated accts have mostly long hauls. I’m on Saputo cheese and usually go from KY/NE (northeast) to CA and back. Occasionally I get TX...
I’d love to try training… I don’t have much experience, but the bar for a “decent” trainer seems pretty low. My company seems to think “doubling”...
Huh? That’s the Bear! My first dog, a golden retriever. Sadly, I lost her at 9 to kidney failure. She was survived by Sniffles, the Lion (a cat)....
Yes, as I said, I don’t understand why the passing truck feels the need to hold up traffic for 10mi. If I don’t have PasSmart available, I reduce...
A lot of those FedEx day cabs seem to be governed at 66, vs some otr companies at 65. I’ve seen a lot of slug races between them and other drivers...
Is having PasSmart uncommon? I always speed up when passing, I don’t want hang around all day trying to pass someone either. If I run out of it,...
All kllm/ffe schools use automatics now. Can’t be any worse then Jackson, you get what you don’t pay for. Some of the road construction zones near...
A million mile kllm driver got fired for increasing their governed speed; our new elds, platform sciences, supposedly tattle on speed. The qualies...
idk much; @Jenn72 is ffe. As far as I’m aware our hometime policies are similar: 2 days off per 7 out, caps at 14, but she’s mentioned keeping...
Nah, at kllm first 3 mos loads were longer, then it drops; but if you hustle with dispatch, they can ask the planners for longer runs. I’ve spoken...
I did that at kllm, don’t know if they put anything on my DAC. I’m a moron though, so stay in school kids.
You’re too far from Kllm yards, but FFE has a yard in Denver. Our hometime, vacation, and other policies should be pretty similar. At kllm, it’s...
