Hello Ringo, I'm glad to be some help to you. There's a lot of incomplete and negative information out there concerning our new career. Not...
Man, I so agree! What is it about letting others shape your decisions out of fear? With all due respect, halfburn, you didn't need to say...
Lol! Smoke, that's funny. I wonder if one can make money sitting on the couch drinking beer and watching sports center? Now there's a job! At...
Hey Choo Choo. Good luck with that. When did you leave C-1? Did we cross paths?
That's good to hear. I was very happy with C-1 and wanted to pass that along. There's enough negative stuff out here. I remember when I first...
Hello all, I'm pretty new here. Last time I posted I was about to start my driver training at C-1 in North Little Rock, AR. I have a job...
That's what I'm confused about. PAM (from my understanding) doesn't run team except during training and the trainee gets paid a straight...
I'm confused. I know in training with PAM you run team with your trainer, and you get paid $300/week. But after that it's .25/mile (less the 5%...
lol! If we can't make fun of lawyers, who can we make fun of?:yes2557:
Jwayner, if it were me I would not draw attention to that fact by any outward act. This isn't legal advice, just common sense. Your recruiter...

I was a business owner in the automotive industry here in NW Arkansas for 5 years -- that went kaput with all this recession mess we're going...
This is what's so weird about all of this. They advertised in my area for this job (NW Arkansas). Of course, this is their HQ. Why keep hiring...
BTW Greenacres, about how many miles would you say you are averaging a week over a 1 month period?
You make very good points and I do appreciate it -- very much. It is scary to be sure. So many industries are taking a hit. It's like I have a...
I know it is tough out there. I can't speak for anyone else's driver agent, but mine has not made me any promises. I keep track of the health of...
*Chuckle* That's quite alright. I'm definitely stepping up by moving from law to trucking. :biggrin_255: But why so hard on Swift???
Lol! Actually, I retired from law before all of this. But I think we all see the hurt being spread over much of the economy.
I'm scheduled to start training (was for this Monday now for the 15th by my choice) and my driver agent told me about the pay cut. What she said...
Hello all, I'm new to these boards, and new to trucking. In fact, going to training on Monday so I have no experience in these matters....
