So true, and I hear Roehl will allow you to be a trainer after only 6 months of experience as well. MO Family Man, can you verify?
I don't necessarily disagree with you Road Dog. My point from the beginning of the thread was that one person in the company, usually a DSR, can...
Children? First of all, I don't like your tone, or the insinuation you're making here. Second, since you were a 2nd Lt, that means you have a...
Interesting that JBC's question was clearly and thoroughly answered in the quote above it.
Roehl's "Honor Program" deserves mention here as well. As a veteran, this sounded good to me. I could spend my first year or two getting paid on...
She sounds like the same Evo III DSR that I had. Unfortunately for Roehl, drivers coming out of Evo III expect this same level of professionalism...
From both the safety department, and the terminal manager, it was "wellll.....if it keeps happening, let us know..." That was when I knew that...
Most of our interaction with the company we drive for is through one person, the dispatcher (in my case), DSR for most other drivers. Through this...
Getting paid a salary in the trucking industry is pretty rare, so I was having a little trouble making my point there. My second trip out of the...
Thanks Road Dog. The most important feature of the Honor Program is that we are paid a salary, not cents per mile. This point is key to to my...
Road Dog, I wasn't referring to the company having unrealistic expectations of me, but of me (or others in the Honors Program) having unrealistic...
Small world. I grew up in Livingston Parish. I tried to respond to your PM, but I don't have enough posts yet (need 50). I also tried to post...
Yep, a two year test drive, getting the kind of miles that everyone would switch companies for. Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of confidence...
I'm the guy from Hammond, LA that was in MO Family Man's truck for training evolution II. My very first full week (7 days) out of the house, I...
Congrats L.B. I just joined Roehl's Honor Program. I'll be starting Evo 2 in a few days. The Honor Program seemed like a real good plan for me...
Day one of orientation is over, and the road test went ok. I could have been smoother on my shifting, but just a case of nerves I guess. The guy...
Thanks for all the good advice LKat. You're right about us southerners and our grits, but I like shushi too, so looks like all my food issues are...
Thanks Road Dog, I'm looking forward to it.
Well, trucking school is over, and I have my shiny new CDL. Just spoke to my recruiter, Cheryl, and I'll be flying in to Atlanta for orientation...
That's where this forum has been invaluable!! The school I'm attending don't actually push these companies, or even mention them in class, but...
