Hello everyone, I believe this is in the right forum.

Applied for a driver position at Acme Markets out of Denver, PA. My wife's uncle referred me and from what he was saying about the union, environment, work etc, it's going to be a good move from my current tanker position. I've never done food delivery to grocery stores, or what Acme does running to and from warehouses to their own DC here. Not afraid to work and where I work now, it's just not enough. And the pay is barely cutting the bacon. So I heard food service is where it's at and if my inside guy is telling me the truth, I'll be a happy man and be able to not worry about too much financially in a couple years. So question to you all, anyone know about Acme Markets delivering to grocery stores? And as he said I'll be training with him (been doing this business for 15 years, number 40 on acme's list) he'll train me, but what can I expect? Any pointers? Just if you have any info at all. Let me have it. This is a completely new side of the industry for me. And from what everyone I know tells me, I want this to work out.
Thanks all.

Hey Pintlehook, thanks for that link. That's about exactly what I was told. So that's about 4 people telling me the same thing. Four can't be wrong, right? I'm pretty anxious to get going and see what I can do at Acme. This sleeping in the truck 30minutes from home #### is really getting old. My current company just went elogs. Dispatch still thinks we can do the same thing we did when we were on paper. I'm not having any of that. My sleeper birth is my time. Not my problem you didn't schedule better when I gave you 24 hours notice about your failure.

Anyway. I put the app in last Thursday. They sound pretty eager for drivers since they just got 76 new a&p stores to cover. Let's start making that money!

Acme driving job is a good job and with the stores they are getting it should only get better.it is a very laid back place to work. but you will not only be delivering to store's you also will be jockey and might fuel truck's
