    RATS!!!!! I can't send a PM yet!!!!!!!!!!!
    So, is there someone I could speak with about Canada? I did apply to Celadon, but at the time, I wasn't sure if it would be a good fit. I don't want to be labled as a job hopper, since I've been with 2 different outfits since last Oct.

    Anyway, I'm heading back out this morning, I'll catch up within a week. Thanks all for the replies, it's much appreciated:biggrin_25514:

    The Canadian account pays an an extra .07 a mile on top of your base pay which with 16 months exp will probally be aroubd .32 a mile plus the the extra .07 so you would be making .39 a mile. When I looked into last week It was almost full. Celadon isnt a bad company. Hell we get a weeks paid vacation every 30,000 miles. If you want more info you can message me and Ill give you more insight

    If you have a good record they will hire you. Call Celadon and talk to Brenda or was it Becky and they will help you out

    Called Celadon. Since I'd already applied there, and was accepted, I thought it would be a shoein. WRONG! Brandon, the recruiter I dealt with, turns out to be an outside contractor for them. He had me all setup to go to orientation right after Thanksgiving. After calling Celadon last week, and talking with an in house recruiter, I found out that I'd actually been rejected, due a better applicant. Glad I hadn't taken Brandons statements as true.
    So, I tried Roehl, same thing, but at least I got it from one their own recruiters.
    Now, neither company told me it would be useless to reapply, but I'm wondering if it would actually be worthwhile.
    So, now I'm trying with Buske, not the perfect fit to keep me in Canada, but at least a bit better pay, and hopefully a truck that I won't be embarrassed to bring home.

    A special thanks to "designors", I got your PM, and found Buske that way.

    Well, back to Canada in the morning, still in a blue truck.:mrolleyes:
