(another) In school, looking for the "right" company to team with...

NoCoCraig and T.Bear AKA Craig and Anne You can also keep up with them on this thread :http://www.thetruckersreport.com/tr.../130056-team-starting-out-with-us-xpress.html

 

They seem to really have it together.. and seem like nice folks..

What I have learned from them most is its all about ATTITUDE... If you have one with the office people or other drivers you aren't gonna last long and Paitence and kindness can work wonders..

 

I'm impressed that you knew exactly who I was referring to, so yes you are correct. I guess I don't need to have him PM me for the link now....was just worried that if I posted the link I might cause a server crash on their blog site...LOL.

Here is the link to their Blog also: http://www.anneandcraigleonard.wordpress.com

 

They are an inspiration for H/W teams ..

 

I will vouch for USX as a team company as well. They really kept us running. My co-driver was an idiot and I couldn't take that anymore so I dumped him. Now I'm a trainer there. If I ever find a suitable co-driver I would jump right back into teams.

I ran into a H/W team that I went to CDL school with. They ended up at Conway and loved it there. The pay is the same as USX. I think the difference is they get to "bank" their hometime. If they were out 8 weeks they get 8 days off.

 

I love this thread thank you NFE for started and all the other guys who recommend all those companies. May be I am not so articulate pardon me my head sometimes need to make a translation effort from my mother language.
The case is that I am in the same situation as NFE with this differences.
*I have already 6mo experience driving a refer located in Fontana CA, drove all the states.
*I wish to drive H/W but mine is some steps behind driving, she's going to make her writing test for a class C driver's license this thursday (wish her luck). So my expectation is to drive solo at the moment or only if I find someone whit I can drive with. Or I do not know if the companies you guys mentioned (like USX) will find me a partner.
Thank you all thank you HUNTER your a nice man compadre!!!

 

I forgot to ask if you casually have the web site of the companies you mentioned? thanks two tons dude

 

We follow them too. You can learn SO much from them. I know I have. They truly are nice people and are also the reason we made the jump into OTR. Anne was brave. She went through her training with a male trainer and I admire her for that. My husband and I opted to train together rather than separately.
