gotta have a yr exp have been for a FEW yrs now. they are slowly implementing USX's policies around here. we still are a seperate Co. though, only major descisions are made by USX.
i run out of the SE but i spend ALOT of time up here. i am currently in a motel in maybrook on 84. because there are 30 trucks in this area looking for a load. doesn't happen all the time though. i dont know about the planners/dispatchers up here, but if i am in the SE around hometime they will USUALLY bend over backwards to get me home
Youre in muskogee so in a decent spot for them. Have a lot going on in Texas. Hope you like rolling around with a 57 footer though. Dont believe the hype about home time, they try to keep you out 3 weeks at a time but advertise home weekly. Dont take the per diem its a ripoff. The dispatchers have delt with are sub-par IMHO. Over all its ok but not the greatest. Also, they are part of USExpress.
thanks for the info. I was sure the hometime was bull, it always is. these companies all say the same thing and you know they want the wheels rolln and thats ok with me because if you aint rollin you ain't makin money. do you know if there regional stuff is correct or are they 48 or nothing?
The info on reagional is correct but dont be surprized if you end up outside of your region for a lil bit. I havent had any problems with that aspect of it so far. As with all trucking though youre expected to go where the freight is taking you. I can say that they have tried to keep me in region though. As far as I can tell there is no straight 48 states.
great I dont mind most areas, but can't stand north east. I just get nervous with new york and those areas. thanks
