    I was checking Abilene and do you know by any chance more information about dedicated account between Pittsburgh and Richmond?

    They only have a select few and those are drivers that have been here a very long time. Unfortunately, Pittsburgh isn’t one.

    So, you are saying it will be impossible to get into that account? I didn't call recruiter yet, because I am going on vacation for 2 weeks, but when I am back, I will start calling around.

    The accounts in question are handled by 20 year drivers. Two of them are Wytheville Va to Brooklyn and Jarratt Va to Edison NJ and Bethpage Long Island. They had one out of Florida where I live that I’ve been waiting on for 10 years now. I gave up and will just retire next July.

    I understand now, it's weird because it's still on their website. I will call them and see what they say about it.
    Here is the pic.

    Rule Number One...recruiters are not the most truthful people in the world.

    I know, that's why I am trying to get more information from the actual driver.

    Thank you! I already sent resume to Calex Logistics, I don't think they will reach out to me because I live too far away. My zip code is 18974.

    I am checking schneider every day for local jobs only because for weekly home time they don't have pet policy.
     
    Chinatown Thanks this.
