Congrats! I knew about my second week on my trainers truck that I eventually wanted to lease. I would spend hours thinking about numbers, crunching them, asking my trainer questions. You should've seen my list of crap to ask about when I finally talked to owner op when I upgraded lol. They were like, woah woah, pump the brakes you still got a ways to go, haha.
Then PSU's truck became available. Lease terms #### near matched my schooling contract (which I still have to fulfill). Like you, the right deal came along and I decided to take the plunge. I don't want to say "best of luck" to you, like we are doomed for failure or something, so I'll just say "stay safe out there driver!"
Yes, we get paid to do our own washouts. I'm not sure what qualifies as one though. Sweeping out a trailer? Is that worth a washout payment? Not saying you did that, just generally curious. To get paid you need to turn in a PROPERLY filled out driver washout receipt. Talk to your payroll manager to find out exactly what she needs. My company payroll manager told me that many of us don't get paid because we don't fill out the receipt PROPERLY. Just a heads up.
Congrats! Have you already talked to your trainer on the phone? Most guys in my class heard from their trainers right away. You should be just fine out there!

There's local work in Pasco now, Central has about 40 guys hauling day cabs and belly dump trucks for McCain. It's potatoes. From what I hear, there's also positions hauling the finished product from the plants to the cold storages. Don't know if there's anyone local loading trailers to drop in our new Pasco yard.
You work 6 days a week, pay is I think $120-$175 a day, and they'll put you in a hotel room for 2 weeks for you to relocate. There's also a $1500 bonus, paid out $150 a week as long as you stay there. I don't know how long you have to be driving to qualify, or if you can just hire on specifically for that if you have experience. I also don't know if the rate is per hour, or per load. I've asked around, but everyone I ask doesn't seem to know.Lady K Thanks this. -
Hopefully someone can shine some light on this for me. If not I'll just get in touch with safety when the office opens.
Can you go to line 5, off duty driving during a 34 hour reset? At first I figured no, but then wondered if your off duty it shouldn't ruin your 34.

Arkansas Frost and Lady K Thank this.

my a-hole safety guy said I line 5ed for 5 min while under dispatch during a 34. Only problem is this line 5 happened at 0230, my fat tail was asleep! He checked the GPS and saw that the truck never moved and still said it was unauthorized line 5 and changed it to line 3 totally screwing up my restart. This is something that I believe should be illegal, after a log is signed or approved if it gets edited or changed its tampering with a fed document. We will get nailed by the dot for doing this but according to safety they can change whatever they see fit.. This is BS!!
