Coming to orientation Aug 13th...

1751...that's the one I was in from 10/11 to 4/12. Whoever got it after me in Sayreville hit the lotto because I left a bunch of stuff in it I couldn't possibly take with me.

 

Think of all the future breakdowns you won't have now!...Better to get all fixed...I have to say as much love as I have for the company, I had better maintenance experiences outside of their shops which they never hesitated for a second to get done...I would probably pull out of there when I could and if it still has problems, take it to a shop on the road and enjoy the hotel!...If I was under load, things seemed to move faster in getting it done!...

 

I am getting back into trucking after ten years off(looking hard at W.S.). I can shift a ten speed with my eyes closed; never drove a thirteen or eighteen. What transmissios do you use in orientation with W.S.

Thank You

Gotta love the Niners going into Green Bay and sticking it to them. I'm from Utah and I like Alex Smith. The Great Utes of Utah is the ONLEY COLLEGE IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD to have two no#1 draft picks for the N.F.L.and the N.B.A. in the same year. Alex smith and Andrew Bogut.

 

I enjoyed every minute of it!

 

Well, looks like I'll (hopefully) be back in a red truck soon. Due to the economy here in Socal I can't seem to get a good job, and I know trucking is fairly decent, so I'm checking if I'm eligible for re-hire at WS. I looked at other companies, but other than these starter companies, I need a year to get in and I only got 10 months last time...I'll stick with it this time as I found out the grass is NOT greener, at least here in Socal. And with WS, at least I know the company. I'll just be dreading the 10 stop furniture loads...LOL

Who's doing the orientations these days in Missoula?
And, what's the starting pay now?

Ahh, to get to drive the ghetto cruiser station wagon around Missoula again...haha

 

No LTL companies hiring down in SoCal?

 

They all want a year plus for experience. I just don't have that. I went and pulled out some of my pay stubs from WS in 2010 and I was making about what I was as a dispatcher here in Socal. So, since no dispatch jobs here, I'm looking to head back to Missoula and get in the truck again. I even looked at a reefer company that runs the I5 corridor but the recruiter (who I know already from WS ) said they have to have at least 1 year with no exceptions and I've only got the 10 months. I checked around with some other large starter companies but they are a far cry from what I know about WS already and I'll take the known bad things as I did it once and can do it again!
