Going to orientatiin in the morning hope its the rite move im quiting a goid local job bringing home about 800 a week. In hopes to di better anybody have any reason why i wouldn't
Brian is the safety guy who does orientation. LISTEN to everything he has to say. A world of KNOWLEDGE! I had to deadhead back to Birmingham for my securement equipment then back to Atlanta to pickup my load. It ran me right thru the house and delivers 3 hrs away on monday morning. My FM is DeMarco. He is a pretty cool and laid back guy. Very helpful if you ask him questions.
i booked my first load on my own. all i did was look on crst loadboard, find what i wanted, then called the agent for that load. plan being in orientation till thursday more then likely.
Wow another crazy week I ended up in South Dakota thursday I assumed that I would be stuck. Got a call a few hours after getting empty a driver had canceled on a load going to indiana . That was pure luck but I am setting good for the morning looking for another six load week . Getting to take 34@ the house instead of a truckstop . Mcoldwell I have $1000.00 a week in my business plan for deductions its in that ballpark. I assume that I am a grand in the hole starting out everyweek and run like it. I have talked to several drivers the ones who complain are being picky and sitting too much . I will run two loads in one day while they sit and wait on a big money load . Last week I was at the Pilot at Poontoon Beach IL on Monday talked to a driver waiting on a big paying load to NY Iwas there again picking up load number 3 on Wensday guess who was still there?
WHY would you do that? $800 a week take home vs working in a rental truck for an unknown income! Extremely poor choice imho.
