sometimes it just is not enough, its hard to earn a living at 1800 miles a week at .30/mile. -
I know they treat company drivers pretty bad. I'm yet to read about owner operator experience except for one who makes $1000 a week. That is terrible for someone taking the o/o risk. O/Os need to make 2k plus weekly or the end will be very near and one breakdown away.
How is USA Truck for owner ops??? -

Thank you very much for a straight answer. So many times these forums get off track and never point blank answer much.
I haven't heard much bad about o/o with USA. I know they have 3 FMs for o/o with each having about 50 drivers. Anyone knowing more about USA o/o please share your thoughts... -

I'm trying to chalk my negative experience up to having a bad trainer. I went out with a trainer for almost 3 weeks before I had a family emergency and had to go home. During the 3 weeks, my trainer showed me absolutely nothing. I take that back, I learned how to text and talk on the phone while driving and swerve the truck in and out of lanes while doing so. I also learned how to ride 2 inches from the bumper of the vehicle in front of us. Oh yeah, and my personal favorite, how to fraudulently complete your log books. Too bad I didn't learn anything that could actually benefit me on the job.
My only hope is that, since I only have 11 days of training left, the next trainer I get is better. I'm trying to reserve my final verdict until then. But since there are over 30 people currently waiting for a trainer, I don't know how long I am willing to wait for one since this time around I'm not receiving waiting pay (my own fault, I know). -
