Do Not Drive For Usa Truck

spend most of my time with marten trans.. till they went reginal. took a year off and went back to marten..got tired of reginal crap and usa told me they still run otr.. so i signed up and it was great in the beginning...but it just blows now.. seriously thinking going the o/o route..i want more controll of where i go etc...

 

Keep dreaming...........and if your begging for a break, it will be a long year for you. Remember the 3 magic letters.....not USA...........DOT

 

Just got the great news .. USA TRUCK is now a regional company.. WTF

 

Kind of defeats the name USA. I worked for Westside when they made the move to regional. Talk about a mess and miles dropping. All I can say is....

Run Forest, Run!

 

i'm o/o when wking my co. yd is in atl. have spoken with many usa drivers that use our yd. have even given a few food money because usa has screwed them out of pay. I would not ever suggest someone pull for that co.

 

That is not 100% accurate now is it? They are realigning drivers to regional lanes but are calling drivers and asking them if they want to be regional or otr. It's no big deal really, with intermodals making a push like they are, kinda seems like the trend in the industry.

Kinda over sensationalizing something for print, no?

 

No when a company splits and goes regional it don't matter if your otr or regional, you're find yourself doing regional work. Start paying attention to your runs your be on a loop. and forget 1000 mile runs. If I'm wrong I'll say so here... So keys wait a few weeks and see..

 

I am begining to see that they just have no freight.

If you need to get to a terminal, it is almost impossible for them to get you a load going near one.

You tell them you need to get to a terminal, and you are in the middle of PA. You need to get to OH, and they send you up to new england.
They don't have enough loads to send you where you need to go.

 

Hello USA Truck

Hi this ACME WIDGETS in Penn , have a load to New England

Sorry NO can do , our driver needs to go to OHIO

 

I'm just saying, if they had more loads, they could find another company that needs widgets in ohio.

But these shippers are leaving because they get no service from USA.
I heard one company was trying to call usa all day to get more MT trailers sent over. But he could not get a hold of anyone.

he finally asked a usa driver for help.

you can't do that to your customers.

do that to us, but not your customers.
