Dollar General out of Fulton MO

Anyone on this account ?

What is the home time, and yard like? I'm training in scottsville,ky

 

Too little too late.

I hate being here. I really do.
Long story short. If you live south of MO (Im in Memphis TN) Don't plan on being routed remotely close to home on your home loads.The closest they have gotten me to home is 5.5 hours. I drive 6 hours just to get here, which is fine. But I shouldnt have been signed on here when they cant get me close to home and i have to shut down before making it home saturday and then be a day behind because im out of hours to do my 34 on time.

If i wasnt for the 650 tuition reimbursement id leave honestly.

 

Should probably delete that post. After a few qualcomm messages asking why im not getting routed close to home, and talking with safety(dont know if he relayed the message) but ive been getting close to home. Usually less than 2 hours after my last unload.


Youll be home with no problem. I live in Memphis,TN. So i don't see why you would have issue, theres plenty of stores in MO that are all coming from that DC so thats not something id stress about.

As far as the money , it depends on your efforts, the loads from your FM,the readiness of the store, and the quality of the parking lot you'll be unloading in. a thousand piece delivery at store A and B might take 2 hours to complete. But you get to bum #### ville with a crap parking lot and suddenly you realize you've been there for 3 hours. And of course the weather affects you, or atleast me.

Anyhow here are some of my numbers. Keep in mind. Some weeks are bad some are ok.Im listing gross numbers because of state differences. Im not claiming any dependents for some dumb reason.

Gross Earnings
$884 .50
1718 miles

$498.40
880 miles(i requested sim training in omaha, only did 2 loads this week)

$1851.11
3018 miles(I didnt submit my paperwork for the week, so this is 2 weeks gross)

$1120.72
1591 Don't know wtf i did to get this much a week but i think there were a lot of stops

$863.54
1138 miles

$1537.67
2154miles (2 weeks, i have habit of waiting to submit paperwork and then forgetting)



The thing that sucks about this account is that theres more variables than there should be that affects your money. Get to a store and they dont want you to unload because its 2 hours from closing, but you'll only take 90 minutes at the most? Tough ####. No uboats and they dont have empties? tough ####. Rolltainer filled with Libbys canned food or water? tough ####.


Im gonna stick this out for my family, and them go to flat bed.

 

Already off the account. Not worth the risk or low pay. Doing home daily account making a whole lot less. But in two months I'll have 6 months solo. Will be looking for someone else to take me on. There's a flatbed company that told me to call em back at 6 already
