Don't work for Britton they're not what they say

No, I clarified that he is getting .53 in 6 months and what it is until then. He was offered .53. But whatever if someone is totally honest and spells it all out because they have a keyboard rather then their phone to type on than all credibility is gone. Whatever. You can feel that way if you like. But curious, someone with no credibility? Why bother to answer that question. You people can be so uptight sometimes. Relax!

He can go any speed limit so if he is going 70 miles per hour how does that work out? How, if that is the case was he ever able to do 3500 at 65 mph when he gets to his drop and has to wait 3 hours and then another 2-3 at the next pick up. I don't claim to know how to calculate that out but it has to be possible if he has been able to do 3500 in his current situation. He tells me about getting some hours back after so many. I don't pay that much attention to that because I don't really need to. I just listen while he talks it through.

 

Thanks for your comments. I hear what you are saying. It's not a perfect job for everyone. Not everyone wants a small company or to do that many miles. I'm not saying he will get that many miles every week. They are available. Yes, I was harsh with Britton. That's probably because I am also upset. We really like Britton. But, there have been some lies. The biggest when he was hired in two things he was told. One, we can't get you home as often as all our guys because of where you live but we can get you home every three weeks. Two, We will start you off at .xx per mile and you'll get an increase in a year. Well, they are having a hard time getting him home. He is at the top of his rate now. There is nowhere to go money wise. I am also upset because his resume isn't a toy. Nor is his time and experience. It reflects him in a big way and had we been given the full truth we may have chosen one of the other 3 offers at the time. At least is we had been told the truth I and he wouldn't be upset now on top of the other things going on. The biggest of which, well, actually I'm not sure, I think they both weigh. Once again he won't be home when he was told he will, and the miles and sitting around and paychecks are not cutting it. And, you have to understand. He has not been demanding or crappy with them at all. He isn't like that. He is very well liked. He got a call from some head guy today, Natalie was out. He asked him to think about it and to stay.

The company that he is entertaining an offer with has not given him any big pie in the sky promises or tried to sugar coat anything. The company also advertised for about 2 days. They only have 7 trucks and this one is brand new, purchased to add another driver. Again, neither of us really want him to leave. But at this point, we don't' see a reason to stay.

 

He doesn't have to drive that many. He can do the miles that he wants. Again, you people are really narrow-minded, don't read what is said or just like to be dicks.

 

One last time. The company is not hiring too many drivers. They are a small company. Also, they are less than a mile up the street in a very rural city. That helps. He does not have to drive 4000 miles a week. They are there if he can an wants to. The owner of the company is driving. He has not been promised the moon. He's only been promised that he won't be micromanaged and that the miles are there if he wants them. And, as far as a young driver. He has 30 months current experience but he has 4 years on top of that. So, he isn't really that green. Granted he hasn't been driving for 20 years either but he has been running heavy equipment, everything from a MI-JACK GANTRY CRANE OPERATOR to sandblasting, lots of government and industrial work. He's a hard worker, he's smart, respectful and very safe. He's also in his 50's so again, not a young kid. For him to make 90-100k is what we were shooting for. In a year or two, the plan is to have his own truck and continue working there. With the new tax laws, it's the only thing to do.
