Driving OTR with US Xpress

Yeah me too, I'm the one hanging out in the chair in the corner.

 

Pleased to meet you too Wedge.
I was wondering what this movie was, couldn't keep up with it too well.
Coffee wasn't too bad, just a little strong.

 

That is crazy talk right there.

 

NoCoCraig it was strong enough to stand the hair up on my neck..lol!! I'm a lightweight, I have to drink the light roast stuff. Think that's what kept me up all night last night now that I think about it

 

My fiance will be attending Chattanooga State in March for his CDL training. USEXPRESS has made him an offer however, they won't take me due to my past mistakes, and we were wanting to drive teams so, what we are wanting to know about is what he, or we, should expect for income during training? We have heard stories from Covenant trainers of how the trainees starve out there. Would anyone be able to enlighten us as to if he will be able to pay our home bills and still be able to eat himself out there? We do understand that mileage is not guarantee. Any information is appreciated....thanks!

 

I believe he gets paid $49 a day during training.

Then he can expect $400 - $900 first eight weeks after training. After that I would say $600-$1,000 a week.

Are you both able to get on with another company ?

 

I got $58 a day during training but that was three years ago
