East-West Exp Villa Rica Ga

I know two couples that worked there. They did great about (150-160k) both left to go work at odfl (200-220k) but I don’t think you gave them enough time.

 

If you have to destress inside a plus large car... sitting around so much... on 2K over 3 weeks as a company driver... then you have problems I would think. //Teasing...

You aint begun to run yet I don't think. Stay in there a little longer, and get used to the flow.

Some companies are the opposite, whipping drivers to run illegally. You should be thankful that you are lucky enough to be considered the elite slugboss of the Geritol Fleet.

//TEASE...

This is not a attack, it's a teasing post. Most people generally have some form of savings put aside against slow times in trucking. I bet you when you come out of winter and CA starts cranking up or has that BIG ONE that requires a million trucks yesterday to rebuild everything you will have a bunch of miles.

So what if it's chaos in dispatch and payroll etc etc etc.

Here is what I do.

Write in a giant legal size journal with lined paper, each load you picked up, hauled to with all the proper information pertaining to that load. Especially trip numbers and other information with which they pay you.

Use a green magic marker to check off your load in that book that is PAID. Once a week go into the land of chaos and collar a driver manager big enough to write you a comcheck for the UNPAID loads delivered. Bring that book with you, gospel chapter and verse to present as evidence of your payroll claim.

Check off those loads as you cash that comcheck. Write that comcheck information down so taht if they try to charge you for it you will detect it and challenge it.

Then... step two.

Get into the drivers room of that chaos building, grab several inches in company issued forms. That way you have all the material you need to STAY in that truck FAR AWAY across the USA anywhere for 6 months. (Don't forget the trip pack courier envelops. 10 per week you intend to stay out.)

STep three, find a way to destress inside those plush velvet large car. Install a stripper pole or something between the cab and sleeper. //snarky.
