<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lonelyguy, post: 4275203, member: 153302&quot;]and BTW, I&#039;m NOT Dinkytruckerdoo. Nice of you to share that info of your paystub(it didn&#039;t work anyways....it&#039;s not very smart to share personal info on the internet, I&#039;m sure someone from a third world country would love that info you posted that didn&#039;t go through)....but look.....it&#039;s a known fact, you are a favorite/golden child. Sdaniel said making a 4 figure check at EPES is really easy to do.....but.....look at all previous employees that were here, if you really read this whole thread. Teqntex didn&#039;t get but 1800 miles a week, flying got good miles but was forced to stay out and no regular home time. Pops, he was in the same boat I&#039;m in here....NO MILES! I don&#039;t whine and complain....I do my job and what is told/asked of me and all I get is 200 miles a day....these past 2 runs have been the longest I&#039;ve had since JUNE....yes, JUNE! Have you been to the yard, in Greensboro lately? Oh I stayed there last night. Got there around 0130 and lot was full of empty trucks. Had to go see Nate about a spare key this morning for my new truck and asked what was up with all the trucks, it&#039;s Thursday morning. He said, about a quarter of them are new, waiting to be issued. 2 of them are lease/,o/o, and the rest have been turned in by drivers who&#039;ve left.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, like I said, EPES is a great trainer company, but I&#039;m NOT seeing how all these people are making money and I&#039;m not! That&#039;s why I quit. I went next door and that place is a total NIGHTMARE beyond belief. Not only do they have a really high driver turnover, shucks, even the OFFICE has a high turnover rate! lol But, I need to make what little money I make, right now, to survive....but by next year I&#039;m done, with trucking completely. I really LOVE trucking but, as they say, sometimes you find a job you love and it just doesn&#039;t either a) work out or b) not enough money to even deal with it. My situation in 3 years has been b! I don&#039;t think my situation is gonna change. I know how trucking is......it&#039;ll get better, I&#039;m sure, for the next few weeks, but then it&#039;ll be right back to 1600-1800 mile weeks. PLUS, why should they pay me 42 cpm for 2600, when they can get a new trainee(right off a trainer truck making 32/34 cpm) to do the same amount of miles and pay them less money? That&#039;s the trucking business for you(and more of a profit for the company), that&#039;s reality of being with a trainer company. Sorry to burst your bubble on the reality of trucking....but that&#039;s just how it is, in the real world of trucking.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
