Ethical...well, not really ethical but looking for opinions

R model Mack and a great boss? Sounds like a dream job to me!

 

And videos. Lots and lots of videos. Just hang in there. You're paid for every second of it.

 

I'd hope so. How many days did that stuff take?

 

It kinda depends on how they do it there. They might do an all-out assult that takes a full day or they may break it up and have you do some each day after your work with the trainer. My TM wants them done ASAP because he gets annoying reminder emails each day until they are finished.

Those videos keep coming at you for several weeks and then taper off, but you'll never be "done" with them. Even Mike will occasionally have to watch one (the first driver ever in the company who still works at your terminal after over 35 years).

Sorry for the late response. You're probably learning about all of this right this moment. Have fun!

 

The videos really sucked but it was doable.
I did them in about 4 hours. Surely there are more to come. Then I got fork lift certified and then came home. Not such a bad day

 

Sounds like you're in good. Dayton just received an award for best regional carrier. I chat up their drivers sometimes when I'm heading back from Missouri, and they all seem content.

 

Definitely happy to be here. Ready to get things rolling

 

Seemed like a pretty easy day. Only 6 deliveries and a ton of pickups. Trailer was full when we brought it back. Didn't encounter any tricky driving or any hard maneuvers. Definitely giving me a false sense of confidence lol, took us 11.5 hours, made some decent money.
