How soon after you applied were you attending orientation?

It happens. Be patient. Trucking is a marathon, not a sprint.
I'm always here if you have questions.

 

I'm on home time right now. I'm coming out in the morning. I don't have a load yet. It doesn't matter to me where they send me. Last month I made 3 coast to coast runs. Back to back to back.
For miles, work on the relationship with your dispatch.
Every dog will eat a bone, if its thrown to him. You just gotta have your dispatch throw you bones. A good relationship will fix that.
Don't make the mistake in thinking, "I'll go in the office and bounce my dispatcher off the walls."
I promise that won't work at all. That's when new drivers try that, it doesn't work, so they leave looking for greener pastures.
Remember, this is a big boy company. You can't TELL them you can run. You have to SHOW them you can run. If your late for appointments, and it was possible to maker the appointment, then you've hurt yourself. Give it time. Your new to the company, AND the industry.
Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast.
