    Robz, I don't know for sure, but it would be real easy to find out... Contact Don @
    Don.Wilson@FurnitureRow.Com, he would be able to tell you real quick, he's the man to contact for all of the hiring... He can even e-mail you an application... I know that our Pete 386's do go into California...

    From what I am seeing they are treating the drivers good. If you run into a problem just let them know right away don't set on it until it blows. If you are open and upfront with them then they are open and upfront with you.

    So do you have alot of wait time and are you still getting good miles? And do they get you home when you need to. Filled application and talked to Don said i would have to have an interview because they like talking to drivers before they come on. Was wondering why? I have a clean driving record and no accidents been pulling tankers. Just wondering.

    The management of the company talks to all pre-employes. It is to get to meet you and know you from you and not your app. It is a feel from them in making sure you are a fit for the company. Nothing to worry about if you have nothing to hide which sounds like you don't. Everyone that has been hired on has gone through it. They don't grill you with questions. They just ask one main question, " tell me about you from the start". That's it getting to that is good sign of being hired so don't sweat it.

    Wait time is not much unless you don't put in you PTA. Freight is slow at times but that is a industry thing not a company. They have been getting broker loads when they can't get a load for you. Miles are doing good. 2200-3000 a week. If you can't get at less 10k a month then you are wasting you time. They have the loads to get you at less that much a month. Once all the trucks are filled they will stop hiring. They want to retain good drivers and not loss them by growing too big.

    Lol trying to type this stuff out on my iPhone and keep forgetting stuff. Home time that I had they got me home on the day I ask to start. So so far seems good on that can let you know more the next time I take home time. I have been working with them from the start on this year. They have been around for 3 years but this is the first year they are stepping out as there own trucking company. So it I kind of like it is starting off new.

    Well how long do you stay out? Any out things you can tell me would be nice. They have Transflow also right? Sorry for all the questions. Maybe you can put a good word in for me to Don.
