    Northern Indiana.
    I'm in a good spot for LTL.
    Old dominion, USF Holland, Saia, ABF, and I think YRC all have terminals in my town as well as UPS but you know how that goes.

    So much this! Driver, you won't know what hit you if you go to Coke and you been riding around and driving teams without doing manual labor for the past 6-months you'll wish you never came to Coke, especially as a driver merchandiser.

    Yrc is having finiancial/union trouble. The rest are good. Have you applied to any of them?
    I wish I would have taken a job as a sorter at ups in high school. In hindsight, in would be doing pretty good now

    OD has my resume.
    I talked to Holland and all they had was part-time on call for $17/hour. About 20 hours a week. I know that's probably how you get a foot in the door but I passed it up.

    That's what I'm hearing. I'm really thankful for this site in situations like this. I think I'd prefer to ease back into physical activities with an open deck far far away from a retail environment lol

    I passed on a similar offer from yrc. They wanted me on call 24/7/365 and would have to be on duty within 2 hours of a call. I said no thanks, the guy laughed at me
