    well folks i (worked) for em fer 2 months and i just got accepted by someone else.
    all i can say is they will hire anybody no matter what.
    there is some good to that but not enough. i personally am glad to be gone from there while i still got a license too work with. no more running the road in a truck where the cab temperature is somewhere in the neighborhood of 200 degrees f.
    i had a 60 something year old man put with me and it nearly killed him i had to hose him down with water to keep him alive or from having a heatstroke after only 4 1/2 hours in my pass. seat and those morones said well thats not your problem keep driving. someone tell me whose problem that is huh. thank GOD above that i dont have to drive the crockpot no more oh by the way you dont order IFTA stickers ya go down with yer fuel purchase records and trip records and they figure out which states you owe taxes in then ya write the check and they hand you your IFTA's.
    i say this because ive purchased them in the past and not one of gunthers company trucks has an up to date IFTA on it

    By the way Im sweetgerts husband and i made the last post in her name.they do NOT run all 48 there are actually 5 brothers and they each do their own thing for a bussiness ie busses for 1 trash trucks another and so on.
    and number 91 truck the 1995 volvo is a short nose but not a cabover it does have a small dog box in the cab and 2 out of 3 latches are busted .so the engine heat from the engine compartment comes into the cab ie 200 degrees can cause severe health issues. the only way i could survive in that kind of heat was too stay wet by using a water hose every hour or 2 too hose down and stay as wet as possible and also drink lots of fluids, LOTS!!and i also ran with the windows downand none of their trucks have AC that works at least the company owned trucks
