Uniforms aren’t a real big deal and seniority will come in time, but as for the micromanagement companies vary on that. Saia and XPO are the two worst I can think of that, while Estes, R&L and A. Duie Pyle seem to be the easier places to work.

Then I was gonna provide a rebuttal to each of your points one by one, which isn't difficult at all.
But after rereading your post several times I have to instead ask: are you trolling us?mickeyrat, TankerP, De Trucker and 4 others Thank this. -
Well, some adVANtages of OTR, at least with my experiences are:
1) You can pretty much set your own schedule----run when you want, sleep when you want. This is HUGE. Again, my experiences.
2) Pretty much easy interstate, or highway cruising most of the time.
3) You're really not touching any freight generally. You're only opening and closing the doors.
4) Longer wheelbase tandem OTR tractor MIGHT cruise better/more comfortably on the highway than a short wheelbase single axle LTL tractor. Debatable.
Much like LTL linehaul, it's pretty much a show up and get paid kind of deal. No real "work."
i have never had an OTR company KMA. If anything some of the food companies i worked for did, to a small extent. But that's another (difficult) topic.......Last edited: Aug 19, 2019

Another reason is that one time you requested another driver provide scans of paper stubs instead of an online pay statement. I don't even have paper stubs. I'm sure I could get them, but I'm not gonna bother with all of that. You'll just have to trust me that I'm at about $100 shy of $60k for the year on an easy linehaul bid with no dock work. Also, whenever I get out of my truck women flock toward me and drivers ask me to autograph their log books--all because of my uniform!hotrod1653, JadeLove, TankerP and 7 others Thank this. -
