    they're constantly running an ad in my local paper. they must not be able to keep drivers. I talked to their recruiter.... she said I'd be out 2 weeks at a time, get about 1,900 miles a week. 5 days of orientation, then start driving. NO pay for tarping (even though they're probably charging the shipper $300-400.) they hold 2 CPM of your already slim pay until the end of the quarter. one cent is for "safety," the other for tarping. like I said, they don't pay for tarping. for 7 days of work, you might gross around $650 for the week. still interested?
     
    RACEFAN Thanks this.

    she must've skipped over that part with me. they've called me several times but I haven't called them back recently. I'm not interested in sitting half way across the country waiting on a load and only getting part time pay for the work that IS available.

    Me either chief rather sit at home. That $400 hold out on your ckeck for abandoning your vehicle may be sign of alot getting abandoned.

    They hold .02 mile of your pay a quarter, and then pay that back as tarp pay and safety bonus from money you have already earned, thats insane
     
    RACEFAN Thanks this.
