    If you couldn't get hired by USA Truck, swift, Pam and a cple others i see. you got bigger problems. USA would hire a freakin chimpanzee if they thought they could get away with it. They are the easiest company to get into in the industry. With probably the highest turn over rate also. They put out 100 new trainees a week from orientation and lose 60 to 75 drivers a week every single week.

    I don't want to be rude but is it safe to assume/guess that you are fully aware of their safety issues and the order from the FMCSA against JBS Carriers of Greely.

    Yes sir..... big 'ole square looking seat beat usually anchored to the bunk floor and clipped to the roof of the opening.

    My friends rookie fell asleep and laid the tank over in the median........ she slid awhile and the tank caught the bridge pillar. Truck stopped, friend didn't, rookie was fine.

    Ugh !!

    Read for yourself here.

    That's JBS' disasterous record and with that they are being forced to use EOBR's. Why would you as a professional driver subject yourself to the kind of abuse by scale and leo personel that you are likely to inherit by working for such a carrier?

    I just got hired on at USA today. If a chimp can get a job here, the 6 they let go from the class must be real low on the list. That includes two who had a cdls for many years. They don't pay good but they are a beginners company.
