    I did the orientation, saw all I needed to see, and came home....I have a problem with companies like IRT that have helped run this industry into the ground....Don't worry about what I'm doing go crawl back under your rock..

    if you don't have pride in the trucking industry the turn in your cdl and go find another field to work in, simple.
    @flatbed not everyone that works in Irt did it just to drive a PETERBILT for some the benefits outweighed the cons. For example in my case that means I stay closer to home being a local/regional driver oh and it doesn't hurt that I make a lil bit more than in the previous carrier I worked for and I was in their "national fleet" eventhough I was more in the southeast except when it came time to go home. So don't judge everyone like you are.

    well what I see here is YOU replying to a comment about IRT and drivers that choose to work there, ohh and if they are so bad why is it that there are drivers that have been there 20 + years. Also if you were not talking about irt why mention Petermobile which you don't have to be a genius to see that is a reference to their Peterbilts. Of course this is coming from a guy that has a glorified Freightliner pic as avatar.

    WOW ......ok first let's see. 32cmp paper logs run as you wish company deadhead. You any were for a load no sitting at truck stops waiting for a load.home time is easy.or .38cmp E LOGS a dispatched asking you your parked at that truck stop..then when you go to the yard you have people looking in your truck.they never get you home.your loads are less than let's say 800 miles. Then when you do get a good trip you ha e to swap trailers with somebody.because they ran out of hours. Hey man do me and everybody else a favor go home and work at wendys
