    Yes you are right .They have a dedicated account with Walmart in NY State and they are telling the drivers who apply that same song and if asked why are you keeping me from bettering myself if I want to go to another company that you might haul for you are told tuff .Is our policy and I don't care if you want to better yourself.
    My opinion is they are into more than 1 account ,so what they are saying is they will stop you from working in the industry.

    I'd guess that it's pretty easy, it most likely depends on where you are & where the dedicated account is located. Most drivers just start with the dedicated account if there's one in the area & they need drivers.

    I have to say, I quit Crete to go with these guys and what a big mistake that was! The only reason I did it was to get a local job to be home with the family daily and one day on the weekend. It seems to me that everything they tell you at the hotel seminar is a load of BS. Dedicated runs? Yeah right, they overfill all the driver spots and run you on a different store every night. It's like they are pitting driver against driver and see who will take the most #### and not quit.
    900 to 1,000 a week? I have not seen it in the 6 weeks that I have ben there?
    Home one day on the weekend?
    The last 2 weekends I worked and they told me that everyone cannot get off when they want to.
    If you really need a job then go for it but I like to hold on to my license for a while. It seems that they do not care about the driver at all,just into filling seats. BTW- I am talking about their Nazareth,PA terminal.
