    Good lord what a fiendishly clever plot! Can I send you a CBD candle, on the house, as your reward for sharing that?

    I still have an ample supply of some of my less popular scents. Running low on the really good ones.

    I can say if you had actually made it to a terminal for orientation they might have paid you. They did me back in 2009 when I attempted going back, was approved, then 2 days into orientation was sent home with them saying I was ineligible for rehire. They did send me home with a comcheck for my time there though. And then blew me up trying to get me to come back. Kept saying I was good for re-hire, same as they did before I went back in 2009. I don't think they even do orientation that way anymore, I think its all done from home, no?

    Yeah, not your best move, to order a truckload of sauerkraut/pickle juice scent. Missed the mark with that one.

    They got me with it years ago. They offered a job on the Rite-Aid account working out of a nearby DC. The day before I was supposed to run up to E. Brunswick NJ for orientation I get a phone call saying “that position has been filled, but we’ll offer you OTR”.

    No thanks. :rolleyes:

    I got on board with a construction company instead.

    The job probably existed. But it was one job, offered to 35 different people. And multiple recruiters, trying to get their commissions.....

    How to screw J B Hunt?
    Buy 15,000 tractors and 50,000 trailers and underbid every one of their accounts.
    That will show them.
