JBS Carriers Greeley Colorado

I live in florida but am out of the greeley terminal and run all 48 but told the dm I much prefer east coast from texas north and east an told her i really dident need to go west of the rockies as they had enough drivers that lived out there to handle it.she said that shouldent be a problem as most dont like the east.so far everything is good.left colorado then to nebraska then indian then michigan to ohio back to iowa then alabama to georgia back to florida.

 

I couldent tell ya about the greenbay terminal i have talked to a few of there drivers but not about anything in particular but im happy with the way things have been so far this orlando delivery on the 21st will give me rite at 4200 for the week

First day first thing is ergo. Lasts about an hour or so. They will measure you and stretch you every which way. You will then lift and carry up to 90 lbs for about 20 minutes while having your heart rate and blood pressure checked often. If your heart rate is too high you can rest a bit to bring it down. Next is pee test and cdl physical. Driving test is last. Much like a cdl driving test. Make sure you stop behind that first stop sign!! But it is ok if you mess up a bit. Get through this and you are in! Just paperwork and learning the Qualcom and such the next two days. Hope this helps...

 

Hey Rick! Great to get an update from you. Anne and I just got our truck 3 days ago.

 

NoCoCraig, great for the 2 of you. is it a automatic or 10=13 spd? Just wondering if Anne remembers how to shift. lol. Tell Anne down for low and up for the high gears. Do you have the dogs with you ?

 

Hey everyone. My baby is back on the road. I will keep you all updated on what he is doing and how he is being treated. I was happy when we found the new thread. I had gotten a warning for insulting someone by calling them a crybaby. Well I will be sure not to do that again. Did'nt know that was going to hurt someones feelings that bad. LOL. Well you all stay safe out there. An angel is watching over you.

 

LOL, we got a brand new (like 358 miles on the odometer new) 2012 Freightliner Cascadia with a 10 speed. She drove us today and did great but I will say your name came up in the conversation a couple of times. We will pick up the dog, we are only taking one, when we get home. We have not put in a time off request yet. Will probably do that tomorrow and it will take one to two weeks to route us home. On our way from Southern Georgia to Chicago IL.

(should add for others that I work for a different company)
