JCT

BRAVO!!!! VERY WELL SAID!

I have been here since the 6th of JUly, and absolutley LOVE it. As with any company, you will have your dislikes, but it sure seems as if the are VERY few and far between, and nothing to really even worry about, or remember. A GREAT company, and GREAT people who are willing to do whatever it takes to help out. My very first week they found out I am a team player by asking me to repower not only 1 but 2 seperate loads to help other drivers get home. No problems. I may have missed out on a few miles, but in the long run, it will benifit me as long as I am willing to help them. Remember to ALWAYS stay on the good side of your dispatcher! If they ask you to do it...do it! If they ask you why...explain it to them with courtesy, not with an attitude.

You folks who wonder "why me", need to look at yourself and not JCT. It is not a "requirement" on their part to give you a job! Funny thing is though, everyone who wants to put down the company, keeps trying to get on here! If you want to bad mouth them, go somewhere else! You wouldn't like it here anyway. Most of the drivers here have a positive attitude, so you would be left out in the field with no one but yourself to talk to! No one wants to listen to you b$$$h and complain!

 

All these bashers just jealous they aren't qualified to work for a GREAT company so they start a rant hoping they can get some attention from someone showing pity for them. Like littleprincess. I've read the post over and over and still got the hint that because JCT didn't hire her it must be a bad company so she starts some misinfo about lawsuits and comparing us to Stevens Transport which she calls Stevens Trucking which is a household moving carrier. O well glad to here most of yall are doing great out there. Vulcan, herkyboy, etc.

As far as the repowering to help others or the comp out. I always think do to others what u want done to you. If u start denying to help just cuz u don't want it then don't complain when no one wants to repower you. Keep up the good work herkyboy.

 

I don't want to bring up negative things, but did anyone ever find out why the 4 guys were sent home a few weeks ago? It concerns me a little. I hate to quit my job, that I don't hate, and get sent home from a job that I'm trying to better myself at for no reason.

I wonder if your evening free time is monitored? Not that I would care, a big night to me is when I'm at home and get to watch TLC. : )

 

Wow.. I think I am the only person to post on ehre that did not get a reply saying welcome to the family....

 

From what I heard it was them failing the drug test and the driving test. When you do the turns make sure you get in the correct lane. Also when you pull out make sure there are absolutely no cars around. Patience is the answer here. Don't worry about what others think about waiting too long.

What evening time off you talking about? You mean when u stop for ur ten hour break. If that's it then no they don't monitor u.

We're sorry. Might have missed it. Welcome to the JCT family. When do u start?

 

alan... orientation is set for oct. 12th... i am hoping to get in sooner.

 

Hmm I haven't heard anyone going in for aug or sept. Wonder if they are slowing down the hiring. I know they were short on trks the past few weeks so they were pushed to giving out new trks.

 

i currently drive a 2008volvo 730... it has the cummins isx450 in her. i would like to try and get a prostar if possible

 

They've got no storage space in them. But I hear some are getting good fuel mileage outta them too.

 

I was referring to orientation when I talked about the evening free time.

But you get nights off too?? How about weekends?? LOL

I'm not worried about the driving part, I do it everyday. The patience part is a different story. I will pretend for 4 days ; )
The shifting? Well I've been in an auto shift for the last year and 1/2, hope it doesn't kick my butt.
