    My first day is going to be March 27th. 3AM shift. Told me that I would be in the next truck driver training class which will likely be June/July. Biggest need right now here is for P&D drivers. I feel grateful to have my foot in the door.
     
    KMB Thanks this.

    That shift should get you some decent hours.

    At our terminal they're currently needing/wanting P&D drivers also.

    I am grateful for working here. Talked to another Linehaul driver who is very happy working at OD.

    Cool. Yea, I think that as LTL companies go OD is about as good as it gets.
     
    KMB Thanks this.

    Does OD ever hire straight off the street for linehaul?

    Yes, they will. But they do hire from within (p&d guys that want to go line, transfers) before they hire of the street. Many of our guys at my yard started line from day 1.
     
    Need4Speed Thanks this.

    I was hired off the street. Depends on your area. As of now, my terminal is only hiring from within (the dock). Then, after 1 year they are given a choice to go P&D or linehaul. Glad I got in when I did to be able to go straight to linehaul and gain seniority from day one.
