    My Father-in-Law was the first American O/O for Trimac. He spent a month up in Canada getting a green card, work visa or whatever it was they had for up there.

    He tried to get me to go work for them for the longest time.

    They also have pretty good fuel discounts
    I avg 17-20 cents off the pump price at most pilots - Loves

    I have saved as much as 27 cents

    The 8% bonus is on both loaded and empty miles total revenue
    It is paid out QTRLY so the avg is bout

    3000 - 3500 for IC

    1000-1500 company

    So as an IC it's bout 10 cents additional To your miles

    I have been through Memphis twice since Jan. Both times were after west coast runs loading out of Ashland in Los Angeles. Both times I was only at the terminal long enough to grab either an empty or loaded trailer headed east. These weren't the Greensboro get home load I am used to getting from there but were pretty good loads of 800 miles or so. I have really never had any problems there but have minimal contact with them.

    I have been running pretty well. Last year was my best with the company and I am about $1200 ahead of that YTD. This week I got back to the yard with 40 minutes left on my 70 in 7 days. We are on e logs now and I squeezed as much out of them as I could all week. I ran High Point to N Chicago to High Point to Holland Mi to Cincinnati to Mauldin SC to High Point last week.

    This is a tank repair place. There is also Superior Tank repair and a few others in my area. I've seen alot of Trimac trailers at them.

    This would be a company driver position. He said it was a Nipsco account and they are the main gas and electric company for this area. Clint said it was 12 hour shifts
    12 hours off. The terminal manager will ask for volunteers for Saturdays. It all sounds good. I will meet with the terminal manager on Wed. He also stated $150.00 a run at least two runs a day maybe three once I become experienced. I am just hoping it is not seasonal. He stated it was not. Can you give me an overview of the hiring process, pay, and insurance. They seem to be very family oriented and and include the wifes in activities as well.
