    Koch has orientation every monday and thursday. Approximately 4 days depending how fast it takes to get employment verification done. My truck was at the yard in minnesota. Dispatcher is cool with best buy out of dinuba.

    Im based out of best buy dedicated in dinuba, ca. Not sure how otr, or other accounts are treating the drivers. So far its not too bad.

    I havent ran into any problems like that yet. Only been here for about a month so who knows what can happen in the future. Alot of these best buy loads from california cover the western states so that means more miles.

    Well that all went downhill fairly quick. My miles have dropped drastically. I talked to other drivers on this account and say the same thing about no miles.

    I would almost think it would have picked up being a Best Buy account because of the Christmas season? Mabye everyone just buys mostly on-line....I just saw Koch is looking for drivers for a dedicated account hauling Atv's here in Wisconsin. Was thinking about doing some research, however I do want to relocate out west eventually...Hope things picked up for you!

    The first two weeks were great about 2500 miles week. Then all of a sudden No loads were coming out. Im still getting $750 a week in sign on bonus so that helps. Once sign on bonus money runs out i may jump ship.
