Magnum ltd - fargo, nd

So I just got off the phone with Tony, it would seem 1 of my previous employers isn't verifying my employment, so I'll have 2 weeks of training he said. So I'm pushing my orientation back to january 7th so that I can make sure I have enough money saved to cover bills and any expenses during training. I do still intend to switch to Magnum bc from what I can tell is an overall great company. Great pay package good benefits and a friendly work environment. I talked to a Magnum driver today looked around in his truck. And MAN ARE THEY NICE!!!! it even had Android Auto built into the dashboard. So much coolness. Anyways I look forward to working with you all and seeing you out on the road.

Good luck! All depends how my medical appointments go but I may have to push things back to 7 Jan also. You'll be amazed at how much easier paperwork is here! Only receipts are pretty much lumper and repairs. BTW, riding with a trainer can be a very good thing! You'll learn the Magnum way right from the start...no guessing or asking a million questions after orientation. And the half a million questions you'll have will be gladly answered by anyone here or on the mentors/trainers list you'll get from Mark. He also runs the absolute best hazmat class I've been through!

 

Anyone on the road over Thanksgiving and going through Clarksville TN, if you want to stop at any of the truckstops at Oak Grove KY, let me know and I'll come get you for eats, shopping, whatever. I'm 5 miles away. No sense staying in the truck unless you want to!

 

I would definitely hit you up, but it looks like they got me headed to la county ca from Green Bay WI.

As far as hazmat Tony said they don't require it and I am trying to get it but it requires Alot of appointments in person. I have to pay $185 to get fingerprinted at a special place then it takes 6-8 weeks according to the DMV to get a background check completed and then I have to go to an NCDmv and take the written test and pay the fee. I was thinking of doing the twice card and hazmat at same time.i have the tanker and triples endorsmendor already



And as to the training, yeah it'll probably be a positive thing. Learning a new system can be difficult sometimes. Getting a jump on how ur company operates and some tips and tricks from a trainer won't hurt. So I'm actually rather excited to switch over to Magnum. I'll keep y'all updated.

 

You can get your fingerprints taken at the petro in Rochelle. They will reimburse you for this.

 

Thanks man that's good to know. I think I'll wait tho until I get hired on and finish training.
I'm currently in Green Bay WI if anyone else is that's cool. I was wondering if Magnum does holiday pay? Or paid vacation? Also side note I'm a forgetful person so I Kno I asked this before probably but do their trucks have a flat screen TV mount? Or a satellite radio?

 

Vacation yes
Holiday no

 

Tv mount yes
XM radio is built into the trucks. You Pay for your own subscription.

 

Thanks guys very helpful,
I am extremely excited to start in January and can't wait to get to orientation.
Hopefully the next month rolls by fast! I plan on going home for Xmas with my current carrier then officially quitting on the 2nd of January. This was I minimze downtime between jobs! Of course I'll be giving my 2 week notice be be x here at schugel looking forward to seeing you all.
