Maverick Transportation

No problem, daytona and I are thinking what the heck???

 

I am asking about us div. in little rock just a little confusion there sorry but your probably right about bringin a laptop. Do you know if they pay for gas if you want to drive there? So how are you liking it?

 

just to say thanks to people like notarps and daytona and everyone for all the help we all really appreciate it alot.

 

when did maverick quit giving cdl classes in the flat bed division they say you need to have 1 before you come to drive.

 

I do not believe that they reimburse you for your fuel if you drive there but you might ask the recruiter they could give you a better answer.I know in my class the guy who drove his van there was upset because maverick expected him to drive the other trainees up to Newport and they where not reimbursing him.

About the training program .I am sure just like everyone else in this industry maverick is suffering through the high price of fuel .Combine that with the fact that a lot of people before you took mavericks training then failed to honor their commitment for that training and the fact that winter is a slow time of year for flat-bedders probably made maverick decide to pull the plug on training drivers for now.But I would suspect that come spring when freight picks up and if fuel balances out they would resume their training program.Of course this all a guess on my part but I think that is what is going on.Later

 

I doubt they would reimburs but I thought I would ask. So hows life on the road I was reading your thread of when you went through school and orientation and when you started driving that was a great idea and sure was informational. So the gps has been a big help I thought about getting the co pilot for truckers it seems good I just dont like the idea of running it from a laptop.

 

I was just wondering why, when I applied and was excepted they still had the training but now they are not going to do it after the first of the year. just need to get the road test done. thanks

 

The recruiter told me it was because The long wait was getting out of hand, but I'm sure it was everything u said also that factored into it.

 

Winterhawk yo ushould see if your state has the workforce investment act. Thats what I used to go to school they paid me 10 a day to go and are gonna give me $500 bucks in gas cards it is the best thing that could have happened and they like to get people for truck driving.

 

notarps where did you get your 500 ltd cb from. Do the trucks already have antennas on them. Do you know any drivers up here in Indiana.
Thanks
