Mercer application still processing

Your probably OK. That's all stuff you should have handy, just send it in. I'm pretty sure that I had been told I was good to go when they asked for that stuff.

 

A suspension for a none verified med card and one for not paying tickets would be looked at differently. I wouldn't worry.

 

S o the email was a few days ago, have you sent it in yet?

 

Its never a waste of time if that's who you want to work with. Its part of their job and if they weren't interested, you wouldn't hear from them. For you, its worth a shot even you know full well you don't meet some certain qualification.

A little story. When I first started as an O/O I knew exactly where I wanted to lease on to, but I didn't meet their qualifications in any way, shape or form. I still called and talked to their recruiter/safety guy (small 60 truck O/O carrier). My truck was leased to them by the previous owner. I had to lease somewhere else to get experience, etc. I went through 2 carriers pretty quick and was getting screwed pretty hard by the 2nd one, but I kept the communication going with preferred company. I was on the phone one day with the recruiter/safety guy and he started asking questions about my pay per mile, short miles vs practical etc. Before the conversation was over, he wanted me to fill out another app (I'm assuming the original had been tossed). I reminded him that I didn't met their qualifications..his words "yeah, but we gotta get your ### out of that mess, you'll go broke!". That was the start of very good business relationship.

Find the company you want to work with. Do what you gotta do, but never, ever give up! Don't doubt yourself. They havs an ample supply of idiots that they would love to replace with a good worker. Every company does.

 

Your probably dealing with the same fool I dealt with awhile back.
He has some nick name I can't remembered. HE is very proud of himself LOL and his name.

He put me thru the rigamaru while I was applying also...asking for a million and one things.....

And then when I would give him all he asked for he would come back and say he forgot something and ask again for sht.

I finally started quizzing him about this trailer they wanted me to buy and how their system works etc. Money, freight..etc.

He had ZERO answers. Just kept babbling about how they are a great place and Im lucky I am approved etc.
But never gave me any real information about my questions.

Finally he asked me to write a letter to his saftey dept about why I took 4 months off in the summer and didn't run my truck.

I explained to him I am a grown man and made enough in the oil fields that when I came home I did what ever I wanted and thats that.
He didn't like that and hemmed and hayyed about my answer and I finally told him he is an idiot and I am not writing some note for myself explaining myself to anyone.

LOL
He said my comments were aggressive and rude in nature and that I will not be hired LOL
I once again explained to him how I do not what to work for fools like him LOL
That was the end of that HAHA

Guys was a pure idiot! Seriously. A indian over the ph from gandi land would of better helped me then this fool.


SO....to answer your question. NO...I would not assume you are hired. I would wait till your pulling their trailer with a load you got from them and then you can say your hired...

Until then, be careful....These fools will retract their word faster then a donkey retracts his junk after he did a show in mexico on a Friday night.

 

You apparently don't know that any gaps in employment have to have an explanation, all time in last ten years has to be accounted for, thats federal rules for driver qualification file. Your post clearly shows the recruiter was correct in his assessment. And they didn't WANT you to buy a trailer , you didn't have a trailer, so they would make one available. You must not realize how your own post shows what a off the wall character you have.
