    No but sometimes you get lucky. I'm hoping I can get to know the lanes and work out some regional runs. But I'll do what I have to do. I have to say thanks to everyone contributing to the mercer posts, it's been extremely helpful in making this transition

    In Pittsburg you'll have about a 70% chance of being home every weekend and maybe even Throughout the week. Youngstown is a skip and a hop and they stay busy with short stuff. Also like mentioned you might be able to get on some dedicated stuff for a agent
     
    bailey937 Thanks this.

    Welcome to Mercer (provided everything works out)...always good to have people who do their research and learn about a company BEFORE coming to work. Best of luck and welcome. See you in L'ville sometime.

    $125 I think but it comes out your settlement or you can pay him cash

    $125 if you use the decal guy, they'll take it out a few weeks down the road. Or, you can use the plain jane ones they have available for free at orientation.

    Thinking about coming on board with Mercer. I was with Land Star for a while on a dedicated run. Had to cancel my lease due to a knee replacement. I live in the NY, Newburgh area can anyone give me pros and cons
