Millis chat room

Na, it won't sway my decision. I am definitely putting in an application with Millis when the time comes. I was just curious as to some of the reasons why drivers may leave Millis besides not being cut out for OTR. Obviously there are some really crappy companies out there and I understand why one would leave them but Millis seems to be pretty good and somewhere I feel I would stay for a long while if not possibly retire from.

I also inquired about if Millis is constantly expanding because they are always hiring. I know some of these positions are to fill people that left but in your experience does it appear that Millis is trying to expand?

Again, these are just curiosities of mine and nothing more. Just trying to find out more about the company

 

I'm sure there are many different reasons people leave. Personal reasons, can't take it, thought it would be easier. For drivers with experience, some think the grass is greener on the other side, maybe a local job, etc...Some people you can't make happy no matter what. For me this job is more attitude than anything else. The driving part comes easy to me. It's the frustrating things that really test me. I don't get irked half as much as I used to in my earlier years. That helps a lot.

 

Bear and Sully - can I ask how long you folks have been driving truck?

thanks

 

Alright Millis drivers, here is another question for you. I am probably driving ya'll crazy and if I am I apologize.

What are the top five things you like about Millis so far? If you have more than that please list them.

 

And to add to duckys question, if u don't mind RD, top 5 things you wish Millis would improve on. Thanks guys for all you input btw.

 

Sully thank you. Sorry no pun intended but I have read so much on here that I jsut dont read everyone's profile.

thank you

 

Are you folks paid on a per diem or a per mile?? I have seen the per diem thing come up a few times?

 

I believe Bear is on per diem and Sully and Baritone are on mileage pay. Millis gives you the option of choosing either one. They don't force per diem.
