    I dont work their but I thought I herd some place that they went to automatics. Not sure if it was a rumor or fact but I know I would want to know before I got their. Some drivers dont want autos.

    They have a 3 week orientation? That can't be correct!

    The no APU's is bad but the no pets is excellant. I only apply at companies that do not allow pets. Do you really want to end up with a truck that the previous driver had some nasty mutt in there and dog hair everywhere. Nope not me.


    three week orientation would be fine with me if they pay that much for each week. Ill take it! I can deal with $1650.00 just for going to orientation.

    Orientation is only 3 days, the school is 3 weeks, and you do not get paid for that. You will not start getting paid till you get on a trainers truck. Also we only have a couple of automatics

    Not correct. That is training pay for students. Orientation is 2-3 days, depending on how many people are in there. Also Dave's info is outdated since it is from 2008. 1750 watt max inverter allowed but can only be installed by corporate terminal. Insurance has changed, I don't have it so I don't know the specifics, but I think it is more than $30/week now.

    spanky's right. I called millis today and they said you start getting paid when you go out with a trainer. As for there medical insurance $30.00 a week is not bad I was paying $98.00 a week for crapy insurance.

    I can't sleep in a hot truck in the summer or a cold one in the winter. I guess I just won't be getting any fuel bonuses.
