    Hope you read the fine print on that bonus. Was talking to some guys about last years plan and they weren't going to do it if it was mileage based again this year, which it is.

    I deleted the original qual comm msg about it, but there was an insert in a paystub. That's at home though. Basically to qualify for the bonus you have to have X amount of miles between such and such dates over the holiday. I believe it's 2200 miles. Call Troy when you get a chance and he can give you the specifics. Obviously I'm not doing it or I'd know the exact wording!
     
    American-Trucker Thanks this.

    i can do 2200 if they have the work...i talked to someone a week or 2 back who filled me in on the mileage requirements they had last year. if they expect 2200 and keep you sitting, well i can see how that might be a problem. worst case might make a good impression signing up.

    im with AT, im doing it anyway not a huge holiday person. no close family, probably why i like this job so much.
     
    American-Trucker Thanks this.
