My experience Kuperus Trucking

Yup Dave is there along with two others all very good guys if you understand their job like they do yours it's a smooth ship. They are easy to talk to and brutally honest which I like....

They include a nice slip with the check for the week and it breaks down the load value and percentage for the driver I really like that. I have had two broker loads now both pay well and a couple very good mc sports loads that paid out well too. I have avg about 49cpm if you break the cash earned by miles so it's nothing to scoff at for a company guy with my little RECENT experience.

The issue I had the other night isn't typical as I understand it but let me tell ya a few more weeks like this last one and I'll be making a choice.... This was hands down the worst week I have ever had in my driving experience with wait times, bad shippers / receivers and frankly one very bad broker who drove me absolutely insane... I won't / can't get into that one but let me tell ya as bad as you imagine magnify it 10 fold... The guy was off his rocker!

The crazy part is it was NOT Kuprus fault and when I called the pulled every string they could and did everything possible to help. I think it was just a fluke week. Honestly I have to admit I really like the company as a whole very good honest people to work for. They communicate well.

My last few weeks where total opposite very fluid with a few small hiccups.

Right now my biggest problem is at home to be honest it's been years since I was away for these lengths of time. My wife is really very supportive BUT she has a way of letting me know without trying too and it's plain to see if you know where to look. 15 years I better be able to see..... Lol

Personally it doesn't bother me to be out as long as I make money that's worth it an am home weekends however my wife's sanity is far more important to me. We will give it some more time to adjust and see where we go from there.

 

We are home Friday and out Sunday afternoon most of the time. Not all but the vast majority!

 

O brother I swear I have a straight truck engine... Good lord I have hit that 50,000 mark a few times and your right it drops gears on hills! It feels like your in the mountains when your in rolling hills and takes literally miles to get up to speed sometimes lol!

 

As of last night I received a VERY good job offer to drive and be home every night and after dealing with Dicks and Menards I'm seriously considering it... It's 4 miles from home and one of the most honest respectable men I've ever known is the head Mechanic an thinks the world if the owner.. The wife immediately said go for it she wants me home lol.

I really Like Kuperus BUT they run hard to get there but I'm setting way to much once I am there. I've had time to cool off and think this weekend and most important listen to the wife... She made it clear that she isn't up to me being gone all the time anymore so I think the choice is made.

 

Let me tell ya Dicks is a bunch of jerks.... I don't care if I ever go back there again. Terrible attitudes and they treat drivers like gum stuck on a boot.
