National DCP (Dunkin Donuts)

i had actually applied at the local one to me, up in MA.

but, i wanted to be a yardman, so i could get off the road. (this was well before they put up a new building, away from the Franklin, MA location)

in the beginning, i was told that ALL newbies work as a yardman, and go on the road after x amount of time.

they could not understand my wanting to ""drop down" to yardman...well put in x amount of time, ON the road, and sooner or later, you want off.

anyways, some routes you have a helper, some you do not.

you WILL go to sidewalk locations, MINI shopping malls, gas stations, where ever they are located.

it paid well back when i applied, even for a yardman's job.

but it can be HEAVY work, wheeling sacks of flour, and other items, up and sown a slipper ramp, in bad weather, and non-plowed snow, JUST LIKE any other food service job!

cannot say if they are union or not, benefits are pretty good as well.

i cannot answer about extra board drivers, or any specific shifts, here in my area, they run nearly 24/7/365, again...like ANY OTHER food service company.

 

Did you see this thread yet? https://www.thetruckersreport.com/truckingindustryforum/threads/anyone-work-for-ndcp-dunking-donuts.900123
Some good info in there.

 

Mmmm, donuts, wouldn't last long at that job, no wonder there's an opening,,

 

I'm pretty sure any such company will have an extra board. Vacations and call outs need to be covered, and that's the extra board.
