I'll be there with ya on the 5th. I still get the 2k toward my maintenance account, but no mention of a 5k sign on bonus. Must depend on where you live.
Yes i do believe its only the western 11 but if I'm wrong someone speak up. I don't want to sound greedy but I am and don't want to leave any money on the table.
When I signed on in February, they didn't have a big bonus like that. Mine was a $500 bonus for getting a truck through SFI and $1400 bonus in my maintenance account. They did have big bonuses like that for the guys who were bringing their own trucks though.
One of these days I'm gonna get something heading out to CA and run some freight around there for a few weeks. Seems to pay really well out there. Only reason I haven't done it yet is because I don't have the tire chains required to cross Donner Pass, but that area should be clearing up sometime soon.
