    made it to the cons last night and spent the night...got unloaded this morning with a preplan picking up in Ohio....now I am waiting in a holding lot....I am going to whitewater wisconsin....btw the routing computer went batty again...its sending me up IL53 off of 290 to hook to us 12 through the burbs...##### wonderful...

    I don't know how much longer I will be driving a red truck...got a call today from a small reefer fleet...they are interested in me and pay percentage.....they usually only hire when you have a year....they said I might have to go to a trainer for a week or 2 for 50 bucks a day....that i am not happy about but the percentage pay is about 21% starting...averaging 37-40 cpm...so I am wondering...

    I have been with several other companies, including a small reefer outfit, and I always end up coming back to Roehl. Trust me, from what I have seen, Roehl has the least amount of BS. All companies has a bunch of BS to deal with, but Roehl has the least of all the others I tried out. Also, .37 - .40 cpm really isn't that much. Stick around here another year or so and you would be making about that, if you include the production bonus in December and any other bonuses you might get. Just saying, I really regretted my decision every time I left Roehl.

    That said, if you think you have found something that fits you better, go for it!

    I don't know the company I'm with is pretty awesome. I mean let's face it they hired me and made me....errr let me teach and audit the eLogs. We've got awesome trucks and trailers and what not. Come on down, I'll give you a high five during orientation.

    Nah Roehl fits me good...after talking to my loved ones a little more looks like I will stick with the Power of Red...as much as I want to go to the smaller company there is too much I don't really know...their drivers say its awesome...but I can't do the 50 dollars a day for training...just too much going on...

    Mel...yeah like I really wanna go to your company...yeah you'll high five me while someone else stabs me in the back lol...

    at my cons this morning...Routing computer forgot to take in account that US 12 is closed North of I43 so I had to take a detour around...finally got here...not too bad of a place...I get all the free soda and coffee I can drink while here LOL:biggrin_25522:...the dock has a neat locking in system to ensure your straight but the only problem is that it ripped off one of my splash guards...i looked at the other trailers in the yard and noticed their splash guards are a whole lot shorter than ours for that reason...LOL
