    I’ve often wondered how many good drivers they’ve missed out on because of that.

    You’ve got 11 yrs on me, but I’ve applied to both Ashley and Meijer and couldn’t work for either one because I’m just outside of their hiring areas.

    lol System is the Swift of flatbed. I deal with those knuckleheads almost daily. So easy to run your mouths and not ask why I walked out. So I’ll tell ya. One was the per diem structure, the other was a bad fit after looking at what the meat and potatoes of the company was. If you don’t think these companies swoon you to the moon and back to get you on board, you’re dumber than I thought. I truly hope ship ex meets my expectations. It’s down the road from my house, and I like to run hard.

    If you like to run hard and a steady paycheck. ShipEX is good for that. Communication with the driver sometimes gets wonky but patience is needed and they always work it out.
     
    JAYROK Thanks this.

    If you live in Salt Lake that's even better mostly all they do is go east and come back. Usually every 2 weeks you will be back in Salt Lake.
