    Go to another company! Just 2 cents. I started with Stevens, great training but I starved to death on the road. If you stay just stay a company do not go to their Alliance program. They will push that on you and when they do run! Been there done that and got the cheap t-shirt to prove it! Great trainers bad company!

    I told them no to Alliance once. Since then I get the occasional random QC offer to join, that's it. Not one person other than fellow drivers and of coarse Stevens Radio when on hold, ever mention it.

    As a company drive with 11 months time I am averaging 27-2800 miles per week, I am grossing on average $800 per week. Yes some weeks are better than others, but if you show a willingness to run and demonstrate an aptitude for the job you will not starve.

    i suppose if i had not been forced to listen to it while on hold so many times my opinion might be different but as it is i will never willingly listen to it. he might be a great guy for all i know and granted he works there so its in no way unbiased commentary but a sane person can only take so much cheerleading before you get soured by it.

    Your thoughts have been heard!
    We will replace Major with the following recording, captured from the night crew....
    "Your call is important to us. Please remain on hold until it's your turn. You have 321 calls ahead of you..."
