Does Stevens have a fuel mileage bonus as part of the pay package? What about a safety bonus? If so, how much are the bonuses and how often are they paid?

snakeskin Thanks this. -
Thank you Smokr. How does Stevens plan to work the rest of your training around Christmas?
-
Well, guess what?
Instead of 7am to 4pm this week, it is going to be 7am to 10pm Monday to Thursday, Friday off, and out with trainer driver Saturday or Sunday. -
Smokr, I'm curious if you know what the issue was with your school compatriot who was dismissed after 2 weeks of class. It seems that MVR would have revealed any driving issues quickly. What more does Stevens check? Thx
-
Before I received my hire date they asked extensively about criminal history and any prioe drug usage. They also wanted to know about mental health history. I guess hey can be very very picky these days.
-
When his deep check came back, it showed a long history of driving problems, speeding tickets, etc that went back quite a few years. He said he told the Stevens staff member that he had not had as much trouble the last three or four years, but they were concerned about his extensive history and said he was too much a risk to put on the road under the Stevens name. He was told other companies won't care as much and will likely not even check back so far.
There may have been other things, he seemed quite open and honest a guy, but how well do you know someone you've seen daily for two weeks for six or eight hours a day irregularly?
For all I know he had much worse charges against him that he didn't care to mention in front of the four of us who took him out for dinner to say goodbye and all that. -
Once orientation is complete, what can I expect the first few days with the trainer to be like?

The jake is computer controlled. If your foot is not on the excellerator or the clutch the jake will come on and slow down the truck. Sometimes I forget to turn it off. I notice it is on when I start to down shift, like on a ramp or going into a rest area. The jake will come on. But if the jake is on and you try to up shift. You will scratch every gear. Jake seems to work with down shifting but not up shifting.
