    How long does it take from the time you fill out app to hear from someone? I will call recruiter right after I fill out app... My wife will be attending CDL school, hopefully, Aug 29th for about 6 weeks. I will need to drive for USX for at least 30 days so that I can train her...

    What are you options (companies) and have you read thru the DAC report on them to see what folks have to say?

    Yep, that is about average. higher the last 6 weeks or so as we have been doing 6200 to 6500. We have never had any issue at all with home time. That is completely dependent on your fleet manager so build a good relationship,

    One good thing to remember is arrange alternate transport home in case you are not hired, try to build a good relationship with your FM as well... If you have a good attitude and get with the right FM they will run you till you beg for a break
    We've been a team here for 4 years and this is the best year yet
