The "meat and potatoes" of National Carriers.

I worked for them for 3 months back in 13. They told me I had to take a sleep study and gave me a 90 day medical card. I refused to spend thousands of dollars I didn’t have on a medical test I didn’t need so I did my 90 days and left. To their credit, I stayed busy most of the time. I learned very quickly that hauling meat on a regular basis was not my cup of tea. Running those loads was ok once I got used to running at night (while took quite a while) but it was the waiting around forever that I didn’t like.

 

They should walk thru fire for you.
Kroger pays 80hr detention NCI pays you ? .
My company for example pays additional 350 for loads that have multiple days to deliver NCI pays?
Companies pay detention on both ends of the load does NCI

Yea they should go to bat for their drivers if they dont pay the above examples

 

What kind of telematics gear do they run in the reefer? Automatic temp monitoring or do you have to manually check the reefer unit temp at each stop?

 

I have to ask straight out. I committed some felonies when I was young in 1989. Lived an honorable life since then. Do they hire felons. I have nothing but burglaries and car thefts.

 

If you do not have violent offenses or DUI's, your chances are better. Do not be afraid to ask them. Be straightforward, hide nothing, and if they say no, then talk to the next company.

 

@flightwatch, you still with National? If so how are they treating you? Was looking at going to work for them. But on the fence between them and freymiller. Worked for freymiller before, ran good, made descent miles but the pay wasn't all that great and your fuel stops were generally a loves. Hate them things. Unless you grab a shower at night, you're generally gonna wait in line. Small parking lots and locations are horrible. Nothing around them. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
