    Does USA Trucks all have APUs?

    I am a student driver and will be graduating in about a 3 weeks and am looking for a good company to start with and I have heard they are good.

    Scarface :
    If you can find some other trucking company besides USA I highly suggest it. I have been here for about 7 weeks now. I am in my final week of training . The experience has been unbelievably bad. My trainers truck has been in shop for a total of 7 days not consecutive but all together. So I missed 7 days of driving to get my hrs. My trainer went home for 5 days and my training manager tried to make me stay in a motel , she said it would be more cost effective for me to stay at a motel I went over her head and at least got to go home for a few days. Came back on Mon met trainer in Dallas started driving all was going good until we had to give up a 1500 mile load to cover for some BS dedicated rought because someone quit. Now here we sit in a truck stop with no load and may not get one till Mon. I will try to stick it out for a year because I do not want to pay them back there money for school , but I would never suggest that anyone come to work here. I wandered if all the post that written on here was true and it is sad to say that most are.

    I've had my ups and downs with this company, these last few months I've basically been kicked down the stairs with the bottom coming very close...

    But, I've officially been with this company a year. But like I think I said in another thread I have to look over this contract and see when I can really quit... Might make some calls to DS before I try to contact USA.

    I will say this though... this one year has gone by fairly fast compared to the previous few years, I'm sure its probably because I haven't really been home much to actually enjoy this year but meh...

    The bad thing is, you are with a trainer. It isn't supposed to be like that for them. They are supposed to keep rolling to get you out faster and get someone else in. The more they let the office workers get away with, the more it effects everyone, even the ones it isn't supposed to...Like trainers.
