USA truck strikes again

Well...1500 miles per week is good as long as your getting 70-75 cents per mile

 

Hazard a guess. Your attitude probably played into how much work you did or didn't recieve.

 

USA is a fine company and a pillar in the community of nw ARKANSAS!!!!

 

I enjoyed my 14 months there. I had an awesome relationship with my dispatcher. It was still an OTR job and I did spend Christmas Day in my truck 1,200 miles from my family, but that is part of paying your dues to the industry. To each their own though. Hope you find yr place in this field.

 

I had an awful experience with USA. I was to pick up a load at the abs yard in buffalo N.Y.. it was a Wednesday afternoon before thanksgiving and a blizzard was imminent. Everyone had left the yard but one guy. I drove around back to pick up my trailer planning to high tail it out of there in front of that blizzard. When I got to the gate it was locked and all were gone for the weekend. Dispatch advised via qualcomm they knew of no way to contact anyone to let me out. I called then, desperate to get an answer. the dispatcher yelled at me to not call use qualcomm he was too busy to talk. After several fruitless qualcomm messages and 2 hrs I typed.."I am driving a diesel powered vehicle that is loaded and weighs 80k. I CAN get out of this yard." He typed back "Break anything and you WILL be fined. Enjoy your thanksgiving weekend"
I did finally get out when by a stroke of luck someone pulled in and I slipped through the open gate. But not in time to miss the blizzard. I stayed in a nearby truckstop all four days. No one checked on me and no one ever asked how I got out.
I'm a glutton for punishment. I drove for them another month until my truck broke down in Tulsa (I was out of AZ at the time) and time for repair estimated 2 weeks! They told me "tough it out and no we won't reimburse motel costs." Their truck was in the shop when I cleaned it out and caught my own ride home.

 

Yeah , you should've been a good little trucker boy and just maybe you would get an extra pat on the buttocks if you bent over & flipped your skirt up high enough for them
Right? ....

Don't sweat it tho, USA TRUCKS will never be a good investment for ANY DRIVER EVER! !!!!
you did yourself a big favor by getting away from those people

 

I can't believe stuff like this still happens............this stuff happened in the 80's and early 90's

"Tough it out" Huh?

 

I know. Right?
