Walmart here I come!

Foot in the door Cap'n Nate. I would apply for Beaver Dam and after a year transfer to Menomonie. Haven't heard if they are hiring more at Menomonie any time soon. Feel free to PM me with any questions. Shutting down in Racine, WI tonight. Roads are bad and had at least four cars spin out in front of me in the last 2 hours. The last one almost hit me, so I will take that as a sign to shut it down. Only about 10 miles from the first store on a three stop grocery load in Milwaukee, so it should come off pretty quick right away tomorrow. Have a great night everyone!

 

I will tell you do a very good pretrip insp wear seat belt at all times enter truck properly spend hand crank properly on landing gear dont open door backing up honk horn each time you back headlights on all time he tough on test good luck

 

Matt, that is an advantage guys like you and I have down here.... winter weather driving experience. If the roads are open, I would be rolling too!

You may not escape the Dallas area until you go home Tuesday. The road closures in the area the past few days, especially around Sanger, probably have a lot of loads backed up. The warmer temps in Dallas tomorrow should help thaw the roads out some more. Be safe and trust your Yankee instincts!

 

Be safe guys. We have it pretty easy out here. Yes, its cold, but the roads are fine.................. well, short of the Christmas shoppers. LOL I was lucky that I didn't have to go to Purina in Flagstaff, as that would have been dicey. However, I am used to running in rough weather, especially when I was hauling propane.

Matt, I have done 2 refer loads. The first one was quite the learning experience. The second one wasn't so bad. Different, but not bad. We haul quite a lot of dry groceries out of Casa Grande.

Anyway, night all. It was a long day.

 

Well got road test next Thursday for Alachua fl.... was told to be prepared to be there 4 to 6 hours. ...What besides road test and pre trip will this entail...????

 

Hello guys. I've been quietly following this thread for nearly a month. I'm happy to say that I've been hired on to drive for walmart starting in January. I would like to think everyone for their contributions to this thread and for providing helpful tips and insight into what to expect. You guys have been a great help. I'm excited about my new opportunity and I feel fortunate enough to have been selected. Again thanks to everyone that contributed. And keep those stories and experiences coming.

 

DOT physical and drug screen. Also a face to face introduction to the staff such as the operation manager, general manager, mechanics, coordinators etc. At least that's how it went down for me.
