Walmart here I come!

Thank you gentlemen, and yes NYVet if the drivers at Walmart are half as helpful as you guys it will be worth the wait. I'll keep in touch

 

How long before health insurance kicks in?

 

Benefits are as of day one!

 

Good time to try and get a job with Walmart.. A lot of drivers are quitting'. And now that they will be adding Cameras. Many more will leave..

 

Gary, care to share more details about the cameras in the trucks, either here or via PM? I am out of Sealy too, but have been on a LOA, so I am not aware of some recent changes.

 

Nothing said of cameras here at Toby or any other DC I go to or know people who work there. It's been a rumor for some time but nothing has been confirmed, in fact it's been denied thus far.

 

It would not surprise me since more and more carriers are moving in the direction of video-based DRM systems. Considering I have used my own personal black box recorder for more than 7 years, I am not concerned about a camera capturing what is going on while I drive. I do have some issues with audio being recorded as well, since we are allowed to use a cell phone in the truck, although with restrictions.

Jim, what do you think about cameras possibly in the trucks? Everywhere we go on Walmart's property is under video surveillance already.

 

A Walmart Roadteam driver was in Sealy yesterday telling what has been decided on

 

The wife here. They are only talking about a forward facing camera, and one that shows down the side of the truck. Nothing on audio and nothing inside the truck.

We knew rumors would start, and we expect them to get carried to the ridiculous.

Frankly, I see this as a good thing, and will really help Walmart in litigation.
