Wel Companies Orientation 09/24/2012

Yeah...not real happy. The only week of good pay he has had has been when he was out for 3 weeks. Last week he got 1400 miles, and this week he will have 900 miles. I told him that if things don't get better..then he may have to look elsewhere. Let's just say that you have made more then he has last week and this week. The only good pay was when we had 2 weeks worth of runs turned into one check. I told him that I will give it one more month...but I can't make it on 900 miles or 1400 miles, so I don't know. I looked at Hirschback..but I think for me it would be better to have him home weekly, because it has been physically hard on me. Fibromyalgia has been in full force for the past 3-4 weeks...so now I am on muscle relaxers and nerve pain killers...(just didn't want to live my life that way). I wish your wife best of luck in school, and I think it is always important to keep your ears open to other opportunities. Take care guys..be careful..drive safe...and have a good week.

 

I am sorry to hear that JBtrucker, but I know how you are feeling. I don't know of any other companies that do. Maybe you should try posting a new thread to get other people who might know. My hubby is going to IL today..he was going to see if he could drop the shipment at Joilet because it isn't scheduled to deliver until tomorrow. Like I said he only got in 900 miles last week, and 1400 miles the week before. I'll keep in touch and let you know what happens with us too.

 

H.O. Wolding hires out of Chicago area if you have a place to park the truck as they only have one terminal in Wisconsin. They do training and I have my dog with me, have to pay a deposit as with most places. The miles you desire definitely seem attainable. Hope this helps.

 

I wish the best of luck to you and your wife. I am sorry that it didn't work out, but you are not the only one going through this. Hubby is ready to take the truck back and turn it in. I am looking at a company called D&T transport up in Minnesota that would probably be a better fit. Small company that hauls produce, candy, and Jeni-o, and runs the I-70 and I-80 corridors along with the east corridor of I-35. He would be able to stop through more frequently on his way out and back up. I'll let you know what happens with us, and I will keep in touch and again the best of luck going out to the both of you.

 

Well hubby's last day was Friday...drove to Green Bay to pick him up, so I have a week of home time with him before he goes to another company. Wishing you guys the best of luck. We'll let you know what happens with us.
