I'M about HVAC'd out. I worked part time in the 60's and 70's for 2 buddies dads in summers and while going to college. I drove local for Merchant's and then worked in office for 3 years but didn't care for it. Started my own company in 81 and did real good until about mid 90's. Every one wants you to work for peanuts now. Too many illegals and dumb ### contractors who don't know squat. they are just price shoppers. Worked in Iraq and put some money back. That is one hot ### place. We had 9 days in a row where it was 130 in shade. Any how I'm thinking of going back to driving. It sounds like the trucking business is getting as bad as construction.
Got to go get ready for Texas/OU. Brother lives in Westlake and I may root for OU just to piss him off.LOL

get the aliens out.....enforce the laws....
-
Enforcing the laws won't happen. If that did happen, employers would have to employ solely US citizens and pay them what they're worth. Can't have that, can we?
-
Also, after I've left they could call the company and say "Hey, I just had a delivery from one of your drivers and my $5000 diamond ring is missing now."
-
This company only has approx 26 trucks. They go throgh so many drivers that there printer probably runs out of ink just printing applications
-
-
Only those with Vision - See! -
Company drivers with some longevity can make some pretty good buck these days, but then that depends on how good their dispatch is.
Hope you bought some Iraqi Dinar's. Couldl prove to be a very smart speculative move. -
i had recently been offered a place in transport tech school but when im done they can complete me so i don't have to pay it. all i need to do is work for swift the company your talking about. for a year. now they want me to get int here as fast as possible. very aggressive in the way they talk to me. but anyhow.
i said to them i have a appointemnt at a certain day , i don't have transportation to make it back and forth from there. im not sure what to do. with you talking about swift makes me even more cautious about it.
i need to know if there any good campanies around where i am Lewistown PA near state college. that they would be willing to train on the job or even anywhere do you know of any companies that do that? thanks -
Just finished watching the History Channels Modern Marvels on Truck Stop. They dispensed alot of facts about the industry. Saying that trucks travel more than 1.5 trillion miles a year and 11 billion tons of freight. Imagine that. That is power. Truckers have ALOT of power, there is just the lack of organization. The laws, the bad and evil companies, the ******* shippers and receivers, you don't have to put up with it. Well, you do now, but if truckers were to really fight back, they'd listen eventually. Just my two cents. Also, they chose a Werner driver as one of the commentators. Showing off the cleanest smurfmobile and driver I ever scene. Image is everything isn't it.
