| Sister company of Covenant Transport. If it was me I'd say no thanks, but do what is in your best interests. Good luck. |

| The fact that they are owned by Covenant would be enough for me to look elsewhere. |

I've been with Star since February 2007. Yes, they do get you home most weekends, but you will also often find yourself sitting around truck stops waiting for loads until you run out of hours, and running a lot of 200-300 mile short hops that have you spending more time at docks than behind the wheel.
In the past year, I've averaged 1861 miles per week. I'm grateful to Star for the training and experience I've gained but that's not enough to pay my bills. So, as soon as possible I'm going to get the Hazmat endorsement and move on to Crete. |
