We've already got pre-hires for Werner and US Xpress! And we could go with Swift IF we moved 3 hours north in Tampa. We have a few things against us that prevents us from having a flood of available companies, one is our location (Fort Myers, FL) and the other is that we don't have a consistent work history, companies want different things, for example Conway said they want to see 12 months in the last 3 years. Now there's a reason why we don't have that work history. In rearly 2009 we went to Panama with our dump trucks. In October, 2010, we came back to the US with one of those dump trucks, but didn't start making money with it unitl this year, 2011. So we can't file taxes yet. SO... no work history! Sucky. Werner and US Xpress seemed to be ok with it, I just had to fax some documents proving we did work this year, contracts with brokers and stuff. Of course everything is conditional upon graduating the school and then going to the orientation and passing THEIR driving tests and DOT physicals and stuff
Our first choice is US Xpress, teams get .48 cents split right out of training, and teams get all the brand spanking new trucks woot! They also will install an invertor for us. Werner is 2nd choice only because I have always only heard bad things about them. But if we have to use them to get our foot in the door then so be it.
