yeah, I know which run you were on. yeah, the PPG is a great run. I dont think Ive ever put a driver on it that has complained.

Ive never put a driver on the grandview job. I cant seem to find anyone in that area. However it does look like pretty good job. I show 20 bucks per drop for grandview customers and 25 BH Stop Pay for pick up and delivery of BH loads. $15 per hour for training and other work assigned.
$120 Holiday Pay.
$8.50 Weekly pay for use of personal cell phone <never seen that before.
Average W2 of $50,000 per year

Default so far so good

made it through orientation got the packet with specific info about this dcs account .....little suprise this account is paid prac miles...trucks are red and have 150 gallon tanks....kind of nice we actually see our fm and dispatcher in person every time we pick up a load ....first load 1150 miles to south carolina either dh back or pick up a back haul....so far all looks as promised just sitting at home til sun and enjoying my paid holiday as memorial day is a 120 paid holiday from day one so far it is all that was promised...fm mentioned that because of the number of trailers on our "captured" fleet it is almost a neccessity that we take our 34's at home after droping trailer ....what a shame hence 5 on 2 off....

I will tell from my orientation. Rather easy, but they want you to drive their way. And to be truthful, I'm kinda glad they do. They are really into being aware of what is ahead, behind, and on the side of you.

You will find out more when you go.

Good luck.

JB Hunt stresses safety -- big time! Their program has made me a safer driver.
