I looked at em a while back...looks like a solid good company...talked to several of their drivers....got lucky one night with a young blonde(female) driver.of theirs....she almost had me recruited. But the actually recruiter on the phone the next day dashed my hopes...they don't hire west of the Mississippi.

Good equipment
Friendly drivers (at least one) :wink:
it was good pay at the time I was interested

Thats who I started out with training is second to none equipment is good but from what I have heard they changed the contract from 1 year to two years now and you have to repay the money for training. When I was there the instructors were very well experienced and willing to work with you and show you the right way to do things before you go out with your trainer. As a company they are just like any other company they have thier good points and bad points and if I had to go back in time i still would have started there and going through thier school 8)

How is the home time? I see on their web site you have to be out seven days before you can get home. Does'nt that make it hard to ever get home on a week end?

I've talked to them and like what theyhad o say, I'm trying to get opinions from drivers past and present. Home time i was told back every other weekend. Not bad, you should be able to get great miles in two weeks as long as your not sitting somewhere waiting on a load. I'm also looking at a tanker company in the Northeast.

I got the impression she was looking to snag a "co-driver"......I mean come on.....HER FAVORITE MOVIE OF ALL TIME IS 'BRIDGE ON THE RIVER KWAI' ????????

and that just happened to be the only VHS tape I had in the truck!

why don't we just park at the next rest area--and you can bring it over and we can watch it TOGETHER!
