Default Dedicated J.B Hunt ???

Hello everybody. I was just wondering about a dedicated Home Depot run in Allentown, PA for J.B Hunt.
Recruiter told me it pays about 55K and home daily. Now I have a natural mistrust to J.B Hunt.
Is the pay true or too good to be true??? thanks for any info.

Actually, it sounds more like welcome to and good job in completing orientation.

Now that you're onboard, that local position you were interested in has been filled but we do have a number of OTR positions available in your region, what do ya say.

Thanks for the warning. A friend of mine told me they took his PROMISED local run away from him after orientation and offered him OTR. I just thought he was a single case. Seems to be a regular thing...hmmmm...I guess I pass on that offer.

They are pulling the old bait and switch. You quit your job because we promised you a home every night local position. Oops sorry we filled that one before you even got here (or it never existed in the first place), but hey sunshine we have plenty of crappy OTR positions to fill. And they cant figure out why they always need drivers.

Paul.....give your new DM a copy of your Avatar pic. Tell whomever it is, that you survived that...and will happily kick the arse of anyone who messes with your hometime, simply because YOU did survive it!! :lol::lol::lol:

That pic makes you one seriously tough mudder! Especially in the eyes of those who have never been in a truck cab...let alone a truck wreck.
