Hey JVND, I do believe JB Hunt has flat and curtian side. Hunt is part of Crete... I use to confuse them....
On tuesday I called about my safety bonus as well, told them I haven't seen it the last 2 qtrs. Becareful with Arrow, Watch your CDL, don't take a hit. I was really worried about this summer and running the 15 or 10 through the desert. Figure people should start blowing tires soon. I just didn't want to be stuck somewhere waiting for arrow to pay for the tire that should take a few minutes to pay for not 18hrs or more.... My right front was wearing bad on the outside I had told them it was bad and that I needed a front end alignment but told to keep running we'll do it later this load is needed.... I'll post more from when I reach the hotel tonight or after the first day of orientation tomorrow. JB does have flat's and curtainside vans. Most are dedicated to Weyerhauser accounts. JB's largest concentration of flat's are on the west coast, but they have flat's nationwide. I have also seen their trucks tugging tanks in MO and KS, pulling animal blood and tallow.

Animal blood is used to make fire re-tardent foam, like that used by airport's and the military, and tallow is used for making hosehold wax, animal feed, candles, and half a dozen other products.

no they are not all the same,i have never waited for repairs or payment of repairs.arrow is a s**t hole company that does not give a damn about its drivers or they wouldn't be running such dangerous junk.the owner See's the writing on the wall and is probably stockpiling all the money for the end..it's happened before.just an opinion...

Got a call from Sherman Bros. I guess they haul glass. Guy said I would do much better and earn more with them. Anybody have an opinion on this company. On the plus side Arrow is really improving my runs. Should have some nice checks coming. 2500 mi. plus and multiple stops each week. Wonder how long it will last. I was also surprised. I had a fuel leak develope on Hwy 10 in Wisconsin just 4 miles after a drop. I was leaving a trail of fuel and thought I was on fire. Fuel was hitting the exhaust. This is a 2 lane highway in the middle of nowhere. I called breakdown and in 3 1/2 hours the repair was made and the bill paid.:clap: I'm sure it helped I was under load and 2 more stops to go. It was a broken fuel return line. I haven't had any layovers either:clap:
Hey Paul, if you start a new thread I'll keep this one going. Mainly just to let others know how Arrow is doing with facts and how I'm doing as a driver for them. Drive safe |
