Having the Tank repair shop in High Point we see the rollover carnage all the time. I saw an Enterprise trailer a couple of weeks ago at Grace TW that had been imploded and looked like a banana. I imagine they have a job opening.

I drive out of Morrow and saw that truck last week - quite a mess. I asked my TM how the driver was and was told that he was already out of the hospital and back home. I didn't have the time to gather more details at that time.
I gave the truck a close inspection as a reminder to me of how badly things can go out there. I saw that truck for the first time today. First thing I thought was there is no way he made it. Makes you remember how dangerous our job is. It was one of the dedicated guys out of Augusta that run over to Stepan and back. Supposedly all he got was a broken leg.

Was that you, your wife and child I saw back there the other day....kind of an off brown GM product for a car??

Superior....
I'm getting my hazmat soon and Superior Carriers is advertising in my area, Maine. Would like some honest info on this company. The flatbed company I drove for just closed down last monday. Any info on this company or a better than average flatbed company that hires in this area would be greatly appriciated.

All the info on the company is right here in this thread. Superior is a terminal to terminal company. Just about every terminal works a little different than the others. You have different terminal managers and dispatchers at each and with that you have different personalities. Some are good some are bad. Personally I have never had a problem with anyone here at Superior and I have been here two years. I am a glass half full kind of guy though and genuinely like my job. There are drivers here at Superior though that are absolutely miserable. I don't think they would ever be happy no matter where they worked. Superior has treated me good. My terminal is one of the best in the company IMO. I have a good professional relationship with my dispatch and the Terminal Manager. I do what they ask and if they are in a bind I am usually there to give a hand. I have no info on the Maine terminal as I have never been there ( to the terminal). Overall I am very pleased with Superior and will never work with another OTR company. They are as perfect of a fit as I'm gonna get with a OTR trucking company and I can't imagine the grass being any greener. The only way I would leave is to find a local $20+ an hour fuel hauling company that pays over time and is M-F. Peace |
