I have been with them going on 3 months and i can say that in that time

they have kept me pre planned 100% of the time.
(Althought things can change at the drop of the hat...this is good while it last)

I usually run no more than 9 a day so i never run out of hours and i

communicate with my dispatcher...he keeps me going

Good Luck 8)

Well the first day was very busy, dot physicals, weight lift test, and road test. I got a praise for being the only one that backed in without having to pull up so i got a big head now j/k. Lots of paperwork today and looks like 3 of the four in the class will need to fly out to get trucks cause there is only one truck here no biggie to any of us. It was nice to see a small group than 10 plus which is bad in my opinion now that i no better. Got to go over reefer and the important use of the steering lock which is not a hassle at all. Well thats all for now.

WEIGHT LIFT TEST?
This must be new. I didn't have to do no weight lift test 3.5 years ago.
Chances are, those who have to fly out my end up down in Ontario. They have plenty of non asigned trucks. Well they did a week ago.
Small class. Mine had 17 in it. No clue to how many are still with us.
