Pros
No pros. Learned more in 24 hours at new employer than I did in three weeks working for Doug Andrus.
Cons
-Wanted me to “train” with mentor for 7 weeks. They do this so the mentors can get more miles and money. -Company wanted me to falsify HOS logs so mentor could drive longer. -Sat in the passenger seat for 16 hours a day while mentor drove on my hours. -Told by mentor to just go with falsifying records and I’d have my own truck making $70,000 a year in 5 more weeks. -Company only pays $0.30 per mile to new drivers. That is a lot of miles a year to get to $70,000. -When asking if I could get a mentor that would actually train me I was told “you just can’t handle being a trucker”.
