Been an awesome first year! - Otr Tanker Driver bei Prime: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Opportunity to "make some bank"

Inward cams the worst thing but I don't do anything crazy

CDL training, getting 1 year experience, learning the business. Decent company, but trucking is high demand, dangerous, I am ready for dispatch 24/7 and at their beck and call and I would like to get paid. Many other companies available to be hired for at 65 cents a mile. I am becoming on owner operator and taking over an old timers truck, just waiting for everything to be ready.

Pay and miles are minimal for company drivers. Seem to always cap at approximately 2000 to 2800 miles in the best week then the next week maybe 800 to 1500 miles. Seem to get you decent mileage then follow up with many short loads ranging from 150 miles to 400 miles unpaid time between loads. For reefer I am regularly having 1-3am deliveries. Then will have hours left and get dispatched for an 8 am load. I 10% of the time know my next load approximately a day prior as a pre-plan before I finish my load. Usually have no idea once I deliver if I will have a load in 1-2 days or 1 hour. Company truck is now governed at 58mph on the pedal and 62 miles on the cruise control.
