Pros

You get Saturday and Sunday off but that’s the only plus.

Cons

Everything else. Pay blows when you first get hired. Then you don’t get to full rate for 3 years doesn’t matter how much experience you have. Management is awful. They treat you like a slave. They will try to kill you to make you quit. The dispatching is literally the worst I’ve ever seen. They will route you 100 miles out of your way to get a pickup just to bring you back where you started from. Complete idiots. The good ol boys that have been there and kiss the supervisors, you know what, get everything they want. I absolutely hate working here. When winters over I’m gone. Anywhere is better than here. I sometimes think flipping burgers at McDonald’s would have been a better idea than working for these bozos. You’d be better off committing suicide if this is the only job you can find.
