So are you happy with your current wages?
I know Uncle Sam is happy that you are helping paying down the National debt.
 
I keep hearing rumors about this starting rate hike. Is there any truth to it. As far as I can tell is bs from driver to driver.
 
How could they up the starting rate for some but not for all. We are all under 1 contract no supplements. I don't get it
 
Not total BS some regions are uping their starting pay due to driver shortage.
The terminal I work at is one of them, all new hires in City start at 23, however when working dock they go back down to the normal 16/17 something or whatever it is for 4 year progression to scale for dock work. Also they are frozen at 23 when driving until year 3 they get 1 dollar more. Then top rate at year 4.
 
It's for terminals that can't get drivers.
At our barn they can't get road drivers, so they are waiving the 1 year experience requirement. You can get hired on as a road driver right out of cdl school now.

Can i ask which terminal you are out of? We can go to PM if you'd prefer.
