Standards are being lowered.....look at all the drivers men/women that look like the Pillsbury Doughboy! Are we that HARDUP for drivers.....many of the newhires in the last couple of years would have not made it past the interview stage, years ago!
Averitt needs to look inward as to why well qualified drivers and mechanic's are no longer beating the doors down to get hired, or why longtime drivers, dock and mechanics are leaving!
We have a longtime truckload driver in Tif who is trying to move into a open sleeper shuttle position there....he is getting the runaround.....If they screw him over on this deal...he will probably say ADIO's.
Rumor has it that once your in T/L FORGET about transferring out......these drivers will just leave if there is no hope of moving up the food chain...out of T/L!
