Ok, I am a wanna be new driver. I have contacted both Schneider and USA Truck. The recruiter at Schneider seems less than thrilled with her job. She has been a little rude, very presumtuious, and little un-communicative.
That being said, I am prolly going with USA Truck.
Here are my Q's:
- What is "no touch freight"?
- What is "drop and hook"?
- How do the above 2 differ?
- How does a newbie know if a lumper is needed?
- How are the lumpers paid?
- Who pays said lumpers?
- If I am given 2 days off per every 2 weeks worked how far would I be from home when I get those 2 days?
- Is it possible to be 24 hours from home and start my 2 days off therefore keeping me from getting home?
- What is better... ComCheck or Direct Deposit?
- Why?
- Out of my 13 hour day how many hours can/should I be driving?
- In those 13 hours how many real miles can I get?
