First (and last) day w Dollar General

The exact numbers vary by DC, but you get cpm, stop pay, and unloading.

If you don't mind sharing, how did the pay breakdown? Was it paid per case, or by stop? also, how much was it per case, or stop? Also, what was CPM? do they have any sort of pay guarantee ( say 800 per week) or anything?

Werner and dollar tree route

I run Dollar General with Werner, I've never felt abused. Actually, they leave me alone most of the time. I'm making decent money, its not that bad.

Silly Question - Where would I pick up my truck - at a terminal?

When i first started with Werner, I was in Allentown for about a week. The first two days were orientation and the rest was just waiting for a trainer. Im pretty sure i was the last one from my class to get a trainer. I was with my trainer for six weeks. I was issued my truck from the Omaha terminal.

Werner making me go 8 hours away instead of one

My guess is that was the closest available trainer. Which terminals are they, if you dont mind me asking?

I think penndot lifted the restriction. They have a facebook page. Im headed to PA tomorrow too.

Anybody know if we will be able to get into pa tomorrow? I have a load to mechanicsburg tomorrow. I'm new to this territory. How long do these closures last? Boy I'm missing my Walmart dedicated account right now.

First trip to far northeast. Advice?

I've been coming up 95 Friday nights for a while now and have had pretty good luck finding parking. There's quite a few service plazas in CT, the first one going northbound is the smallest i think. I don't go there. I also try to avoid the pilot at exit 40.

I think you'll be alright though. I-95 is pretty much a straight shot to Canton.
