Profile For Bird-One

Was onboarding for you same as an otr driver?

Unless you’re going to be running in and out of California you’d be fine. DOT has bigger fish to fry than pick up trucks that may or may not be deleted

Good grief man glad you’re okay! I gotta ask though because I’ve been racking my brain since you posted this.

What the heck did you catch your arm, and head on?

Gotcha. Thanks for clarifying that for me. So you’re getting 2 days off every week than sounds like?

Welcome back man! I’ve always wondered about the local side of Walmart. At one point whenever I’ve seen a Walmart day cab I assumed it was a senior driver. But now I’ve seen ads for local spots out of the Chicagoland area.

How does it work for you guys? Same as the road guys just local?

I agree. I did 80k my first year in trucking. Which was local. So it’s possible to get within that range. Doesn’t mean it’s easily attainable though. You gonna work your rear end off for it.

That is the about the range for our P&D drivers, so I do not think it is as unrealistic as others here impy.

I’ve seen the tractors for a few years now but this is the first I’ve seen the trailer. Koch foods in Melrose Park. Anybody else see em? I’m betting it’s at least 400k in this picture.

Their spotter jeeps are also electric. I’ve heard though the charge on the tractors don’t last long at all. Thoughts? Do you think this is the future or just going to be used by companies virtue signaling?

Have him take a look at Stron logistics out of Hampshire. Dayton Freight also has a big terminal in Hampshire. Usually a few trucking companies out of Rockford are always hiring. McMahon dairy out of Huntley could be an option also.

No idea what their requirements are or how busy they are but they are local.

What is your run now? Don’t think you’ve mentioned that yet.

Congrats Kearsey!!
