Being in restaurant business I'm the first to say jump, but from my experience 10 years ago in trucking I would stick it out for awhile. I jumped ship quick from Stevens because of emergency and was turned down by several companies. I was on my way to JB Hunt who had horrible rep at the time and found a small company Cooke out of Mt. airy nc. Good company but put me right into team driving first day and off I went. I would get Teddy back and run. If its absolutely horrible before next hometime, well I would def consider changing. I know others would not agree but sometimes enough is enough. At least stay long enough so you can jump right into a truck and not have to retrain. Swift sounds pretty good though. Ok coffe kickin in and I'm rambling 😝

Several companies. Two local-Mtn River transport, Wla inc. Millis also.

I could go into even more detail, but it's just too much to put on here. Two years ago I blacked out from exhaustion and was taken to a small town hospital. At time I was working in a kitchen 90-100 hrs a week, about 27-30 days straight I went down. Hospital wouldn't take that as an answer to the problem. You wouldn't believe some of things they came up with.

Stevens will ram safety down your throat, which is a good thing. You will hear negatives about them but I liked working for them. You will spend a lot of time in good ol' Texas. If I wanted to spend 6-8 weeks at a time out in the road I would consider going back.

Best of luck! Sounds like they have a good school in CO. If you do orientation in Dallas it's a lot thrown at you at once. But it's a lot of fun.

Hit submit. I never admitted to either. Wife was w me at time and backs me up. Just have a 60-90 wait to see if they will fix it.

For the juicy part it claims I admitted to having a history of anxiety and intravenous drug use. I was in er for blacking out at work 2 years ago, due to exhaustion. Worked 27 days straight avg of 14 hrs a day. Working as chef in newly opened restaurant.

I would bring it. Most companies want a copy for their records.

Any one taking a recent physical have to give access to their entire medical records?? OR? Have to sign a release for the company you are hiring on with to access them.

I recently had my records pulled and their are some discrepancies. It will take 90 days or more to fix. i knowof a few companies that have a release form you have to sign within their app. Just wondering.

This is just a memory, when I worked for Stevens 10 years ago, if you wanted a few minutes to breath you didn't send Qualcomm msg you were done at receiver or you would receive immediate instructions on where to go next. Run run run. But that's the reefer business also.

When I was with Stevens ten years ago, their sponsored training was Dallas and Houston only. Write the diary!
