from TalkCDL Trucking Podcast

A TRUCKER WITH ISSUES PLUS JOHNNY ACID. Recently a trucker applied for a job. He had 7 months experience and was getting paid .41cpm. He was offered .56cpm by the potential new employer. He was also told that the carrier has a lease purchase program and he could get on that program after a short time as a company driver. Orientation. The driver traveled over 1200 miles to attend the company orientation. On the first day of class, he displayed a very aggressive personality and demanded that he be put on the lease purchase program from day one. This did not go over big since the company had already told him that he would have to be a company driver for a short time before entering into the lease program. This was about to be a problem. Tune into the lates podcast to hear the results of this situation. Lease purchase drivers can make allot of money if they run their truck correctly. But fort they must prove to a good company that their truck will be profitable. If they have not been part of a successful lease program in the pat, they are most likely to fail where ever they go. A good lease driver must always be on time with their deliveries. They must not take too much time off and they truly should not be refusing loads. Let's break this down. If a lease driver is not on time much, he will cost the company and himself money. Many late deliveries come with a late fee which the carrier will pass onto the driver. If a truck driver takes too much time off, they cut into their profit and ultimately the companies profit. This will not work with many companies. If a driver refuses loads they are losing money and so is the company. The reasons outlined above are just simply the why carriers do not like to hire drivers that do not have a proven track record when it comes to leasing. The driver with 7 months experience acted like a typical person that thinks they know everything. He wanted to start at the top being that is where the bigger pay checks are. In the end, this driver was put in a company truck and hopefully he will learn. Tune in to this weeks podcast and hear the story behind this.
