[QUOTE="Route 66, post: 1622063, member: 40816"] It definitely is a far cry better than being a courier at DGO. I did that for several years as well. It wasn't so bad "back in the day", but all I have to do is come on here and read about all the crazy crap going on in that world today, and I feel grateful that I made the jump over to AGFS and the RTD world when I did. Don't get me wrong, it still sucks - it just sucks less (and pays a bit more)...Not nearly as much BS. Just remember one thing - accidents here are just as unforgiveable as they are at the DGO, and putting a scrape at the assend of a 53' trailer incurs the same consequences as it will by putting one on the rear bumper of your courier van. You didn't mention what your driving experience is, but not everyone is comfortable driving a large tractor/trailer vehicle. Some folks never quite get on with it and return to the DGO courier arena (providing they don't get booted out due to preventables first)...Just something to consider. And FT RTD positions seem to be rare as hens teeth these days. You might have to be willing to transfer to another location to get one. [/QUOTE]
