The listing of the job is right in plain sight. You will be handling freight in different weather conditions thus includes the heat and cold in winter .. Basically you have to have common sense dress and prepare for the weather this includes having food and drink that is needed .

Pros

Great trucks Nice mileage Company vehicles- don't have to pay for fuel or a lease

Cons

Not alot of space for trailers to be repaired.. Waiting in line is a pain The lounge could use a upgrade

I thank Dollar General for the opportunity they gave me. They hired me without experience. I worked for 3 years at Fresh San Antonio. I never had any problems. I left for family reasons, but it is a very good company. The only hard part of the job is that you have to unload the truck, but you get used to it.

To make money in DG u have to be living in the parking lot be active and ready so actually there's no rest at all. If u do right no one notice it,if u do wrong everyone notice it????. I keeped my issued truck nice and clean breakdowns I only had around 3 that needed road assistance cause mostly I had 2 do my own repairs that where not to complicated so I can keep on moving cause that's the only way to make money. I worked in DG for 1year and a half I loved what I did there till the shouting started to come my way dispatchers using there power trip and forcing drivers to do what they think is appropriate to them and yes dispatchers mostly all of them are not truck drivers!!I tap out when shouting and there power trip started coming my way. And when u don't do what they want u will get small loads as a punishment!! And yes the job u perform there is physically demanding on both sides dry and fresh!!I was hired as OTR and along the way u do regional and local!!

Pros

Good equipment

They lie about pay. Working conditions are dangerous for both the driver and the employee at the store. And you better count your miles and look at the promises they give you…. ???? ➖ “NINE INSPECTIONS IN FOUR STATES FIND DOLLAR GENERAL EXPOSED WORKERS TO OBSTRUCTED EXITS, FIRE, ELECTRICAL HAZARDS; CARRY $3.4M IN NEW PENALTIES Since 2017, more than $21M in proposed fines for national retailer after 240 inspections” ➖???? https://www.dol.gov/newsroom/releases/osha/osha20230523-2 Working for Dollar General must be a nightmare. More than 18% of their trucks are taken out of service at Government weigh stations. ???? the equipment Their drivers are forced to use must be junk.❗️ Dollar General has some good prices and it’s rather nice to stop there when you’re traveling… DG haspretty much everything you need. It’s not as good as Walmart, but it’s more convenient. I notice their parking lots are small and I don’t see how Trucks can get in there at least full-size trucks…. But I have seen them there.

Pros

Dollar General stores or convenient if you want to stop and pick up some supplies

Cons

It’s not good to work for
