Brinks Armoured Truck (OTR-Long Haul Driver)

Did the recruiter mention anything about the black helicopters to you?

 

Western does that too! They actually have armored tractor trailers! That would be a cool gig. Driving a big truck with bullet proof glass!

 

Yeah, but it's a bummer when you would like to roll the window down...

 

they wont tell you the specifics. you need to contact brinks.
to tell you the specifics thell have to kill you. Its for security reasons that it is not given.

 

I got the pun, but actully it's very warm/hot in there. The sun beats thru the glass and it seems like your in an oven.
I drove single axle trucks up and incl a big truck and we NEVER had our name on the side of the trl. We used to run from Western NY to Phil. or into N.J sometimes. When your in a "labeled" truck DOT always waves ya thru
Never did see one of them black choppers

 

i drove for dunbar, just with my class c, those things are so #### heavy they have zero suspension. obviously no windows, in fact no fresh air to breathe, they recycle old stale air, top it off with a very ###### ride and you'll get car sick real quick. they also polygraph you as well

 

The straight trucks can be real squirrely too.

The polygraph machine they hooked me up to looked like some antique from "The Rockford files". --Wood-grain, Heath Kit looking thing. Afterwards he said I failed a question regarding stealing from family members! Found out later from the other guys they were accused of the same thing! LoL. Two of us got a job, so the accusation must have been BS...

What I thought was interesting is before even hooking me up to the machine we went over the questions and how I was going to answered them. THEN he hooked me up and asked the same questions again.

 

I am the dispatcher for the Brinks OTR Tractor Trailerdivision.

What I can post is that it is a team driving position. Youwill have to be able to be able to obtain an Armored Car Security OfficerLicense. We pay you .238 cents a mile for every mile the truck moves weather youor your co-driver is driving. We start paying “down time” the instant you setthe park brake at every stop. Our average week is about 6000 miles. 6000 X .238= $1428 average + Down time every week you work.
We offer a 2 weeks on and 1 week off schedule. If you wantmore miles I will work you every week you want.
All of our trucks are on a 30 month lease so you won’t haveto deal with old equipment. Our trailers are slightly smaller and easier to maneuverthan most.
