    Can any of you Coke drivers tell me about your experience driving for this mega cold drink company?
    I was really excited to get the green light here,but this may very well be the worse place I have
    driven for.
    Careful what you wish for..you might get it!! I'm running my 14 out daily,and hardly ever get my 10 hr.
    No logging as they some how get away with it? I'm like Einstein telling the drivers what were doing isn't legal.

    The warehouses have all the pull over the drivers,and dictate how we run.Before you ask,Im not telling
    where I'm at,until I find another job.This is just insane driving,and hope someone can help.
     
    rabbiporkchop and Lonesome Thank this.

    I would rather bang out 600 miles than hoo/in hook,red light,and repeat.
    It is,but I would have to say, you could only get the benefit of how its ran by running it.
    Its constant HIGH traffic runs.

    You should relocate somewhere near Dunbar WV. Coke and beer trucks spend a lot of time parked on the train tracks there. It seems like easy money.

    I'm not fighting driving,or rolling over,Im just blown away at how the warehouses control the drivers .
    I just want to know if any coke drivers have this issue? I will put my driving up with anyone.I keep the door closed,but when I'm done,IM DONE!!
    Were all supposed to stay legal,regardless of what our employer wants,and I can say I'm not getting it with Coke.
    Drivers get no respect here.Some dude on a fork lift will own you..
