    yeah, i've been puttin in online apps for over a year and never hear anything back. there's not a phone number up here in pa to call them. basically it looks like a "don't call us, we'll call you if we're interested" type of thing. i've heard they are good to work for.

    Isn't that a rental/leasing company?
    The guy's regular truck was in the shop?

    Best job I ever had was driving for Ryder,averaged $25 to $26/hour,paid by the run,all out and back dedicated 5 day a week automotive run,home nightly.

    Ryder Integrated Logistics actually employs about 5,000 drivers,and the Ryder Corporation employs about 25,000 to 30,000 people.

    I was there from 2004 to 2008 and got laid off due to the automotive slowdown.They are into many other industries though.I was offered a transfer,but didn't want to move.Once you are employed there you can request a transfer anywhere there is an opening,they are in many foreign countries too.

    The account I was on figured their runs at 45 miles per hour,I had a Cleveland,OH run that paid 11 and1/2 hours and I could do it in 8 and1/2.They pay you for any and all accessorial time(breakdowns,waiting for your switchout,pre and post trips,delays at docks after 1/2 hour,etc.)

    I had electronic logs in my truck and loved it.They have a "captain of the ship"policy where you can't be fired for refusing to run in bad weather.They are very safety conscious,paid uniforms and boots,good and inexpensive insurance.

    Any more questions just ask.
