Update On New Millis Transfer Job
Topic 23857 | Page 4
That's great to hear. I'm just trying to make it another week without getting kicked out of Millis and starting my career.
I've heard good things about H.O. Wolding.
Are you still with Millis? If so, what's your opinion after a year?
Thank you
Haya, Mike D. Not sure if you are addressing this to Kevin, or whom. Grumpy drives for H.O.Wolding and always has; haven't seen Kevin pretty much since that post; sorry!

Yep, still with Wolding, and couldn’t be happier.
I work my tail off when I want, and can take off when I want (unpaid), which is nice since my wife gets 4 weeks vacation.
The only negative is that my dispatcher , who I have had an awesome relationship with, is moving to load planner, but I’m sure my new one will be fine.
Im hourly so I tend to run my clock out with less miles than an OTR driver being paid mileage, but just did 2400 miles in 4 days. My last load brought me home yesterday and they asked if I wanted to head back out Monday. I said Saturday AM would be great, so as soon as my 34 is up Ill be rolling again.
OTR:
Over The Road
OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.
Dispatcher:
Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager
The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.
I'm with millis too. Went through their school and did a diary here as well. I graduated the school in Richfield Wi in march of 2019 and been solo since May of 2019.
If you got any questions let me know.
I start tomorrow. Going to the hotel this afternoon.
