Through market research and surveys, WM has learned that the #1 reason they are having difficulty attracting new drivers is the slip seating policy, particularly with the sleeper cabs.
I wouldn't be ok with slip seating a sleeper. It sounds gross and like a lot of extra unnecessary work.

Slip seating a sleeper was thankfully something that didn't happen often. Most runs have an assigned truck, so if you won that bid for the year you had that truck for the year. But day drivers could use your truck on your off days.
"Extra board" drivers would sometimes have to switch trucks on a weekly basis. That's where the biggest complaints came from. WM provides mattress liners, and drivers are required to clean the truck upon exiting. And when I say clean, I mean super clean. These slip seat sleepers are immaculate.
However, I get it. I was never happy with split seating a sleeper. Thankfully I've been in my same truck for a long time now.

You just reminded 'usn's' that you RODE WITH G. Any way you could entice him back? Some of us know there's been a game changer. I'm not tagging GreyBeard ... LoL!
If nothing else; please wish him well. It SUCKS TO LOSE HIS WIT & WISDOM.
Thanks!

I have spoken to G Town in a while and I wouldn't feel right contacting him just to come back to the forum. I'm sure he has his reasons for not being here, but I don't want to pry.

Agreed.
G is doing well and made a conscious choice to back away from the forum. I respect that choice.
