Hello all, new member here. I currently possess a CDL Class B and am interested in this position with this company. I have a few questions; does the company offer training for the Passenger and School bus endorsements required? Do I need a DOT medical card? Do they follow DOT regulations (8 hour rule) if I drive for another company currently and want to work for both?
I understand that the drivers are represented by ATU Local 1181. Do they fight for you? I know the drivers voted for a new contract last year, what’s the pay structure like? Ex: Starting pay and is there a waiting period for top pay?
Last but certainly not least, the schedule. Since it’s a union job, do drivers use seniority to make their schedule like school bus drivers or does the company work with the drivers for a set schedule? Is overtime mandatory?
Thank you, I look forward to your responses.
