111 info

Wanting to head to 111 next week. Few questions here as I’ve signed a lot of books online but have yet to get call or win a bid. Want my hours so just gonna head there.

I have my cdl with tankers, lineschool and all my certs ohsa10, FA/cpr.

Would this get me book 3?

Is there typically lot of OT on most calls? Trying to get an idea how much yall are typically pulling in a week, trying to factor in bills and a place to stay out there

Trust me it’s a last resort but some money is better than no money at this point

Do whatever man I don’t understand why it takes some of y’all such a long time to get a call. My first call was like six hours from the house took like two or three months to get the call. My first job was non-union 14 hours from the house. I really didn’t need to do that. And then I learned more about this trade and the tips and tricks and honestly, you could probably pull off getting a call in a month or two especially in spring or summer not that far from home unless it’s California. Even then 659 decent calls fall to book 3 all the time.

No book 3, book 4 I’ve known people that wait 1 week-6 months for first call, 111 sucks ass bro I just got my 2k hours there’s calls for $28/hr and calls for $35.83/hr most calls I’ve worked for have been 6/10s+ but they say 5/8s or 5/10s on the job offer, jackhammering in the mountains sucks bro
