Tiffina had always heard good things about driving for Averitt and after joining our team, she has held multiple roles, including regional truckload and part-time local city driving. Now, as a dedicated driver, she is enjoying predictable routes and home time!
 

I've always heard good things  even when I was in CDL school.   I've always heard good things about Averitt, so  when I came I love truckload I like the fact   that we could stay at our service centers. My first experience as a driver wasn't a good one. It was pretty dangerous out there with the  other company trying to stay at truck stops   and at Averitt, you don't have to worry about  that. I felt more comfortable in truckload here, as a female. I honestly liked over the road I liked truckload. It's just at the time I had younger kids   and they worked with me to get me part-time city  in Chattanooga off the road so I could be there   for my daughter. But I needed something full-time  once she recovered from her accident so I had to   leave and then as soon as I got old enough to go  off to school and finish school, I came right back.   I remember the very first time I was in  orientation and Mr. Sasser came and he spoke about   how it's like a family and everybody's invested have profit-sharing. I just thought it was awesome.   The one run I pick up in Athens Tennessee  and then I bring down here because I'm out   of Chattanooga. I like knowing where I'm going  every day dealing with the same people every day.   I know approximately what time I'm gonna get off every day. Even over the road, you're home every week   always anyway possibly be home every week if you want to. I absolutely love it.   That's why I don't plan on going anywhere as  long as long as they'll keep me I'll stay.
