    We had 2 trucks leased to B-N, had a great dispatcher, made good money, never had a later load with either truck. Then the owner retired as Pres, put his daughter in the top spot, and every bad thing you're reading has happened since she started sending out her daily Qual-Comm messages from "the President" - We pulled one lease in Dec, 07, and our son stayed there until he lost his truck, this year. His paycheck for the last time out was $34.00. I understand she has implemented all these "little dictator" rules for company drivers, too. So you're probably seeing a company on the decline.

    Hey thanks Eaglerider for your posts!! Now the SECRETS on BARRNUN are out on this wonderful message board and this gives a drivers(like myself) a chance to read and realize this is some of the CRAP that really happens with these truck driving companies...while the rest of us are busy working,eating,sleeping and we have no idea until we read these posts.Thank You!
