I was reading throughthese threads. Most of the time I just grave on info but I was reading so manyhorror stories from you guys and how awful some of these companies are to youand I thought I had to share my story.
I have been a driver for a very long time. I used to runwith one of the "big" companies. And then I got sick.
I was laid off and had medical bills piling up and wasreally in a bad place.
I was waiting at the drug store for a prescription when Istarted up a conversation with a young lady standing in line with me.
She asked me what I did and I told her I was a truck driverwhen I wasn't sick.
She was a really young woman, and I assumed she was still incollege or just out of school.
She told me that she ran a trucking company and that theywere always looking for good drivers.
She gave me her card and told me that she hoped I healedquickly.
Well that was 5 years ago.
I got better a couple months after that and tried to getback in with one of the bigger companies.
When I went to sign up with one, I was just so frustratedwith the new contracts that I backed out of the deal.
Sitting at my desk later on that night I came across that girlscard.
I thought "what the hell" so I called her.
It was around midnight and I thought I would get a voicemachine.
When I called, Lory, Picked up right away.
I apologized for calling so late and told her I would callback in the morning. She told me it was no bother and that she loved hearingfrom drivers.
Well, we got to talking and that conversation lasted 2 +hrs.
She was so sweet and honestly a very sincere person.
I took a job that night.
I have worked with Alpha E & L Transport for the past 3years and it has honestly been the best time in transportation and truckingthat I have ever had.
The dispatchers are always very sweet. No one has ever beenrude to me. I get paid when I get home. I have never had a problem with a loadthat one of the dispatchers didn't fix or try to fix. They are alwaysavailable. I am never alone out here, because I can call and they help withanything I need.
They know all my kids birthdays and send cards each year.They know mine and my wifes anniversary.
I got sick with the flu a couple weeks ago and thedispatcher found me a Dr's office and a hotel. They rearranged my loads so thatI didn't miss out on Money. They fight for every last penny for me and all of their drivers.
I also hardly ever have to sit anywhere. I get great milesevery month.
I go on the road when I want to and I go home when I wantto.
They only send me to the places I want to go- I never haveto do NY, NJ, RH, CT, FL, or anything on the west coast.
I got a really absurd ticket in MO and the owner, LoryHabibic, got me a great attorney and the whole thing was removed.
I can only say this, I am really happy with them. Anything Ineed they help me with.
With my health issues and how awful that whole experiencewas with my last company I am really grateful to have found a good company tohaul for
