No, it simply speaks to what companies will stoop to. Any idiot will do and they treat them accordingly.

Well I got my first week under my belt. I think I got very lucky as far as my dispatcher goes and the support from are other terminal in indy. They keep me moving, never had to sit and wait for a load assignment, always had a pre-plan. I could get used to that. They did start me out with short runs my first day and then let me go. I could not be happier at this point. I had great miles for my first week and wouldn't you know I got a load that dropped anytime Saturday about 20 miles from the house and I needed a reset. I got the feeling this was not by accident. There were phone calls made to the shipper to push back the pickup time so I could be there later. That says a whole lot about the company and people who work here. Well take care and be safe.

Oct,06 they put an apu on 2 and half year old truck.
March 07, they sent me to Wis to the home office, to get a new truck. I aksed why, my truck only had 395,000 miles, oh we sold it. I said you just aput an apu on it, we sold it with the truck.
So they got thier money back.

Yes we do. All the trucks have pre-pass. I do have to say that are safety rating sure makes things nice. I was called into a scale in ohio. The officer came out and looked at the long line of trucks and pulled me and a crete driver out and sent us on are way. The officer did give us a head shake and smile. Thank you Gordon.

Yes they do. I am not sure of the dollar amount. They do have to stay with the company for a period of time.
