J B Hunt got their abuse from growing in the 80's. They took a lot of freight from owner operators. But you have to blame Ronald Regan. He did deregulation. This caused the companies to offer lower pay, and without it. No company would have grown. We grew because of it and hated it because the pay dropped. Now J B Hunt offers some of the highest pay in the industry. Starting pay is 46 cents a mile. While other companies are charging only 38 cents. They also have the most trucks, the most freight and the best lanes. Benefits after 90 days are pretty good as well. I have been driving since 1980 and have seen a lot. I would go to J B Hunt in a min. The ribbing who cares any more. When your have to be out on the road you might as well get paid for it. It sucks out here but pays the bills. Why not work for a company that gives you paid time off, 46 cents a mile, enough freight to keep you going, and benefits that rival others. This sounds good to me. So the next time your laughing at a J B Hunt driver. He or she is laughing too, all the way to the bank. Just think, if deregulation never happened you would be driving for a hand full of companies, with no choices. Now you have a million choices. Why not work for the best !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think JB Hunt has come along way especially when it comes to accomodating family needs.
-
I also know that when you come on with the company if you had any prior events like vacation etc. they make sure that you can still be off for that time. I think that says alot in itself.
