    Seem's Like iWill have to go With another Reefer Company because iKnow my uncle payments was 575 a Week but things have went way down South. And iRefuse to be put in a Situation like That. How Are You Suppose to Make Money and pay truck Note and Fuel. Thats a Shame and I Really Have My hopes set on Driving For KLLM. But if Thing's Are Gett'n That Bad in The Summer Time can Only imagin How winter Will Be. do You Believe things Will Get back to Moving ? And yea im Really Think'n Heavy about it Now for Certain. It's Sad Cause from what ive seen from being out there KLLM was a All Around Good Company. Wonder how Romans Doing just cant Believe the Miles have went down to where you can't even eat literally. Do they not have the freight?

    Boy are you right. After reading what RT has to say about them I sure as hell wouldn't give them the right time of day.

    And as of now -

    I checked my truck into the shop in Portage at 10am yesterday (Monday) and it has YET to be touched (6:20pm Tuesday). I'm told that they can get to it TOMORROW.

    48 hours sitting just to get a simple PM and APU repair plus most of tomorrow shot while they work on it.

    Just something to think about.....

    Interesting reading eh Jarhead?

    Amazing....... how do they expect anyone to make a living and pay KLLM's truck note by sitting on their ### for 3 days? I don't know about Portage, but I heard they cut back on mechanics in Jackson, and that the newer mechanics they are hiring are either unqualified or newbies who just got out of school. Almost sounds like they are not only trying to get minimum wage drivers, but mechanics as well.
     
    trucker43 and Jarhed1964 Thank this.

    Portage let quite a few of their mechanics go as well from what I am hearing.

    Yeah, absolutely FASCINATING/DISTURBING/SHOCKING reading!

    :biggrin_25511:


    So, I suppose it would be out of the question for those morons to allow you to run and grab a PM at TA or some other shop?

    It amazes me bow much people will talk without thinking it through. RT you should know since you have been with te company longer than I, that KLLM doesn't have mechanics at portage.... They are all thermo kings staff... Yes they service us due to contracts but they are on TK payrolls....
