I dont need to give anyone permission...I worded that a little wrong. What I meant, if I screw that driver in anyway, Im sure he will tell everyone about it.
You know one of your own knows me very well from another message board ive been on for years. Ive never had a driver from there come back and say I lied to them either. Amazing huh? How you doing, Cybergal? Long time no chat! In fact a few months back she was the one who invited me here.
IT WASN'T ME!!!!!

As far as lying....once again, Im lied to by drivers much more than you are lied to by recruiters. Yet, you seem to lump everyone into the same group. Fact is that people in every profession lie.
As far as your description of recruiters....you seem to be steriotyping. Gee....you drivers dont seem to like when people steriotype drivers....wouldnt that be a little hypocritical of you? As far as lying, thats the fastest way for me to lose my job. It just takes one time me being monitored and me lying for me to be boxed up (fired) Have we ever had a recruiter here who lied? of course.....they are no longer with us. I figured out many years ago that the best way to succeed at this job is to be truthful about the job offered, that way the driver I hire will refer more drivers to me. Ive been doing this 5 years and Im one of the top recruiters here. As far as your discription of a young college graduate being a recruiter. Not even close. Our recruiters come from many different sales backgrounds. I would say about 2/3 are college graduates. And thanks, but many of us arent that young. Me personally.....Im 41 with a BS in aviation and an MBA, with a background in investment sales.
I tell you what....yesterday I got a PM from someone from this board. I set him up for OTR.....I am giving him permission to come out here and tell this board if anything I told him was a lie.
Steriotype? Every recuiter that has called here or if I want to be amused I call them (JBH) say the same thing. Can anyone say reading from a script? Recuiters may not bad mouth a driver but they sure bad mouth other trucking companies if it's in their best interest to talk someone into leaving that company to come over to them. As far as first hand knowledge of JBH and their practices go all I can say is we have been there and done that and have the T-shirt to prove it! JBH never in a million years! We are now just seeing daylight after almost becoming bankrupt. Being a company driver is bad enough but being insnared in their lease purchase program is a financial death sentence.

Cyber was pulled into it by Me's desperate act of discrediting this forum and or the mods we have. He failed. He throw any accusation out he could and it just showed him for what he is. If he succeeded in pulling anyone into the web of JBH's deceite I feel for that person but they will find out on their own what has been said about the actual experience a driver has with JBH is far different than the spheel a recuiter gives out.

Re: Bad-Boy JB Hunt Fires and Blacklists

Reply to roadkill439342:

I still believe that the OOIDA is the best friend a driver ever has had, however, as you clearly point out, the OOIDA cannot help every individual driver in all cases. In you first case where the carrier did not pay as required, I can only express my sympathy and suggest that anyone working for themselves has to know all the laws, regulations and rules before contracting a job. It sounds like the OOIDA did help a little, but could not get the carrier to act more quickly on the matter. In the second case, I do not know how you can hold the OOIDA responsible in any way for the RIGMASTER equipment failure, they only printed paid advertising for RIGMASTER and had no other involvement. Blaming the OOIDA in the second case would be like blaming a TV station or a newspaper for printing or televising an advertisement where the advertised services rendered or merchandise purchased by you went bad. In these cases the OOIDA, TV station or newspaper are just the "paid messengers" for the company who is advertising the products or servcies. In any case, it sounds like you still belong to the OOIDA and you should be commended for that. You have been though a lot. I hope your luck has changed for the better.

Hell, that's nothing. I read somewhere on here that JB's recruiters have even went so far as placing calls to CRST's breakrooms.

Re: How I KNOW you suck, J.B. Hunt

OK Whispers 65233.But what I am trying to figure out is this.My wife has never driven a big truck,has no CDL,and has no qualifications for trucking.However she is a great quilter,which has absolutly nothing to do with driving a truck.Yet the recruiters at JB keep trying to hire her,promising big money,(mileage pay),nice dedicated runs etc.This is why I posted the ??? after JBH doesnt hire newbies.I would never consider a career with JB.I did get tangled up with Swift for a short time,and they are evidently the same caliber co.as JB.The old saying is,you cant teach an old dog new tricks,isnt always true.I am an old dog who quickly learned to get away from Swift.Now as you know I am looking forward to running with Roehl.Hope to run into or meet your hubby out on the road.
