    No Ken did not get fired....who else would get down on bended knees for ward. The state of California labor board is investigating Hendrickson for unfair wages but as far as I know there is no class action suit as of yet but there is always hope

    FYI The labor board or Labor commissioner is simply an administrative branch. They do not investigate companies. They simply bring the two party's and hear the evidence. Typically the employee is given 20 minuets to plead his case and the Employer is given 20 minuets to rebuttal or argue against the employee. then the labor commissioner makes some notes dismisses both party's. Then a week or two later the Employee and Employer receive the Labor Commissioners verdict.

    The Labor Commissioner does not handle class action violations everything they do is "One on One"
    The Labor Commissioner does not suggest or write new laws to help protect the welfare of employees again they are simply administrative.

    yes I did it is at home I will be there tomorrow and post it for everyone. They are trying to put an end to the unfair wages and hours the drivers are being made to work and I don't know for sure but this could lead to a full blown class action suite or maybe the end of ward and hendrickson the more people that come forwards with the info they are looking for the better.

    I called several state government offices today and the response is so typical "Ah, I don't Know"
    I look forward to getting some information
    Thanks

    While I certainly cannot speak to each of your specific issues regarding Hendrickson Trucking, I definitely CAN discuss my own experience with them. Quite honestly, I have never had any problems with this company at all. They pay a fair wage and have always kept me busy in the nearly 4 years I've been with them. The vast majority of the other drivers currently working for them whom I've had the opportunity to speak with share my opinion. So, I'm left wondering how accurate all these posts truly are? Sounds to me like a bunch of "wannabe" drivers couldn't hack it and now have nothing better to do than speak slanderously about a company that has been nothing but fair and beneficial to me in my own experience. Just my two cents. Be safe out there!

    But then you say


    Dang , if that is wondering. i would hate to see what you write when you have made your mind up.

    In your entire career at Hendrickson how many drivers did you survey to come up with such a definitive opinion? 50?100? When did you find time to drive?

    The fact that you describe a OTR carrier as fair who pays a piece rate that when all is said an done borders on minimum wage. Shows how utter naive you are to what is fair. Or you where so desperate and now happy to have a job, you don't mind getting bent over a barrel on a daily basis.

    Sir, your post is a complete fail. Or you bumped your head on the way to the keyboard. Just my 2 penny's.:biggrin_255:

    Are you sure You work for Hendrickson cuz SO did I, and while some of what is said is a bit far fetched for the most part it's true. I do not know who you are on bended knees for but you are on them if you say it's a good honest company.
