    i worked for gray transportation for 2mo. and for those 2mo. i drove approx. 15,000 miles. my biggest problem happened during my last week and for this i am glad it was my last week. i was broken down in waupaca, WI in need of a drv shaft and for those 5 days leroy and darrin gray refuse to pay me. after i paid for my own transportation, drug screen, hotel, etc. they still will not pay for my 5 days that the truck was down. the reason that darrin gray(vp) gave me was and i quote "you quit, and to pay you after you quit is like throwing money into the wind" so i wouldn't work at GRAY TRANSPORTATION ever again, EVER. ps they make working fast food look good, said my wife. they said the avg drv get 2400-2800- miles per week, and i still have that email (to laugh at) and 1 of 8.5 weeks i worked at gray, i only got the avg once, most of the time was 1400- 1900 miles per week and this includes a 6 day work week. to make this post clear I WILL NEVER WORK FOR GRAY TRANSPORTATION OUT OF WATERLOO, IA EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND THAT IS A PROMISE some might say you gotta give them for time. to that i say work for them then contact me before you say anything otherwise i still wait to be paid for the 5 days i was broke down and i am currently taking legal action until then becareful my fellow drivers

    if you think that's bad ? I got put out of service because their cheap trailer lights went out then got fired at the time they had a policy that you could not be placed oos for any reason. john wayne gacy isn't the only psycho from that town, wait till you meet the owner.

    File a complaint with the labour board. If that fails file a small claims lawsuite. You quiting is no excuse for him not paying you. He won't have a leg to stand on in court.

    Yes I will say it is a must to stay away from GRAY TRANSPORTATION the a very unethical company that lies continuously to all employees not just drivers and want to always keep serious issues hush hush.. Yes gray transportation DOES HAVE A SEVERE BED BUG INFESTATION IN THERE TRUCKS I know this is a 100% guaranteed FACT THEY wanted all employees to keep it hush hush so no drivers found out cause if the drivers found out they have a legal right to refuse to drive which in turn will make grays go under do to the fact that grays HAS to pay you your unemployment if a driver refuses to drive due to this issue so please all and any gray drivers beware and absolutely do not let them put anyone else in your truck as I know they love to do cause 98% of there whole fleet is completely junk

    There are quite a few companies in Northeast Iowa.....and Gray Transportation is well known for being the absolute worst of the worst---equipment, miles, home time, break downs, rudeness, unorganized, you name it; their reputation is well known and beyond repair.
