    1.Bust ur Er. your butt. What does this mean? They made you work hard or what?

    2.No privacy? Again;what does this mean? Camera in your sleeper or what?

    3. Snitches? How can someone tell on you if you only talk to people you know and trust within the company? How can someone "snitch" on you if you do your job?

    4. Dispatchers I guess I understand.That may be universal. :)

    Not picking on you O.P.- but if you want to help someone present your case..
     
    Lonesome and flightwatch Thank this.

    I also don't get the whole snitch thing. If you aren't following company policy then it's really your fault. If you have an issue with the policy your should decide if the policy is something you can live with, or if you need to move on. Perhaps there is a problem with your understanding of what actually happened, maybe it's not so much that someone snitched on you but rather your truck is a computer and they're monitoring the performance to determine your actions. It's hard for me to say, but some more information may help drivers determine whether or not they want to sign with Melton....not to be confused with Meltom.

    When he said snitches im thinken someone that will tattle over the littlest thing.In other words you worry about your job not mine.I can understand if they're braking a policy or the law.But if they have to go tattle because heaven forbid hes not parked exactly where the bobtails are parked and a tattletale driver dont have anything better to do but get that driver in trouble thats my deffination of snitching.Is this company a nit picking company?

    It's so hard to say without more information. I'd like to see much more information, I once had a driver that lived in Buffalo leave for Melton because he didn't like crossing the border. Never heard back from him so I assumed he liked there, I'd look into it but at this point I really don't care.

    I would like to know what the driver thinks a snitch is. I know some drivers that talk trash about their companies while being put up in the motel by the company. Then when someone tells the company about their actions they call them snitches. I want to know more.

    Just another cry baby with no real complaint . I worked for Melton 2.8 years i got plenty of complaints .Could tell all the dislikes i had and leave out the fact that i banked over 40k wile there . lol The snitches she talks about are drives being paid as safety officers and would only report dangerous driving and if loading with them and not following tie down procedures they would introduce themselves tell you nicely what the procedure was and if you were nice to them and did it the way the company wanted that would b the end no report . All in all not the best far from the worst .

    busting your butt is a good thing, the only thing I've seen that would keep me away from them is they tarp ev-ery-th-ing.

    Snitches get stitches and end up in ditches.
