    Its not all 30-60 DTP. I run bulk paid in 7 days from receipt of the originals. Freight pays same averages as flatbed van etc etc. Then again I can throw a rock and hit a hopper bottom load in my areas. Although I still have a flatbed bill at 48 days right now just waiting on the paperwork from the bank to file on that jerks bond if it hasn't been used up. If it has I'm headed to lenexa to collect from the shipper either way I'm getting paid today for my work. Just part of owning a company. Although this is probably the only industry where a driver is required to extend net 30 terms right out of the gate but doesn't get net 30 terms right out of the gate.

    Bad company, stay away from them. You make 2000 gross a week before fuel. Rod keeps 70% of the line haul AND some of the FSC and Stop pay. 50% of the time you are DHing BACK to GE in Grand Prairie. He charges 5.00 for Comdata with a 400.00 limit. He keeps the fuel discount and charges 15.00 for Transflo weekly.

    Bent Over, Make sure you file a wage complaint with the Texas Workforce Commission. I have done so and am awaiting the results. After that, I will review the other options that I have.

    I had issues with Rod and his company too.... I left do to having issues getting paid... Also in my short time there, I had issues getting loads... There was a lot of sitting and deadheading.... I averaged 2,000 miles loaded a week.. This is beyond unacceptable when not requesting time off...

    Beware: all good reviews are coming from the same IP address. Please read the truckesreport about this company and the threats from the owner.

    Maybe the bad posts are from people who have been screwed by this company and want to warn other potential victims. I'm only at 8 or 9 posts but I feel like I have helped other O/O's.. Besides I think that is the title of this section: BAD COMPANIES. Rig builder is right, the good reviews come from the owner using different names.
     
    Rigbuilder and mustang970 Thank this.
