    This company has NO integrity at all despite the back of their trailers saying "Integrity Driven". While working for these folks my family and i have lost everything due to their crap pay and equipment. In 8 month's with them my total net pay is under $17,000 this for someone with 13 years of safe driving to credit. Then for equipment when OTR if you have a break down that IS a SAFETY issue you are expected to "roll with it". To hell with driver health and safety even if they are breathing in exhaust fumes without realizing it until an exhaust flange ruptures. Expecting drivers to repair torn roll tarps(usually found on their grain trailers) to crawl along the edge of the trailer with a roll of duct tape. Broken speed sensor knocking out speedometer yet they still expected me to drive over 100 miles in inclement weather to their shop for repair, not to mention every state mandates that ALL MOTOR VEHICLES HAVE A WORKING SPEEDOMETER to be on the road. Now for the integrity facts. When told what my mileage rate would be I stated "Based on my mileage rate I will need to average 2500 miles per week". This was stated in a conference call between myself ,Dewaine Godfrey(dispatcher) and Mark Reeson(HR Director). My average was lucky to be 2000 miles per week. When addressing these concerns even with ownership (Chad Adams) I'm told just keep the wheels rolling. Then the topper they also have a dispatcher by the name of Tom whom had the balls to tell me "We have nothing to do with the way you get paid" Now I don't know about you other drivers but when I'm days away from my family driving truck its not because its a hobby but instead because I was DISPATCHED to that location. There's plenty more but for your families betterment stay away from STERLING TRANSPORTATION SERVICES OF BLAIR, NEBRASKA.

    All due respect...it took you 8 months to discover all this? Why did you continue to work there?

    Not whining just trying to prevent someone else from screwing up like I did.
