Does this familiar to anyone truckers at this company..

bad attitude costs you $500, no way........

 

lol.............

 

First off the OP should contact the IRS and the IL state tax board to turn this company for for doing the 1099 scam.

Then secondly, he should photocopy that document and send it to the IL state department of labor.

In most cases contracts that have fines set up for employees are not legal even if they are signed, I'm sure the state DOL would find that page interesting.

It doesn't matter that the OP did not go to work for them, the company is violating several laws.

 

Tell them you will sign there's if they sign your contract.
My wife gave me that one.
They should have to sign off on paying for rude behavior to driver,
poor equipment,late pay,maintenance,
late night calls,not answering phone,rude dispatchers,poor loads.
You get the picture.I would love to see how they handle that.
You ask them to pony up,and see who flinches first.
I would also need more definition for some of those joke fines.
Company write ups,and sign offs should also have to sign your
version of how events happened in your opinion.
If they wont,then don't sign theres.Tit for Tat

 

I would need to get a second job to afford working for these guys,and fines

 

[QUOTE="Hang - Man";3923357]Thanks pattyj.
joseph 1135 you just started anew with your company --what kind of forms did you have to sign and what if any kind of fines or deductibles are on them ?
I just cant believe some of the stuff that's going on in "Trucking" and what some of these companies are getting away with.
I hate to say this cause i really dont like this organization, but i think someone needs to contact an organization like the ACLU.
To the drivers who sign a paper like that or did sign that actual paper swing by my house so i can dump a bucket of @#$%% on your head --same difference.[/QUOTE]
When I came back, I was here 6 years previously, I already knew the deal. And they aren't hard to deal with. There are some things that are "forgotten about" when you're a good runner. Anytime a company literally wants you to sign your life away, it's bad news. Some of those rules make sense, but to charge hundreds of dollars???? I think not. If you go out of route here, like you're going from Minnesota to Florida and decide to stop home in Ohio, they are going to charge you $1 a mile. If you get caught driving without a hands free device by the LEOs, you're paying your fine AND theirs. I knew this. But I have a Bluetooth so it is all good.

 

When I saw this I knew it had to be one of the 1099 trash outfits from Chicago. Sure enough I was right.

 

I really would love to see the DOT roll into Chicago and start shutting them all down. Most aren't legal at all, not even a little.

 

Rule#26 1500.00 for not giving a 15 day notice upon leaving the company,get real.

 

I like #25, $400 for littering.... each offense. So he fines you for that candy wrapper he found under the seat and you get mad and quit then he'll nail you with #26 and fine you $1500. So you cuss him out and get fined another $500 for a bad attitude. Dang, out $2400 over a candy wrapper!

I'm surprised he hasn't listed.... Punch me in the nose, $1000!
