    This one is easy.....
    go to.....
    http://www.hillshirebrands.com/InvestorRelations/CorporateGovernance.aspx
    (Sara Lee is now hillshire)

    Download and read Global Standards for Business Partners.

    Search for Specialized Express violations to their standards.

    Bring it to the attention of Hillshire and demand a resolve.

    (Beginning of Rant)

    Enough is enough with these people. If Hillshire and the others really believes in their standards they set forth for themselves and their contractors they will rid themselves of these people.

    I myself can't believe that they have not managed to infect every load they haul with salmonella poisoning with their policy of stabbing the food with a temperature gauge load after load with no cleaning of the thermometer in between. And lets not forget they haul produce out of El Paso (in other words Mexico) If the FDA only knew.

    It amazes me that Doug and Marci are not in jail or at the very least fined out of existence.

    Specialized Express is a public health hazard in both the food they haul and their equipment on the road.

    I just got on here a week ago. I got a new 780 volvo ,but it had close to 20,000 mi on it which threw up red flags to me. Marci told me these are all new trucks she just bought. Anywho anyone still here as a coldliner driver. After all these post im terrified of what is to come. I only found out who they use to be once I got to orientation which was all over the #### place. Doug did seem like an ####### . Idk about these folks.

    So like I just started here at coldliner express which use to be Specialized express. I have a 2017 780 volvo fully loaded. I wish I found out about these folks before I came here. So far im a little sketchy about them. I dont5care for Doug at all something about him rubbed me the wrong way. Anyone here that is a current driver for marci and doug? Seems like they are full of #### to me something at orientation just rubbed me the wrong way. They seem to be all over the place constantly fighting with each other. If anyone still working here can let me know what my future holds I would greatly appreciate it. Bulldog out

    I would go with my instinct
    This douge guy sounds like a manipulator and Marci will be friendly enough to get someone to drive her money makers
    .... I wouldn't waste my time on something like this bulldog

    Uh oh....
    Well keep a good attitude and try to steer through the BS , sounds like you're gonna have to keep an eye on these people but don't let that get you down, make the best out of it and keep your eye out for options,
    unless you already made too many bad bets on worthless trucking companies and have to stay with them for awhile to clean up your work history
    This is why it's so important to take a good hard look at the company before diving into a bucket of %@#&

    I have a great record I can drive for many companies. I didn't know who they were before so that made it hard to research them. I have a positive attitude they haven't done anything to me yet so till then I'm going to keep trucking. Is there anyone on here that is still here or has left since they have become coldliner?
