    Dart keeps making me sit waiting on loads now I get to burn fuel and my lease payments, insurance, and other crap keep getting paid to them while I am on the road away from my family and friends 6 days a week I get paid less than a teenager at mc Donald's so that 1 day I get home I get stay home explaining to my wife why I can't take her out to a movie or supper because we're broke!!
    This is a warning don't ever work with dart !!!! Because the truly have more excuses why they have no loads than they have loads

    How long have you been with dart ? Has it always been that way ?

    I met a husband/wife team that were on their third lease.. We got to talking, they said they cleared 12000 a month,

    I've worked for Dart for two years. They are a fantastic company. The only time drivers sit around is if you are late on your loads regularly (I don't blame them for this practice, why give the load to someone who can't get it there?) or if you get in accidents and have to get a specific load to a safety office. What you are say can only be part of what's going on. What did you do to get any loads? 2 years and have never waited more than 12 hours for a load. Just like with all other company's, there are bound to be those who mismanage their time and want to blame the company. Dart is a great company.

    Also, you are leasing and having money problems but yet only work 6 days a week? Yeah, I'm sure Dart is the problem.
