They have the worst equipment,and you will break down constantly. They expect you to lump loses for free, if no lumper is available. They will not pay you any detention,even though in some cases they collect it(I once sat at a dock 7.5 hours on the pickup,and 9 hours on the delivery for a total of $50 which was pickup and drop fee plus mileage. If you break down, no breakdown pay or layover when dispatch cannot find back hauls out of California for days on end(I waited six days once for no pay). They expect you to"work"your logbook to they're benefit. If you have a DOT level repair that needs to be made, they'll just tell you to deliver the load,and worry about it after. If you ever refuse a dispatch due to HOS, or truck maintenance issues, they will just fire you and make up stuff on your DAC.

Ouch that is kinda sad that a company will resort to such underhanded tactics as the old saying goes though "what comes around goes around" and sooner or later we hear things about companies going broke or bankrupt and it would seem its just a matter of time before something like this happens to these guys.

When did you guys work there?? I think it's a lot better now they have brand new equipment and the dispatchers are great guys to work for!
