    Because I have another trade and passed up maybe 20K worth of work to stay with these guys. I could have gone on unemployment after my last job and made almost as much as this company was paying. But I'm not lazy. Now I have no income.

    So, what are you going to do? Are you going to wait on the lawsuit or look for a job? It seems to me your looking for a big Payday.

    Ok I'm just going to erase this thread. I haul natural gas, crude oil, oil, propane, all types of fuel and acid. So haul your dirt and merchandise. I have a bit more responsibility than all of you.
