KKW a big disappointment

Be sure to tell your husband to be careful how he separates from the company, And he may want to ask "How long of a notice does one need to get out of here on good terms/" Meaning How does one leave this establishment and not get dings on their DAC report for something they never did in the first place, I highly recommend he have something to go to rather then leaving and then finding something, first he isn't going to have an income and second he is going to need to fill the gap with something so he can account for the 3 or 10 years previous. What happens when it is 60-90 days before another fish bites, I have skipped through this thread, how much time does he have in? If he is under a year he will be bagging groceries at your local grocery store rather then driving a truck, Because a new employer is going to see his "I quit" and wonder if they are his next EX employer if an issue comes up... I'm just speaking from what I have seen happening to guys I know. But whatever he does good luck!

 

Payroll issue's happen all the time. Some time on purpose and sometimes on accident. I was shorted this week for covering somebody else's load, and was promised I'd get 50 bucks, but I guess the dispatcher never let payroll know. So even though I put it on my trip sheet. It wasn't paid because dispatcher failed to put it in the computer. I could call pay roll and cry about it, but I won't. That week was only a 1500 mile week because they were looking for loads to get me home so even an experienced guy of over 14 years and making .40cpm will be looking at probably $300 or less after tax's and child support are taken out.

As most stated earlier. Never count on getting detention. The company can only pay the driver if the shipper or receiver pays them. Now I'm sure the trucking company might pocket that money if they do get it and tell the driver they never got it, but that's just what one comes to expect after driving awhile. I hope he doesn't call it quit's. Just after one company. If he enjoys his job and is a safe driver. I'm sure others will give him a chance, but he might have to go out a week or 2 with a trainer since he doesn't have 6 months experience.

Now if you guys are fed up with the industry then we all understand. Hope you guy will find what you are looking for in the future. God bless

 

Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.

 

Wishful, contact me, my company's hiring right now. Send me a private message how I can contact you guys.

 

Also for best results don't quite right now and if he is give a formal notice.

 

You guys contact me me a call I'll see what I can do for you.

 

Hey wishful sorry I didn't read the last of that last message, good for you guys I hope the best.

 

Wishful - sorry about your husbands experience especially because he is new to the industry. I work for KKW (since 1987) - just want full disclosure. I realize it's too late to change your mind about the company, but it was just too hard to read the thread and not respond.

Are we perfect, nope. I've taken an inventory of some of the frustrations that your husband went through and we'll be doing an internal review to try to make it better for the next person.

PS: If your husband has expenses that he hasn't been reimbursed for, please private message me and I'll look into it for you.
