Navajo Express - good or bad company?

Do you have some profound insight that the Crete driver was "bullyed" into running illegal?

 

I do NOT and I'm VERY sorry for implying that I did. But I used that response a LOT when ANY dispatcher tries it.... Sorta like "Remember the Alamo"

However, I DO know that it changed Crete's policies regarding logging in a DRASTIC way. Crete now regularly verifies what your log book says against the Qualcomm. Not on a 1 on 1 basis, but QUITE often.

And when that change was made, no notiice was given to the drivers. Guys that had been "fudging" for years suddenly found themselves sent home for a week or two, by piling up 15 safety points in a single log audit. This is what I was told by VERY senior Crete drivers. BTW, I *never* fudge my logbook; THAT can put you in state stripes, if you have a accident while out of 10/14 OR 70. Or if you are in a place other than where you say you are at a certain time.

But the "bullying" thing does go on at some companies, and I will park the truck and walk away if even so much as a HINT of it comes up.

Finally I CAN mention Crete's good and BAD points from a personal standpoint..... I've been with 'em twice.

Happy holidays

As a follow up to my prior message.....

The Navajo recruiter was a bit upset that I wanted to re-schedule my orientation until after the holidays. I apologize to her for being a pain-in-th-butt, but based upon the tone of her email to me (sorta snotty), I figured I'd gotten the answer I was looking for...... Navajo may have been a BAD choice for me.

However, I DO wish you all the best.....

Happy New Year to all!

 

Does anyone have any updated info on this company.. They seem pretty good.... Does anyone know the basics, the miles, hometime, equipment, where they run you,how they treat you, and do they respect you.. Thanks and be safe..

 

Do Navajo pay weekly and also do they pay on comdata?

 

I have been with Navajo since January and its not as good as it sounds trust me. When I signed on with them they told me I would be out from 10 to 14 day not 3 weeks at a time. Then when it came to me bein called into court they refused to send me home. They had me drivin as well when i was really bad sick. Then when it came time to get paid they took half of my pay for unknown reasons. When I asked them where the rest of my pay was they always told me wait till next week. NEXT WEEK NEVER CAME!!! They don't care about their drivers or take into consideration the families at home especially when there is an emergency at home. To put it plainly Navaho is a big joke. Don't believe anythin that they tell u cause its lies!

 

But do they pay weakly ?????
