    I doubt that. Knight seems to take pride in the failure of their drivers. Most of these starter companies aren't near as harsh as Knight.

    Good one Knight. Smaggs was actually recruiting drivers and you went and stiffed him out of an 8 dollar scale ticket along with his livelihood....one day at a time. Can you clueless retarded idiots do anything right?

    you still with them? .. as a new guy trying to get a sart. i am gald you posted alot of this. i'm to old to play the games dispatchers and crap drivers play. don't have the time for it. but I like you gotta start somewhere. looking for a year in. and hope they take care of me . but i see alot of post that show the opposite . lol guess its a wait and see. but your stuff. really gives the straight up facts that i should expect thanks. and hope things pickup for ya. stay in the race .....
    but Knight isn't my choice. going with Prime. but have low expectations so won't have many disappointments . but i hear good and bad so . who knows. guess ya gotta run the race to see for yourself

    :biggrin_25515::biggrin_25512: Things are not what they seem. It's all about making ends with these companies. Lot's of people getting trampled out here because of the need to profit and the current economic status.
     
    TennRider Thanks this.

    Do a little research, get some offers on the table from someone who will give you miles and NO LESS than .36/mi (should be looking for .38+ really). Give them two weeks notice, turn their truck in and grab a rental car to the next company.

    Don't throw any more money out of the window. You've paid your dues, broham. Time to get YOURS now.

    Smaggs, was your dispatcher Al Levine? This guy is such a joke. He absolutely has no idea what he is doing, and will never reimburse for anything.....:biggrin_2559:
