    How does a person get OFF your calling list? You guys even told me it was illegal to talk me me since I am under contract with CRST, yet you call my home AND my cell at least once a day? If you cant talk to me why do you keep calling? Is this not borderline harrasment? Guys if you have a legal issue that prevent you from talking to a driver STOP FREAKING CALLING!!!!!!!

    :biggrin_2553: Well JB chomping at the bit again,, well let me tell you something lame brain I worked for your so called company and I don't think any of you can spell the word truth. Oh yea when you get that phone call for the so called dream job, they roll out the red carpet and you honestly believe this is what you have been looking for. I have a friend who at one time worked for JB calling up future prospects and giving them the same line of crap. He decided to give it up before someone put a knot up side his head. He told me they all pretty well read off the same page when recruiting a driver. They, and I use the word they alot I don't want to leave anyone out, always over book the classes because some drivers are a no show.

    The reason for this is to cover there butts for positions available which are far and few and make shure there covered. The class I attended everyone showed and the scramble was on to either eliminate drivers or do the shuffle or side step to get things back on line. To sum it all up this company will more then likely find some poor sucker that will believe all the hype and take it hook line and sinker. Things will never change at JB until drivers wise up to the bull and tell the recruiters to stick it where the sun don't shine.

    Come on guys. There MUST be a way to stop the annoying phone calls from JoBHunt. Try calling up your Attorney General's office and let him/her know what's going on. This is almost akin to stalking, in my opinion.

    Got another one this week while I was gone. He left a message on the answering machine. Said he was calling about my recent application and that he had openings up in my area. My wife left the message on thinking I may have put out applications.

    Jb Hunt just royaly screwed me. I took a physical and have a condition that I have a release a month old. PA would not take it :biggrin_25514: I go home and get a new release, told I can come in and get my med card and truck I said great. I call my scheduler and he says midwest regional is closed you have to go OTR. Told them to go to hell. I am going local now and never going back out on the road.

    TJ, welcome to the club. You've become yet another victim of JoBHunt's B & S scam. Sure, maybe they were telling you the truth, but they didn't try to fit you into the job they originally promised you, although it didn't take long for you to get the form you needed. I say it's a club, but it's really a huge herd. Maybe all the guys in your situation could start some sort of newsletter and distribute it via the New York Times Sunday edition.

    Yeah, I give 'em a little slack, but understand that under the surface, I think they were lying to you all along--there never was any midwest regional position you could get. They used that lie like a carrot to sucker you in. I assume you actually made it to the orientation and you didn't get the check-up outside the outfit.

    Now I wonder if they look at your situation as some sort of 'abandonment'. If so, watch your DAC for DACballing.

    I got them to stop calling me with alittle help from a buddy in my local Police Dept...
    Keep track of the time and dates of the calls..
    After 4-5 be sure to use caller ID and have the Police call that number to advise of harassing phone calls..

    Well, to be fair, it may have existed but only for a day or two. To get a job like that you have to be able to start tomorrow.
