    No idea, brother. Small claims court maybe? Logbooks are legal documents so they should be admissible as evidence that you were working. How long did you work for him? Did you notice these problems pretty quickly?

    Boston Bill, if you would like more truthful information, please contact the Company and ask to speak with any driver. We will be happy to inform you of the good and bad.

    I have been with Quickland for two years. My truck has never failed an inspection nor have I, due to illegal logs or paperwork issues. I run legal with an e-log, am GPS tracked, as is the entire fleet, yet can manage to run 3000 miles a week with no problems. Our Company maintains a High Safety Rating and CSA Score, and passed a recent DOT Audit. I operate in the US & Canada, average $.55/mile on all miles, and home every two to three weeks, and carry my own Occupational Accident Insurance. We are an LLC, which means the drivers are Members, and under NY State Law, Members of an LLC are recognized as Partners and therefore, not required to carry Worker's Compensation. If a Driver wishes to carry it, by all means, it is made available at the cost to the Driver. This is also the case regarding Health benefits. If a driver wishes to acquire benefits, arrangements can be made at a cost to the individual driver. I have had two problems with Payroll; in both cases, I was actually overpaid! I am paid for the work that I perform, minus cash advances and personal expenses that I borrow money for.

    Thus speaks the company suck up Its interesting that he calls me lazy when he doesnt know me im the exact opposite but anyway lets elaborate on some of andrews finer points like the llc part that is what your employer will do when he wants to slink around paying workers comp and disability I like how he says no one else would give me a chance um okm I called that sleazy company thinking it would be an opportunity working from close to home to earn a decent living based on the initial conversations w a hole and at one point when the boss was swearing at me like a fool I told him he needed to speak to me w respect and proffesional demeanor he thought that was funny ive earned my respect im a veteran of the US NAVY 98 2000 dd982 always worked. hard and I was brought up to believe that you show everyone respect obviously unlike either one of the aforementioned pigs this I drove across the country w this andrew moron and he did all the daytime driving and I drove all night and than he would blab on his phone literally for hours in the annoying long island accent that sounds like he possibly skipped a few grades of grammer school Flatbed is easy and yes dirty if that dipsniffer knew me he would know that I build w rocks and do harder work than he could ever do im just not working for a guy that leaves me feeling like im going to end up in jail many people who were standing in my shoes would have broken the guys jaw ive been down that road thats why I walked away lucky for him hey I just reccommend find I legitamite company dont waste your skills and time their if you want to give it a shot let me know how it goes

    The purpose of my last post was to confirm that dirtyhog is, in fact, who I thought. Thank you for mentioning my name, information from training, and your background. Now we know who the owner of this line of defamation and slander is. The great thing about technology is that this entire post and its content can be saved off line and used for more beneficial purposes. The question now becomes how to proceed. Thank you Dirtyhog and I wish you great success in future endeavors.

    You must have dug out your dictionary because your using words that are well beyond your obvious educational background I can offer some benificial things for you to do with the information 1 believe that other drivers will take heed and not waste time or effort w such a scumhole operation 2 understand that this medium is excellent for drivers to communicate potential employment mistakes 3 remember this is america land of the free and its our right to freely express ourselves 4 realize that it will discourage good people from getting involved w a sham 5 hope that more people who have been adversly affected by their experience there will come forward and speak up 5 and most importantly shove it up you #$% you only think you know me little ignorant one good luck sucker

    You are protected by NY state and federal wage laws. It's illegal for any employer to withhold any pay without prior written agreement between both parties. As in damages, penalties, etc.

    I don't know where you dreamed that up but I am responding so other readers can see the facts. If you tell them where to run and they drive your equipment they are employees. The only exceptions are contractors operating under their own authority. LLC doesn't release you from employer responsibilities. Do they have their own FEIN? Are they free to haul other people's loads? Please read this. NY specifically addresses transportation employees. It is also covered under federal law.
