LW Miller - All that glistens isn't actually gold.

It's unbelievable that someone this dissatisfied with their job would stay for "many years"! If Dan in safety is the only person you could feel comfortable working for you'll find him working at a truck driving school!
I've been here in LIVESTOCK for over 8 years and have never been more happy with a company! Maybe if you learned to do something more than swing doors and drop trailers you could rise above the entry level of trucking!
To post such negativity about your employer (some of which could spur a DOT audit) is so tasteless! If you're not happy go try Swift or England! You didn't do your coworkers any favors.

 

I remember years ago when the dispatchers at Miller were selling dope to the driver's lol

 

They must have quit. Last time I loaded with them in CA going to Colorado I loaded with 5 of them. I loaded last and beat their first guy by 2 hours lol.

 

Is there still life here i'd given up on getting any one to respond i guess not to many drivers at LW's know about this web site? I wonder how Max is getting along i heard he'd gotten some special award for being the safest driver he must be getting close to retirement age now.

 

I start in their Tanker division Monday. I got to meet Jesse, Rex, and 2 other Gents, whom I can't remember lol, on Wednesday.
looking forward to it. They seemed pretty nice

 

Wow tanker division i tried getting a transfer to the tanker div in SLC however we needed to have a hazmat endorsement which we couldn't get on a visa. The SLC depot was pretty good they had a great drivers room with shower and lounge room which usually was very quiet the only down side was trying to sleep in the yard breathing in all that soot from the FlyJ refinery was not pleasant.

 

Yes

. TFU AND LW
screwed us over. Don't judge me for taking my family over either, it was what we wanted and worked out well. There were 2 of us with kids.i had already lived and worked in the USA for many years b4 LW. LW were not the best company and were very deceitful and dishonest with the greencard as were TFU. TFU made alot of mistakes that hurt quite a few guys in all the companies they associated with

 

I was trying to figure out what/ who TFU was then it finally occurred who you were referring to, personally I never had any issues with TFU however I understand some of the guys that were applying for the Employment based green cards did have a few issues as far as I know, not sure how many actually applied for Green cards, I only know of two that did get them, one was Max who I met again on one of my visits back to Logan in 2011 he said it took him 7 years to get his green card and I went to see an immigration lawyer as I was considering the E2 visa option to start up my very own transport company and inquired about the green card sponsorship and the attorney was wondering how persons on a H2B visa qualified for a green card, and said only one other person got green card because he happened to marry a US citizen. I lost interest in the green card once I found out you had to stay with the same company for at least 2 years or you'd lose the green card sponsorship so it was conditionally based which means they could treat you however they pleased knowing you could not go anywhere else. However personally I never had an issue with LW's always got paid on time always had good equipment, generally the dispatchers were good to deal with barring one individual if you know whom I'm talking about hint, hint wink wink nudge nudge. TFU were not qualified immigration attorneys and LW's should of hired proper immigration attorneys not TFU.that was part of the problem.
