    Reminds me of last weekend. I couldn't get any sleep at all. The entire night girls were beating my truck door down. Finally, I had to get up and let them out!

    I know drivers who would log entire time at shprs & recvrs as on duty. If your bumping alot of docks or going to grocery docks, that could take lots of time away from driving. Once these guys confirmed their logs they could not be changed.
    I also knew about drivers who complained about miles, but would complain about every load sent for some reason. In my experiences over half the drivers these companies hire now are misfits who would never make it through a normal interview process at a non-OTR outfit.
    Go to any large T/S & see what passes for a "professional" driver these days as they get out of their trucks.

    So what's up with all you fellows that continually pound on a guy that posts something negative about a company?
    If I were so inclined as to think that these very same companies hire trolls in their defense, then I might actually be a borderline (If not a full blown) conspiracy theorist, which of course, I'm not.

    That anyone that actually drives for any big mega is totally getting taken advantage of is no secret.
    Enough of the proper trip planning baloney; that's all an over rated excuse to put the blame on the driver.

    And enough of the "if it's really so bad then why don't you leave?" rhetoric as well.
    Of course drivers leave, as in nearly a 100% departure rate before a year's time; proper trip planning or otherwise.

    Thank God for the drivers that are reporting on these lousy companies; shower them with gifts and love.
    Hopefully, their posts can help someone else from making the same mistake.

    What the OP posted on this thread is all dead on; CFI is a terrible place to work. Period.
    Same goes for all the other big megas as well.

    To work the equivalent of two full time jobs for a whopping $40-$50 Grand a year (if even that) is hardly worth defending; any driver that would claim otherwise would truly be the one with the real issues.

    All I know is that about 25% of my loads could not be pu on time or delivered on time. But I didn't sweat it, I just put in my ETA to shpr or ETA to consignee & about 60% the time the load got pushed out or the rest got a new delivery date & I dropped it in the yard.
    These companies use load matching software so if you get a load that you can't pu on time you just communicate when you will be there. You might be the closest truck that is available. I never once got a service failure at any company, not 1. But if you have the hrs & say you are ready to roll & then say no & complain you will probably get one if they can't find anyone else to cover the load.

    So one can safely assume that you have worked for CFI, and "all the other big megas"? How else would you know that CFI is a terrible place to work?
    That's quite the career that you've had.

    In this case, we're fed up with the guy that posts 19,450,623 individual threads complaining about the same company.

    We get it. CFI sucks. You don't have to overload the TTR servers over it.

    u know one or two problems and maybe there screwing you after that either ur a dumb ### for stayin or maybe just maybe you and your work ethic are the problem surfer joe. This line of work is unlike any other run your truck do your job enjoy the view it works.Go back to punching. a time clock doin the same thing every day then. As for a true trucker we will stay doin what were doin regardless of what u say. And by the way in 23 years of truck driving the last time i made under 60,000 was 1999 if u know how to do this job you can make money driving for almost any company if u truelly arent then move on .Atleast when i change jobs i dont cry on here in 500 threads about last job
