    People who won't stand up for themselves deserve no sympathy from me or anyone else IMO. Victimhood is NOT a successful life 'road map'. Perhaps you disagree?

    No one is asking you for sympathy. All this person did was post about the company. Apparently the O.P. did what he felt was necessary FOR HIM, to make a bad situation better. That may have been his way of standing up for himself. Now, I’m sure a lot of people may not agree with that and that’s ok, but that’s his life and his decision to make.

    Avoid 'pathological altruism'.

    I’m not a big fan of Ayn Rand because I’m in favor of being altruistic. I think in the final analysis, as human beings it is in our best interest to be altruistic. Something DK Express obviously doesn’t acknowledge. In this case, Kants “Categorical Imperative” would be appropriate.

    When the paydays stop then so does the labor

    No one has an argument beyond this point.

    Words to live by.

    That short stint I did with an O/O his 1st check wouldn't clear. I sat right across the street from the bank until he brought me cash. Never had another problem with a check from him. Guess he realized the labor stops if the pay isn't there.

    This happened to me once in Illinois for the company refuse to pay for the last pay I hire lawyer that cost me $1,500 and it takes almost 5 months they end up paying for the attorney fees which is the 1500 on top of that they pay me the $3,000 they owe. I believe this gives them enough time to reflect kind of options what's going on they hired a lawyer to try to defeat the system but which cost them money and did end up losing I was hoping that they will not do this to the next driver but very unlikely they are vindictive evil people
