    Sounds like the place i just left :biggrin_25523:

    Do they use Trip Pack or Trans Flo ?

    What is the dead line for getting the paperwork to them ?

    My last checks from the place i left were

    0.00, 277.00,289.00,691.00,126.00

    This trucking is a tough row to hoe

    My gut has always told me Western Star is a 2000 miles per week outfit.

    But its still a raise over where i was. :biggrin_2559:

    they use trippack there deadline is friday and paid on the following monday i had only one trip that week for 1100 miles x .36/mile = $396 i had $300 in lumper fees which they said they did not get the receipts in time ti reimburse me we will see next week , I did take a $100 cash advance so that is where the rest went so actually i would have gotten a check for about $80 once taxes were taken out

    Amen...:yes2557:

    All trucking companies are alike in that respect...the trick is to find one

    where you can keep as far away from the 'suck zone' as possible

    and not wind up caught in their company politics and the burden it

    invariably places on the drivers
