    any stranded Arrow Drivers may seek help from Raider Express Driver they may run into on the road or at stops as far as getting a ride within our means. If we can we will try to get them home or to a spot near home for the holidays.

    From what somebody said about Raider here I'd be afraid if I took a ride with one of their drivers I'd be stranded again when their driver was put OOS for running illegally . :biggrin_25523:

    Not often, but I agree with Rick on this one.

    I find it somewhat humorous ( I have a sick since of humor) that a company which will screw it's own drivers will try and help another company. Maybe trying to get on the good side of some people who are screwed royally then they wont think raider is so bad and will work for them?

    You know folks, I love how folks just jump to conclusions about a company they have never driven for. Just because there are a few bad posts about Raider Express on these forums doesn't make them a bad company. EVERY company has bad posts on this board.

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again. If you can work with the way the company is, Raider is a good place.

    As for Arrow Drivers, probably a bit late now, but I'd give anyone of them a hand if I could and was asked.

    And for the record, I've never been put OOS for driving illegally. I don't do it, and I make good money.
     
    Baack Thanks this.

    My husband is sitting at the TA in Russell , MS exit 160 on I20. There is a Arrow driver stranded and looking for a way to get to the Dallas area. He is just hanging out in the rest. area of the the TS has been trying to find a way home from there for several days. Ask the wait staff and they should be able to get him for you. My husband is heading back home to Atlanta after leaving the Dallas area this morning and would help but has to deliver in Atlanta in the morning. If anyone can help this guy out you will be repaid 10 times what you give just remember this could be you trying to get home after a horrible experience with obviously a terrible company. Any help in the direction of Dallas would work. Hopefully the closer he gets to his house maybe a friend for family member could get to him.

    I'm not sure if we have anyone in MS atm, I'm in OKC currently. I'll let dispatch know and see if we have anyone down there. We pull out of Shannon quite a bit.
