    i always get green lights in colorado. i wonder why. hmmmm.

    anyway, i have sent out a few applications with non-bottom feeder companies. all of which deal with specialized stuffs. i have a good friend who works for an auto hauling company. he's already put in good word for me, and i have already spoken to a boss fella at one of their railhead yards in phoenix. oh yeah, they don't use the DAC crap, either, and they're not a mormon company. :biggrin_255:

    last night i cussed out a few "mechanics" because they refused to send out a service truck to get mine jump started. i tried getting it jumped from other drivers, and even pull started. it was also 12º last night. he said he'd be reporting me to mr. knight himself because of my abusive language. i don't care if he does. i did the same to an overnight dispatcher, too.

    the silent one that is me decided to blow up due to being lied to and all kinds of crap within the first 48hrs of my grandmother passing away. i missed her funeral service because of these adam henries. i will never ever run a favor for these people ever again, i will never "just get it there" so they can be paid in time, and i will make sure to talk as much crap about this company while on customer grounds, hopefully saving a soul or two from coming to this company.

    by the way, has anybody else noticed their paychecks are taking an extra couple of days to be direct deposited? it's been happening with mine for the last few weeks now. something tells me kevin is running this company into the ground. maybe it and kevin will go down in flames like doug and his mother did at arrow.

    Grab your money out of direct deposit as quick as you can . If a company can put money in they can also take it out .

    that's why i hold another bank account. i use this direct deposit account as a dummy account. i have my bank pull the money out within 12hrs of the direct deposit, and deposited into the real account where all my money is. fortunately i've made money from betting on ufc fights. i still have the $3,400 leftover from when brock lesnar defeated frank mir the second time they fought.

    I'd love to see Knight break international law.

    My bank is based in the land of tulips and wooden shoes!

    Company tells you to idle at what is it, 20-30F? But then they ding you for the idle time.

    I just say f it and do things my own way. What Knight doesn't know can't hurt them. Well, other than the added weight to the truck! :biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559:

    while i was at a consignee earlier today, one of the receiving office people started talking to me. according to them, knight has undercut swift by 5 to 7 cents for the catalyst paper account out of snowflake, az. i couldn't believe it. knight is undercutting swift! man, how much lower is this company going to go?

    Knight must really want those crappy, heavy loads for some reason. Maybe they pay "full" miles, and Knight then can really stiff the driver hard on the miles.

    I know with some accounts, the mileage Knight gets paid for is A LOT more than the miles *I* get paid for.

    Must need more cash now that they lost a truck off a "embankment" and went into the river. Wonder how much the EPA is going to ding them for that.

    Probably more than a set of new tires for the truck would have cost that's for sure.
