This company is a joke! I drove for them off and on for three and a half years they do not like to fix their equipment have a bunch of attitude and then when they do have to fix it as their trucks are Raggedy as hell those trucks that they buy for example are from Werner Enterprises are so mechanically challenged that I broke down practically every 3 weeks! What makes matters worse is that they do not have any will Integrity if they make contracts and agreement with drivers which they will actually renyg on their end of the deal and only pay you what they want to pay you for example they screwed me out of my escrow as their trucks was turned in exactly where they wanted it when I quit! So example instead of a $1,000 I was only paid $500 and you'll get the other $500 in 2 weeks which this was a joke let me tell you how to set me up! When you turn your truck and you supposed to get your $1,000 on the last check since they do not hold back a week so for example what you start on Thursday you will get till next Thursday the following Friday you understand now? Along with whatever they owe you that $1,000 escrow was supposed to be included so instead of him paying what he owes me he turned around and gave me a lot of attitude when I told him that's the reason why I quit you in the first #### place because you never follow up on what you and I agree with and all he did was make me feel bad that at least paid something to you and try to bring the pasta well guess what today all I did was get ignored again and practically screwed out of my ####### $500 escrow! So do y'all drivers out there do not ever get a job with these folks at LTE Trucking they run those raggedy ### refrigerated trailers they have absolutely no real integrity in those dispatchers would do everything they can to deprive miles to try to get you for example they have such vindictive attitudes or revengeful attitudes say if you have done just done a restart and have tons of hours to drive if you delivered on Monday they would actually sit your ### around for a day or two find you a load on Tuesday night or Wednesday deliver on Friday so you will have a really screwed up week which is b*******! Not only that they talk real nasty and fouled to you and when it's coming to money like I'm going through it right now he tried to make me feel so bad that he actually created a check stub from last week for $500 and still didn't put the God #### money into my account so all I get was oh we're working on it 9 hours later I got ignored which was last Friday and on Monday all I got was another bunch of Lies or you'll get your money this week be patient! Now here today is on the original date is supposed to be here and all I did was get sold out of ignore it and they still didn't pay the God #### money they do not like to pay attention they actually changed their mind instead of paying $100 layover that's if you get paid if you do get it he turned around and dropped it down to $50! Do not like to pay any detention but every now and then then what make it so bad is when you do get detention he wants to put half of it back in this God #### pocket you see they are a Bulgarian family and I'm not a Prejudice man but let me tell you something I would never drive for anybody else anywhere around Bulgaria Russia Ukraine and Lithuanian I drove for them for 3 months and got screwed out of thousands of dollars I don't know why folks from over there thinking they can come here and basically screw over us God #### Americans while they get rich not me so stay away from these worthless ### people okay remember their name forever.. LTE Trucking they run refrigerated division stay away from them my fellow wonderful truck drivers we work two God #### hard to be screwed over tell everybody because soon I can already see that they're going to be bankrupt they're a bunch of greedy worthless smart ### disrespectful sons of b******! Y'all be safe out there love y'all take care God bless!

So what made you stick with them off and on for 3 years? Sitting for a couple of days will happen with those types of companies from time to time. They have no customer freight. It's broker loads and nothing else. When I worked for one of those companies, I sat in Hunts Point in the Bronx for a couple of days. They will wait forever to get a top dollar load if they need to. Making consistent money can be difficult at times. That's why I always tell drivers do not do the 1099 thing unless you absolutely have to do it. Drivers that need to clean up their record, rehab their career, things of that nature, sure. If you have the ability to go to any of these dozens of reputable companies that's where you need to go.

You do know that running you as a 1099 driver there is most likely illegal? Did you set your own schedule? Choose your own loads? If not, then you should have been paid on a W2. What does the contract you signed say about all of this?
I would file a complaint with the IRS right away and let them make the determination on whether you were an independent contractor or an employee. As an employee you, that company will have to pay all of the back employer portions of your Social Security taxes and more.
