    If you were crossing scales in OR with no issues then that means the company has an OR fuel permit. To keep the permit they have to report miles, I can’t recall if it’s monthly or quarterly, it’s been a while since I’ve been out there.

    They charge the drivers because they probably pay on a 1099 and on their end they pretend you’re a contractor.

    Another company taking advantage of drivers who don't know the difference between being a L/P driver or an actual owner operator.

    I don't work for them but everything you are complaining about is, because you didn't read the paperwork you signed is why. The same reason everyone complains about these types of companies you signed with a 1099 Chicago outfit and thought everything was going to above board? I'm guessing when they were editing your logs for you do 58,000 miles in 13 weeks which is an average of 4,461 you weren't complaining.

    Before you pretend to be an owner operator maybe learn the business and how companies should operate, and read what you sign. Or just look at every thread on this board about every Operation out of Chicago.

    You could have saved the time it took you to write this. It’s the most ignorant #### you could say. Are we here to talk #### about other drivers or are we here to weed out the scummy companies taking advantage of people. All you clowns in these posts siding with the companies are part of the problem not part of the solution. Maybe when you open your mouth next time there will be something helpful that falls out and not trash.

    And while we’re at it, I never leased a truck thinking I was an Owner Operator that’s retarded. I leased a truck for other reasons. It’s not possible to be owner operator with these types of companies even though they try gassing you up like you are one.
