Big Freight - be on guard against them & other companies

Big Freight is in for one hell of a surprize a combined OH&S audit and Labor board investigation

 

Or use a death in the family. Hard for anybody to argue with that.

 

My God Red Lake I got fired for getting stuck about 2 mi west of the branch in the road that connects hwy 671 to 105 I was going to RED LAKE I was in that little dip couldnt move more than 3 feet forward or back. BFS calls that a rabbit trail, first rabbit trail I have ever seen with culverts at crossings. Also the first rabbit trail I have ever seen you can turn around with a 45 ft trailer on.

 

I worked at BF in 1999 and they were a good company back then. In 09 I got a call from the recruiter to see if I would come and work for them again. I don't know how he got my number. Well I went back, what a mistake that was. Now that the kids have it they drove it into the ground. Look at all the trucks that sit against the fence. That should be a clue there's something wrong. Now me and Tom got along, we both worked for Can-am west a few years ago. To anyone looking to work for BF. Look somewhere else.

The company I work for now is okay but they like to slip-seat you. I was supposed to go back to work today and found out my truck with all my stuff is 800 miles away. This happens all the time and I'm getting sick of it. My PTA was for today so why ain't my tuck here? I run my ### off for 3-4 weeks and ask for 3 days off. And this if how they thank a driver. Ya I'm looking for a new job. It just ain't right.

 

I know the drivers I see up and down the #1 highway are not the most courteous.

 

No there not, and they act like that to our own. That's what happens when you just don't care anymore. They also don't care about the trucks they drive, leaving the rest of us to deal with it. I just don't understand that way of thinking. Most of the time dispatch don't know what's going on or cares either. Or so it seem to me.
