my last day with superservice llc

in fear they would send me way out of the way to get out of the truck. i lied and said i was in need a leave of absence for medical reason but once i got to grand rapids, mi yards. i informed company i was quitting over the qualcomm. i got a reply back asking if i would come up to main building. so i went up and met with my dm and op manager. they wanted to know why i was leaving.... my response was as followed......hmmmmmm 28cpm(4cent to per diem total 34 but actual pay 28cpm) 1200 to 1600 miles a week, 200, 300, 400, mile runs but mostly 300mi trips every blue moon 500mi or more. horrible paychecks. ask me again why i'm leaving. they responded if we give you 2cent pay increase would that make you wanna stay? so from 28cent actual pay to 30....NO!!! but if you can promise me in writing 2200miles a week atleast or a base salary if i don't hit those miles i'll stay. he said he can't do that. i said ok well were i'm going the pay is gonna be 44cpm and a sliding pay scale for short haul runs under 400miles. i ask can i get you to match or even come close to that 44cpm mile. he shook his head no i waived my hand goodbye and went and finish packing my truck stuff into my car. so it don't seem i'm a super service hater i can say their OK people in that office in grand rapids but the way they run that company is not to benefit the driver. i wouldn't recommend this company to anyone unless it's the only company calling you and need a job. but be warned they have 250 new trucks in a fleet total size of 1258 trucks their still 1000 old trucks 2006-07 model year falling apart and company runs these old beat up trailers most of the major shipper want load their trailers because of the age of the trailer or just appearance , black mold is in the super service trailers anything starting with 531,544, 548 is a original super service trl and has a wood interior and behind that wood is black mold. company is own by a investment group so their only doing just enough to keep the company going and trying to make it profitable so they can sell it. if you go here don't expect no big pay days, no dedicated runs. 300-400 mi run 1300 to 1700 a week. that was my experience over 18months their. and i came from companies where i did 2500-3000 a week and made 32-37,000 a year to super service and did 19,000 for 2010 and i was always ready for trips they never came. 300mile from trips new jersey to virginia..lol...wow.
the end

 

thiers always one. i'm glad your doing well but i can walk you into any ss term and find you 5 or 6 guys that tell you there barely getting 1600 miles a week. the guy who gave me a ride to my truck at my new company was at superservice 4months ago he left for the same reason i did 1400mile weeks and poorly maintain trucks. were we are now he says he hit 2400 2700 mi weekly and hasn't seen a trip under 500miles since he been here(not superservice) but agian glad your doing well. guess i'll stop posting under superservice i don't work there anymore. good luck to the remaining drivers there.
