Mcleod doesn't care about safety because they tell you to drive on icy highways and if you get in a wreck ? you wont be able to take time off even if you have vacation time coming. call your lawyer first before you sign on because sooner or later you will need him or her.

 

you ever notice its always the companies never care about the drivers....I have a question what year did the drivers stop caring about the companies that provide them a living? hmmmmmmm..it is what you make young people. Hard work wont kill you...It makes you a better person.

 

It's not that simple. Many of these companies now have business models that maximize their revenue while minimizing the drivers pay. Knight, Heartland, and many other companies have moved to a short haul model while still paying drivers CPM. This means less miles, less pay, but more work for drivers. Drivers would care for there companies if they paid them by the hour or even better by %. % pay would align the companies interest with the drivers interest. When the company makes more so does the driver. As long as their is plenty of fodder for the driver marry-go-round that will never happen though because the current business model is too profitable to switch.

I disagree. Current driver for McLeod. Never home 3 weekends per month as promised. Lucky to get home Sunday and leave EARLY Monday mornings. Company tries to make me drive illegally. Truck has been in their shop 4 times for brake issues. Still aren't safe. I could go on and on. DONT SIGN ON WITH MCLEOD!
