Nominations for worst co. To drive for in three decades. Heartland express # 1.

I wouldn't go drive for them for 2 reasons,they don't allow pets and everytime I drove past their Iowa term I would see their lot full of drivers waiting to go thru the safety lane.Must be because of the bad equipment you spose.Something should be done about them forcing the drivers to take back roads and not paying them for those miles.But when you think about it ,its not much different then companies only paying zip code to zip code miles.Drivers are still getting ripped off.

 

Thanks. I appreciate it.

 

If they pay door to door, you would make less per mile. Zip to Zip is kind of industry standard. Yes we drive more miles, but the company is only willing to pay x amount per load. If they pay more miles they pay a lower rate so it all evens out.

I saw someone pull the red line on a jb hunt truck that was in the fuel island for an hour without getting fuel in the middle of the day. Pilot paged him and no response. I parked where i could see the island and an hour later he cant figure out why his truck wont move. Serves him right.

 

Im sorry but you are just another jb hunt hater this subject is about heartland why are we trying to change it over to JB HUNT just like any other company they have good drivers and bad drivers just like ALEX HUNT says some of them were cut to be truck drivers and some of them were not, Jb hunt fired many bad drivers and i guess you are one of them not to offense

 

Calling you out on this one.

I've been to the Phoenix terminal and it's organized and clean. So, your comment about all their terminals being "filthy" is false.

They don't "respect" their drivers? What does that mean, exactly? Considering you've already made, and I'll be generous, a misstatement about their terminals,I'm thinking that the reader should use discernment when reading your posts. I respect facts and truth, of which from your histrionic musings, is most likely, not plentiful.

My spouse has worked for them for over three years. He's been trucking for 25 years and although they certainly not what I would consider to be exemplary in all categories, he was never, not once, experienced those things you have claimed to experienced such as deliberately routing you in the opposite direction as to not bring a you home?

More dangerous than the mafia?? Poison apple?? You looking for that perfect shiny apple, Seekingwork101? Love the moniker, by the way, it suits you.

I think I'll pass on your "wisdom".
