Grassmid Transport, Zeeland, MI

Worked there for 8 days and told them on the 3rd day of an 8 day trip that I wasn't the guy for the job--I have hauled food in the past and apparently I bumped my head at some point and forgot just how much I loathe grocery warehouses. Made every PU and delivery on schedule during that 8 days. Received a company ticket in Florida for over dimension ($100). The head dispatcher got all defensive when I told him I was quitting when I got home and I thought I made it clear that I had nothing negative about the company or equipment, it was just hauling food that I don't like.

When I returned to Michigan, I cleaned out the truck, turned in my trip envelope and even gave the company a check to cover the ticket in Florida. I did it because I have integrity and it was my fault. That check was cashed 3 days ago. 2 and a half weeks have gone by and still no paycheck. They don't return my calls/voice mails or emails. This company has been in business since 1967, so I assumed they were an upright company. Pay was not per-mile, but percentage, so I don't even know how much they owe me. Short of hiring an attorney, does anyone know my options for getting my pay?

Thanks, Steve

 

Disregard, I finally got an email reply. They mailed my check, for whatever reason, to my old address in Texas. I was in the process of moving everything back to Michigan and had submitted everything for direct deposit for just this reason...Smh.

Other than that, they are a decent company from the short time I was there. Just be prepared to sit and wait and warehouses, and they don't pay detention.

 

They don't subscribe to DAC.

 

Didn't even put them on any apps, and start a local job on Monday. This isn't my first rodeo....
