    Osmun Inc is a construction company who is hiding behind The DVIR's from their drivers in order to not fix their trucks and in turn Force their drivers to fix them. The truck I drove was an End Dump Pete and this truck was a train wreck of violations. If One drives for this company and there is something seriously wrong (like brakes) and cant be driven, The company's owner Adam Smith will demand that you drive the truck anyway. If you tell him It cant be driven, Adam gets angry and You the driver don't get paid. I worked for two weeks for Adam and Osmun Inc... and never saw a paycheck from them. NOT GOTTEN PAID STILL TODAY... The department of labor will not Enforce wage law unless it's minimum wage of 7.25 an hour or Over time Law. So Osmun Inc will not pay you and the government wont enforce it either... Basically DONT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY UNLESS YOUR WORKING FOR FREE... I AM THE 5TH DRIVER IN THE PAST 6 MONTHS. Oh! don't pay out of pocket for fuel...YOU WONT BE REIMBURSED THAT EITHER....VERY BAD COMPANY...VERY BAD OWNERS....

    Someone needs to drag Adam out back and have a talk with him.....
    If the equipment is not safe for public highways, do your part... file a report with the authorities
    If that man owes you money take one of his trucks and hold it for escrow

    If I knew how to do this I would... I'm relatively new in the biz as a driver, but I hate being screwed over by people... appreciate your post, thank you... the only thing I can do now is try and let drivers know of this company so they wont go through this and the company cant get drivers to drive for them... what really pisses me off too is the four drivers before me, should have put the word out that these guys are bad news... but I like this site for information about companies...

    By the Way...How do I change screen names and pics on this site

    I wouldn't really suggest taking anything since then it is easy to get the police involved by the owner. Best way would be through a lawyer.

    Do you know of any? the ones I talked to say they wont handle it, and it's a small claims issue... But that's the thing... the company stays well hidden and they don't have an actual office address to be served...

    I've filed a report on this truck with the authorities in hopes it will take the truck off the road and keep everyone safe... and I wont be taking their truck, the only thing is to do at this point is to warn any and all drivers of this Bad company... the company is Osmun Inc... and are working out of an Address listed Out of Craig Colorado, and have jobs running in Craig and Estes Park Colorado...And It's not just the drivers that are getting this...it's also other employees as well. 3 other employees as well as myself, were all stiffed on wages... I recently just read warnings from others On Craigslist for Fort Collins Colorado area that they too have been screwed by this company on wages and fuel reimbursements as well as their trucks not being safe... Everyone needs to know!!!

    How much money is involved in this? Because depending on that amount it may just be a small claims court issue.

    Anyone dumb enough to pay for fuel in a company truck doesn't deserve to be reimbursed. Sorry. People need to start using their heads for the love of God! I don't care how new anyone is to the industry...THINK!!!

    Thanks T-Bone
    Your exactly Right...I refused to pay for the fuel and as a driver I refused to be their mechanic too... Never be the mechanic if your a driver... this presents so much liability to the driver and takes the company out of the equation... But by refusing these things, I got no pay check...
