    Must be the same as California gravel trucks. Not all of them of course, but enough of them to constitute a real problem.
    Junk equipment, drivers who don't speak or understand basic English, owners who cut the rates down to just above break even, and...most importantly...the greedy rock companies who hire these guys in the first place.
    Cheaper isn't always better.

    He knows a lot of drivers in Edmonton and Ft Mac, there is no reason for him to be looking on kijiji, well actually there is a good reason, no one that knows him will work for him cause they know he doesn't pay. He's a predator, he will cheat anyone.

    Called me 3 times and texted ... had no idea he talked to me a week before ... first thing he said was .... some guys are talking #### about me on the internet !!!!
    Why would you tell someone looking for a job this ??? Because after talking to him for a while I figured he was high as a mofo ...
    then went here !!! It all made sense !!!! Beware of a guy who will not shut up on the phone ... he is probly high

    A forum dedicated to thieving CANADIAN trucking companies/individuals would be helpful. Its tough to gauge companies from Glassdoor and Indeed reviews because they really have so few reviews. One Mega only had a dozen reviews. Many drivers I know do not use computers at all and its not just a age thing....

    Lol! Every company has their shortcomings. You might as well list everyone. Reviews are subjective.... and one sided.

    Yep, always 3 sides to the story, their side, your side and the truth.

    There are some obviously bad ones tho, the "Usual Suspects" I call them lol.
