    Try Fore or HUB local, their guys seem happy and their settlements are similar to Kiswani.

    Keep a real close eye on your settlements. Things sound like they've changed a lot since I was there, but I was always being shorted pay when I worked there 6+ years ago.
     
    RERM Thanks this.

    Don't know who's Jim, haven't worked at either place, just know O/O who are there. If you know something, go ahead and say it.

    Bwahahahaha. I know Jimmy, I worked in the office for 2 weeks when I got hurt when I worked there. That is a perfect description.

    @RERM he's the owner.

    Agreed, but the worst was with Fore and I was a company driver. I can't think of any times I've shorted hauling tanks.

    Working at Fore is not going to be any different then where he's at right now. He's still going to be doing intermodal... Lol.

    100% hit it on the dot. listen, let's be real here guys, all the intermodal companies (NOT MEGAS) are pretty much the same. the only difference is ... the pay is either slightly LOWER or slighter HIGHER and the atmosphere is either BAD or GOOD. that's really about it. Whatever company A does, company B does aswell.
     
    HalpinUout Thanks this.

    FORE was the worst six months of my life. POS blue international - only upside was i had atleast an hour a week broken down on side of road and that allowed me to review my check for errors!

    They offered me $26/hr to stay but I just couldn't do it.
     
    MrReactor Thanks this.
