    So I just learned if Oakley doesn't have a terminal in your home state. They don't take the taxes out of your paycheck. Only federal. Only company I have driven for like that. So either I figure it out. Or find other work.

    Their daily pay rate has more holes than Swiss cheese. I also love their ZERO pay layovers/restarts.

    My 4-month review, I won’t make it six months. $500 withheld for fittings, $100 for a bag of essential lights, gaskets, seals. Daily pay is more like half day pay. Everything they do is to screw you.

    The "guarantee" there.....is NOT fully guaranteed.


    I CAN guarantee, however....that I am glad/proud to no longer be there....

    Stipulations?

    The phase of the moon...the direction of the wind....coupled with the amount of cloud cover. Stuff like that.

    Do yourself a big, fat favor --just look elsewhere.

    that's not really any testimony to go by . That's like showing up to court and saying you are suing the olsen twins because you don't like them and they did something bad . Attorney asks, Ok what is bad?
