    Out of Pomona, CA? I'd love to hear from current drivers. I've searched the forum and found a few tidbits but not too much. I see their trucks pretty regularly, so there must be happy KKW drivers out there somewhere.

    I talked to one of their drivers at the T/A in Coachella about 6 months ago. He was doing the shuttle between Phoenix & Indio, and was glad to get on with them.

    I have heard since then that they discontinued that shuttle they were doing.

    Maybe someone can enlighten us.

    Well that's concerning. I'm considering applying for a shuttle job too, but I wonder how stable it is. It sounds like it's all structured around one particular customer. If that customer's needs change or they lose the customer... what happens to me? I'm reasonably happy with my current company and don't want to leave for a position that won't last.

    Sounds like they are turning into a outfit for students. That's good pay for no experience. Shoot those poor England students are making like 25 cents.

    I applied with two years experience and they offered only .41 cents.

    Benefits are pricey, and western regional can expect to chain or sit quite often
