    I worked for them and it isn't anything to brag about...

    Swift, England, Prime, Western Express and on and on... all crap bottom feeders

    Anything else?

    I got Fleesed by them. I wasn't a company driver...does that count? I averaged paying myself around $.23 cpm...yes you read that right 23 cents a mile. After fuel (including reefer fuel for their trailer and their load), lease payments, truck and load insurance, and all the extra charges they stuck on me (over mileage limit charges, etc) that was my adjusted gross. And I didn't even get a pat on the butt or a kiss on the cheek when they were done. Didn't have enough money to even service the truck once in 6 months.

    Sounds like you needed more experience in running a business. How is that Primes bad? You should have ran your company on paper while learning the business on Primes dollar as a company driver. Otherwise, take some personal responsibility for your failure man.

    Nobody wants to drive a castrated truck with computer logs and satellite tracking at $0.32 a mile and 400 miles a day
