    I've never driven for Button but I've had his trucks and his drivers in and out of our place on occasion. Never had any problem. The drivers seemed to know their jobs, didn't give a lot of attitude, did what they were supposed to, and the equipment never broke down or caused us any delay time.

    A lot of Button's work is agriculture based and is seasonal. He does a lot of harvest hauling and that's traditionally been an entry level for a lot of drivers in this area with little or no experience.

    I have no idea what he pays so, unlike some other members here, I won't say anything negative about him. I will say that if I still needed the kind of hauling done that he specializes in, I wouldn't hesitate to call him.

    Who is your wife? Wasn't aware of any women drive for Button at this moment. I know Benjamin has a few women drivers.

    In response to your "you get what you pay for" comment, what are you saying about your wife?

    I believe what he meant was that he feels the company doesn't pay much, and thus is reflected by the caliber of driver that works there.

    I work there and I make a #### good paycheck. At Button if you're willing to work you'll get loads! I've seen a lot of drivers come and go since I've been there. I've seen a lot of drivers always taking days off. Multiple days a week. Taking days off isn't a problem. Button will give you days off but guess who gets dispatched first? Yep, the drivers who want to work!
