    Risinger Bros is about a rip-off and a half!!! They pay .10-.20 below national avg for fuel surcharge and they pay short miles and they think they are being competitive this way!! They offered a load that my husband turned down and said he was quitting and they are reporting to his DAC that he quit under a load???? WTF???? He was standing in Powersource recruiting office when this happened and the recruiters at Powersource started shaking their heads as they were handing my hubby paperwork for a drug test!! WTH???? As an O/O hubby was making 700/wk of which 400 went to truck payment and the rest to insurance so we were paying them to work for them!!! While at Risinger hubby hauled for International Paper and when we asked why the fuel surcharge was so low they said because that was all the company would pay. We ran into another driver who hauled for IP who said IP paid him .50/mi FS. Is Risinger stealing half of the fuel surcharge from drivers?????

    ok I dont even really care about that what I care about is they are reporting to DAC that he quit under a load when he didnt simply out of spite and retaliation and Powersource has graciously agreed to write a letter on our behalf stating he was in their offices at the time because now we have to challenge the DAC.

    So you're saying he was supposed to be working for Risinger as he was drug testing for another company?

    Risinger Bros is a total rip off,I leased a truck from them for 2 months.In the beginning it was ok,I was doing pretty good then I noticed the fuel surcharge was being shorted,So when I questioned them,They got hotheaded and told me to bring the truck to the yard,My lease was terminated after I called them out for being criminals.I highly DO NOT RECOMEND leasing anything from these con artists...

    I would hire a lawyer and sue them then. These bottom feeder companies need to learn a lesson.

    If you're right, then that should be easy to have reversed.
