What was the name of the company again? I don't want to re-read 4 pages.
If there was no problems at Lake State why did they leave? -

Just left Minnesota lease situation. Will not name company but not a good situation.
They hire 20 drivers a week, you start out as company driver, told nation wide and only get 1500 miles a week MN to MI. Told if you lease can get more miles etc. Contracts state according to Minnesots law. As company driver first check 250. orientation. 2nd 655. after tax. 3rd 255. after tax, then O/O first check 105. over 800. in escrows to quarentee future payments of 330. and repairs up to 10,000. for that escrow. Total of 12% of revenue. they did give so they say 100% fuel surcharge. Last check -1.05 stating they do not have more than 2100 miles. The E machines never work. One driver in called me asked what to do 50 miles from home wife had accident and was critical, dispatcher said he could not go home company comes first. His wife is in coma and not expected to live. Needless to say he quit left truck and went home. Sign of the times great trucks alll the latest electronic toys in truck for them to manage you, no pay, no miles etc. I just left and went to Texas told refer pay .48 per mile spent week in orientation all the same hype no truck older than 2008 all the new electronics, told by recuiter 2800-3500 mi weekly quarentee.
they bring in 40 drivers a week from all over US weekly. Just talked with person in office told .34 per mile with over 20 yrs expr. they just dropped, then told they have not confirmed by mail every position held in DAC, cant drive even though passed physical made score of 99% on driving test. When I explained three companies can not answer no longer in business, she told me to shut up if l want a job. Last night talked with two drivers they have had sitting there in Texas waiting two weeks for this reason. Was also told by same HR person drivers will not get over 1800 mi per week no one can legally do more. Will pay all lumper fees myself, all tolls although tolls will be reimbursed. I am on my way home, back to small company that allowed me to make an income. They are kind enough to take me back and pay me to drive their truck. -
It's good info but a bit meaningless without a company name.Lonesome and diesel_weasel Thank this. -
