    Anyone on here with something to say about Fluke Transportation Group out of Hamilton. They have loads out of Brampton to London for Coca Cola. A friend of mine wants to join them as an O/O. How is the management, work and run like?

    Thanks

    Only thing I know is they have a stupid moto. "If its on time its a 'fluke'" I know what they're trying to do but it doesn't come across as that.

    Good luck finding useful info.

    A friend of mine was going to work there. They promised him the world including the very run you mentioned. First dispatch was doing local work for no money than going to timbucktoo for crappy money too. He didnt give them a third chance lol. He's a little high strung lol

    Really? So its a Bait and Switch strategy they use?

    They have said A LOT of their work and company, how they have runs to Kingston and all that

    So what happened with your friend? Did he get what was promised or he quit?

    Early spring maybe. They hired him to do a specific run. The runs you are talking about was going to be a back up plan. Personally i dont think those runs pay enough. You can decide that on ypur own. Once he was fully hired, the work he came to do miraculously disappeared. So he walked.

    I am still waiting for a recruiters reply. Apparently, he was saying people are able to do 2-3 runs to London which is almost $1000 daily

    In a perfect world sure. Doing 3 a day day and day out will get old fast! Iirc they're triaxle loads so you'll be using some fuel also. Plus putnam and milton both ways and not to mention traffic. Have fun!
