    Be very careful with KLLM. I've talked with several ex-drivers and the stories are fairly consistent. Put on loads with no sleep and told to falsify the logs to get it there. Back to back overnight runs. Less than 34 hours at the house and they were calling, etc...
    Personally I don't think I would chance it but then again after almost 20 yrs in the seat I ignored everything I'd heard about JB Hunt and gave them a shot.

    Friend of mine drove for them for a while. He said he ran illegally most of the time, they kept him moving as long as he didnt get held up at shipper or reciever. Quit and went to cypress
