    Either they'll get it together or they won't. I hear that every terminal at Knight is like it's own company, and it make since when I hear some people say out West and in Indy they are doing fine and equipment is well maintained. But out here in PA is a joke.

Keep in touch with @wfutch79 ... he's a good guy and will go FAR in this industry. As will you, when you make the leap, i bet~!

    Hopefully I'll be over in Columbus in the next couple weeks. I've got to try and make at least a few dollars to pay bills. I've got $3 and payroll keeps messing up my direct deposit information. Won't give me and advance for the two loads I've run because "We can't give advances unless you're under a load" I've already had to call and push bills back. Ice never had this kind of headache with any job I've worked before.

    Dang man, I hear ya.... I feel ya. When I started OTR in 2000'ish, life wasn't so complicated.
    Now THAT is some B/S if I've ever heard any...."no advance if not under a load?!?" They're probably figuring you are gonna walk on them; but under a load, they could DAC you for abandonment, out of the industry. Sheesh.
    Then again, if you've RUN the loads, how is this an advance?!?!? Hope the wife and kids are hanging on while you are going thru all this; wish I could do more besides give you moral support.
    If you were in CMH (Columbus) already, I could swing by. Do they have an ETA as to when you'll be turning and earning again?!? You're just bedded down in a Hotel, broke? Just wtf.

    I don't understand it really why they can't pay me for the work I've already done. I mean I k ow better than to quit under a load, even with what they're doing I'm still going to return that POS truck to the yard. I'm just wondering what I'm going to do with my bed And tv And all my other stuff in the truck. I'm sure once I tell them I'm gonna split they're probably won't be willing to get me home first to get my things out of the truck. And nah man no ETA as of yet turned the truck into the dealer in Binghamton on Monday they said maybe by the end of the week. I appreciate the support. But no wife no kids it's just me.
