    Okay, been paying my dues in short haul purgatory last two days. Two runs right at 200 miles. No preplan for tomorrow, will call first thing and hit them up for some miles.

    Let me guess. You are in either: Charlotte, Carlisle, or Columbus Terminals dispatch areas?

    I agree with the point your making. My experience combined with my clean MVR means I should make more. I job hopped for a while due to some serious burn out and then took 14 months away from work in general not just trucking. So now I'm having to repay some dues. Just trying to stay positive and paint an accurate picture of what my experience at Knight is.
     
    Shaggy and kirk Thank this.

    Did you not read his 1st post? He stated that he was out of trucking long enough to get treated like he has no experience by this corrupt industry. Knight is giving him a decent opportunity to get back in.

    Charlotte and Carlisle were our Screw Zones for Florida drivers.

    So really, from your eyes .His profile should be 0-1 year experience. Knight isn't giving. They are taking... Even though a local company would welcome his previous experience. 2 years out of trucking is hardly considered out of trucking with many local companies :biggrin_25523:
