    Make you giggle? Sounds more like it gets in your crawl and ticks you off.

    I think I am smart because with my 'no' experience, I knew not to sign on with any bottom-feeders.

    Hey, fiddle stix. You're just a rookie (no offense) but how do you get off talking all this non-sense? No bonuses? Problems with t-calls? No loads? "that whole California thing"?? What do you mean by that bro? I mean, how?

    Naw, where just commenting on the ill conceived logic of starting a thread to bash a company the 2 week trucking veteran never worked for.

    Knights no worse or better then any of the other large carriers, as well as many small ones. Anyone with any experience in the industry knows that. This OP knows diddly about OTR yet you are ready to give him a back massage and hold his belt loop? Because he started a thread about Knight.

    You want credibility you need to tell him to walk the walk before he talks the talk about any trucking company. His response to my last thread showed I was spot on about his need for a hug, which is why he posted the tread in the first place.

    I don't know. But I think fiddle hasn't got a clue about otr. He sounds really smart. Like college grade smart. But now...he has a cdl ....and hates knight. Wonder why.

    Well, maybe Knight told em he needs to go through squire training first at like nothing cents per mile. Then after 6 months of that he can transfer over to Knight Transportation "your hometown national carrier" as far as all the other stuff he talks about and complains about. It can and probably will happen to you. If your like him. Maybe. Maybe.

    You need to see your physician and get your medications straight. My logic is concise and transparent because it is nothing more than reading what others have said of Knight and forming a conclusion to a decision. I have not clue as to how you think it is 'ill conceived'. When you disagree with my decision because you want to wrap yourself around in the the Knight Trans Flag and wave their pom-poms does not mean I am illogical.

    Uh.....wrong again.

    First of all, being 'no worse or better than any other..." bottom feeder-dung heap company is not exactly a wave-the-banner endorsement of the company you so dearly defend.

    Secondly, I have never heard of having to hunt for trailers for hours on end in the treads of TransScam or Shneidz or JB Hunt or Werner or Swindled or not even CRE of all places! You are simply ignorant to this. Only a couple companies threads mention pay issues, but none like the constant and intentional issues mentioned about Knight.

    Again, stop calling out my lack of experience trying to discredit me--I have cited many WHO DID work at Knight as my reference material--why don't you challenge what they said? Too tough aye? Easier just to dump on a second-hand user of information than fight the good fight.


    Says you. Do you believe you are Dr. Phil or something?

    If you have a beef with me posting a thread on what I read on TTR and not from personal experience, then just spit it out. I still will not care, but you can then be honest like I have been. I receive all the hugs I need from the many that agreed and/or thank me. You just keep hugging and sucking up to Knight because you and Knight are made for each other.

    Hey FS, I wouldn't be too concerned about what Big Blue posts when it comes to Knight. He has in the past claimed that he does not work for them. I have no way of knowing, but the way he defends them, leaves me thinking there is a "big credibility issue" there.

    I applaud you for LEARNING FROM OTHER FOLKS' MISTAKES. And of course that is exactly what Knight recruiters are afraid of. If everyone learned from other's mistakes, they would be in trouble.

    Now I do know there are a few drivers with Knight who have been there for many years, and are happy with what they have. I am happy for them. But I also know they are the vast minority of Knight drivers.
