My company does not pay me

Yeah, see I didn't catch that because he said he doesn't know why they are taking the money. If he was a lease operator surely he'd know that's what they taking it for. Maybe I just give people too much credit.....

 

Why??? Who have you been talking to?

 

LMAO I'm not telling. All I'm gonna say is... somebody's watching you.

 

I KNEW IT!

 

Not trying to be racist.
But surrey B.C. ,Canada is Known as little India for a reason. And I bet he is a east indian working for a east indian and as a former resident of the valley in BC I was told, never ever work for a east indian owned company (no matter what it is ) they will try to rip you off blind . And that was advice from one of my east indian friends.

One time i helped a friend out by driving a truck for him to surrey with about $40 000 worth of ceder shingles but with no lables so they couldnt be used on a new roof legally. But my buddy could sell them legally. So about 30 days gos by and my buddy is getting mad now because he owes 18 000 for the wood 2800 in labor plus hydro and ect ect, but still no check that was supposed to have been mailed 2 weeks ago.
So we are off to surrey to go collecting , we show up at 5 am jumped the fence and looked to find the shingles if they were still there, and we found 6& 1/2 pallets left , after we hotwired the antique forklift we loaded them on to a 5 ton u haul.

Then the roofing company/broker owner shows up around 730 am. Starts yelling at us in perfect English, unlike when we delivered, then he barely spoke any , just broken sentences. Now hes spitting out perfect sentences with almost every swear word in the book. We told him we were waiting for his crew to show up and we were going to the subdivision to start taking his roofs down and we were going to sell it as kindling.

He then started to threaten to call the police if we didn't leave, we offered him a cell to use ,but he declined. 745 am guys start to show up and it looked like it was gonna get physical. So my buddy calls the cops and they show up , we were lucky we didn't get charged with trespassing ( as the cops said we could be ) , but they told the broker that we had the right to go get my friends roofing back from the houses it was on. Then this guy finally pulls out a check book and gives my buddy a check for 24 000, it was a few k short but shingles with holes are not worth anything so he took it.

But im sure this poor guy is working for a indian company that hires you just to see how long you will stay working without getting paid. Then after he quits they will put a ad in the paper advertising better then normal rates just so they can get another driver for free for 4-8 weeks .Then when there name is total mud they give the company a name change or swap owners.

Now I know I am sounding racist but im sorry i grew up in a town and where i went to school, i was the minority 3/4's east indian to 1/4 mix of other races.
I do realize that crooks come in all walks of life , but i just wanted to state what my experience with the (old country) east indians from the fraser valley are like.
So im saying sorry now if i offend anyone here.

 

I hope you like state housing facilities, because that's where this will get you. Felony grand theft ='s worthless CDL.

1. First when the first check is late. . . STOP working, period.

2. Get new job and never go back.

3. Call the state or providence labor board and file a complaint.

4. Go to small claims court and file suit.

 

It's not felony grand theft. I guess it depends on the state. You absolutely can do it in Maryland and Pennsylvania. I had issues with US Xpress shorting my checks a little bit every week. I called my mom who called her lawyer. He told me, when you go to work for someone you are in a contract. The contract being, I work, you pay. When either party breaches that contract the rules go out the window (just like how they can deduct from or sometimes keep your last check). You have the right to hold the truck (or anything else of value they've already given you, you can't go down there and take something) in lieu of payment. You notify them you will be holding the truck in lieu of payment. They have 30 days to pay up, if they fail to pay, contest, yada, yada, the truck is now yours. It's the same as them giving you the truck as payment for their services. I just wanted my money a little faster. I got it too. I also continued to work there and never had that issues again.... wonder why. If my check was short I would call and they would just pay out then, instead of the whole we'll get it on next week's check crap.

 

How stupid does a person have to be to work for 3 months without a paycheck? I won't do a #### thing until I get answers to 2 questions... How much money? When do I get paid? If either one of them are off just once.... It's SEE YA!

 

I agree. I kinda feel bad though reading his posts, he doesn't put sentences together well. I wonder if his English isn't good and someone is taking advantage of him. There is def something not right though.

 

Shades74 speaks truthfully about what's going on in the industry here. You can tell the original OP is fresh off the boat due to his pidgeon english. Up here in Beautiful BC there are so many scams it's unbelievable. Driver training companies that change their names ever few months to keep ahead of the regulators. Trucking companies that specify drivers must speak Hindi or Punjabi to get hired. Essentially, for a few bucks a driver trainer will forge some official documents from the "old country" stating all the experience driving trucks over there, give the newbie rudimentary training (at best) then grease the wheels at the government testing station (get this, testers don't even have to have the same licence their testing for) by making pay-offs, and then presto whammo, you have another moron driving 80K+ lbs down the roads. I've seen these drivers packed 4 to a truck. Each one specializes (ie: one for backing, another for city, highway, etc etc). I'd say it was all a cosmic joke, but it's not. Don't get me wrong, some of the immigrants are #### good drivers. But the vast majority are menaces on the road and a stain upon our reputations. So quite frankly the poor OP sucker shouldn't have had his forty relatives work in the berry fields to pay for his licence and truck. And my rule of thumb is if I hear an accent on the phone I hang up.
