Every time that I see a new driver posting on his/her mostly positive experiences with their newfound relationship with their company, I make a mental note of following that person's postings for nothing other than a little entertainment.
Just another lesson in human psychology; Gawd, we are all such simple, predictable creatures.
First, it's Denial; "My first three weekly paychecks were only for $325.00 each for 90 hours of work but when I figure this system out, things will get much better"!
Then Anger: "Forget what all the naysayers are posting about this company; they just couldn't hack it"!
Then Bargaining; "If I can just last three more months here, maybe I'll have enough driving experience for that other driving job".
Then Depression; "This job blows.. I've been working like a dog since last spring and I can't pay any bills and I'm totally broke! My trucking school and the company recruiters lied to me"!
Then... no more posts, never to be seen or heard from again.Veryblessed, KevinM816, Atlanta trucker and 7 others Thank this. -
OP,
Anything new to report ? -
In all honesty, what seriously would make my day would be for me to read a post from a new driver that would be stating that the conditions... and the pay... were incredible and that their future were looking bright and rosy.
Would be so nice to hear that Knight was revamping the program; and entirely in the drivers favor; or at least a few legitimate compromises. -

I intend to do something like this for my driving experience. -
Knight will be a bad deal for just about anyone who wants to drive like they own the truck. They have lots of rules, protocols & procedures you have to follow to be successful. If you come from a military background or have the ability to adapt, learn & implement the system you will do fine.
I have never had a issue with income at a trucking company. If your complaint is purely income based at Knight, then you faught agianst how they told you, you would succeed. Implementing the program & becoming an advocate for yourself at any OTR company will make you successful.JourneyintoTrucking and Rockwyrm Thank this. -
Knight acquired swift ? Swift was three times the size of Knight.
