    yeah well the only way they can get a better safety rating is to have better drivers and maybe i can help that i always make sure my #### is right when i pull on a scale and hey the more you get good inspections the better your csa rating so i welcome them because not gettting them can almost hurt you as bad as getting bad ones....

    I'm doing the lease thing cause i don't give a crap about ever owning the #### thing just want to be able to be choose what and when i want to do it like i said earlier I'm not really doing it for the money well i am but i know i can't get rich trucking i have owned two trucks in my career and i will just probably turn it in after 2 yrs and get another new one plus that 2400 check for completeing the two yrs if i was gonna do the company driver thing i would go back to hauling chemicals where i know i would make a good .50 to .75 per mile at the company i retired from so i guess i look at things alot differnt than most because i go into things with the attitude of i really don't give a #### and that way i'm never disappointed LOL

    I just left NCI after only 4 months. The first month was great, 3000 miles a week, then, garbage. I stayed out over 9 weeks just to try to make a paycheck and made a total of $2500 in NINE WEEKS!!! I can give a laundry list on all the bad things about this company but I will just say this. If you are contemplating on working here, be prepared to live in the truck with only $175 a week in advances to live on.
     
    pilottravel2002 and 123456 Thank this.
