    It was hard to tell. It was coming towards me on the other side of the median. Haven’t seen one parked yet.

    Wow.. I don't know what happened but before I left It was getting concerning with micro managing tactics around safety. (Taking away pc rights, random inspections at the yard.)I can appreciate a company that is safe but when you push it to the point that it makes life difficult for the driver something else is going on that probably has nothing to do with keeping the driver safe. Just my opinion.

    This would have pushed me out the door too if I had still been there.

    Anybody still in this thread that works for Shipex? My husband and I are about to move to them and could use any helpful tips or information on how they are currently running.

    I believe they’re out of Grand Rapids, MI. I do know that they have very nice trucks.

    Gotta love those KeyBoard Cowboys, especially the ones that wear spurs on their #### kickers!

    Sholipex is out of Salt Lake City..see them on 80 through Wyoming a lot..they run a lot from East to West coast and boast long runs. Last I heard they pay salary but drivers were complaining they installed driver facing cameras.
