Skyview Farms

There is no question I know a lot that you don't . .
Before I make any more assumptions , just what is your intent in posting here anyway ? It obviously isn't to add anything of value or interest to our trucker members .

 

Came here to learn a little bit about the industry. Jumped into this particular thread to read why this place was supposedly a bad company... Then came my questions.

What's it matter?

And why go personal?

 

Rick G I am pretty sure I Have met you, if not in Cayuga I ask myself where? You sound very familiar....Back to Mike S. Yes it does bother me that he went through such experience, but you learn from them. I also do know a few op. who work there and they are happy. Look what people say about Werner and JBHunt and I have a few friends in both companies and there happy. Come on when I started with Quality back in 2004, I heard nothing but bad things from former drivers that did not make it. And I still went for it and I made a good investment in it I have done well. It's not easy to become a good business man overnight.I assure from experience that it takes more than driving experience to make it work.
I really wish you the best and I really me it. You are old school, God knows what wonderful late model trucks you drove. In part that I can only dream of. I have a great deal of respect for you, 40 years of driving are not easy. I only have 13 and 12 have been as an OP , I still have alot to learn, that's why i wish you good luck.

 

Ever been to the Owensboro terminal ? I grew up in MA so I'm sure I'd remember if I met a driver from MA . What kind of truck do you have ?

 

Mike is on a misson and I support him 100%. Skyview guy jumps on here and then disapears. I really hate when companys rip employees off.

 

Here it is in a nutshell gentlemen, your all overthinking the situation, but the fact remains that I gave them 1500 down, went out the same day with a load, worked every single day the maximum allowable hours you could work, 7 days a week for 2 months straight, and never EVER got out of a negative equity position, it's as simple as that, now i worked everysingle day for 2 mo, and was always neg, I could never take a personal day every few weeks cause i was neg every week and was trying to catch up. If slowpoke ignores my advice and warnings, I just want him to promise to come back when he gets his shaft twisted and share his story.. I cant beleive he is still considering it after all of this though and their bad bad saftey records and so on.., but some people need a brick to the head to wake up
