    Gee it was so terrible that over a 10 year period I kept going back to this terrible company.

    Turnover was terrible as out of those I went to orientation with only 4 remained.

    Wow. When a company is terrible I dont tend to go back, especially since there are so many prospects out there to pick from. As for turn over? Did it ever occure that maybe some of them could not handle it, did not want to work, got fired for cause, or got the experience and moved on to a better or local job?
    Sorry, but I cant buy the rationale. I worked for them a while ago. They were great, receptive to my needs, and the equipment ran great. Maybe my experience was a novelty, although I dont think so.
    Could it possibly be that it is you all that caused or contributed to the problems you all are having? Just a thought.

    When so many drivers quit and so many report bad experiences, I would take that as an indication there is something wrong with this company. Many drivers leave and go to work for good companies and are successful. Denying there are problems with JB doesn't change the fact that there is something seriously wrong there. Just trying to blame all those drivers who quit because they refuse to be treated badly is refusing to face facts.
    I heard JB still pays hhg/short miles? There are companies paying practical miles, so why work for a company that pays you for only 90 percent of the miles you drive. That's part of the problem right there. Companies expecting their drivers to work for free. I heard Schneider does the same. I was thinking about leasing to Schneider and then I realized they still pay short miles. No way . That's a deal breaker for me. It's a rip off .
