    Western Express, and they're horrible too, but they have a better wage and better opportunity. They aren't forced to team, drive new trucks and can even get benefits. Carolina Cargo takes advantage and literally pays slave wages, hell even the owner went to prison for shady bs. Do I think these guys need a chance? Hell yeah I do. Do I think they need to be treated like scum because of their situations? No I do not. Nobody who is trying to turn their lives around deserve to be treated the way Carolina Cargo does.

    Haul grain or hay trains. Idaho is about to EXPLODE for needing hay, with most of the northwest.

    I think the owner had some tax problems with the feds.
    I once worked for ExpressCo which the owner filed bankruptsy and opened Western Express. Most of the drivers were ex-cons. Good company to work for though. From what I've read ExpressCo was much better than Western Express.
    Which are worse than Carolina Cargo? Malone & Hyde, First Fleet, Midwest Distribution. I worked for all 3 at one time or another and would gladly choose Carolina Cargo over any of those three.
    I had never heard of Carolina Cargo until I joined this forum.

    CC is the worst. It's real hard to beat CRE and they've managed to do it.

    I guess I stretched the burger thing. my point is that i already have a job making over 800 weekly so doing something that i am passionate about making less than 800 a week driving for a outfit that has a bad rep for 3 years just to make more than 800 weekly in 4 years. well i cant see the upside in that. just my opinion.
     
    joseph1135 Thanks this.

    Why don't you pay the fine and move on with your plan? If you have to get something else going to do it, it's still a problem you can solve. And you should. No insurance company, or truck company therefore, will want to employ you with a suspended license and unpaid fine. It's such a red flag. Pay the fine, get a seat. My $.02.
     
    pattyj and eae Thank this.

    You left me under the impression you are in dire financial straits and grasping for straws, but now I see you're not. Best wishes.

    didn't know that was the impression i left sorry if it is. i know the mistake was mine in not asking for sympathy just advice which is what i received. but if carolina is my only option that statement is true i can forget about it.

    my main concern is not knowing what life will throw at me in the next 3 years waiting meaning 3 years from now i might not have the freedom or even the choices that i do now.
