WARNING!!!!!! Con way truckload!!! pay atentention to the red flags.

That's funny....... The megas reputation for hauling cheap will survive .

 

You and 'highspeed1972' are correct. While many companies lie as a matter of course, it's 'how' they lie these days: lying by omission.

What you went through is a much lighter version of what happened to my at Hunt Transportation (April 2013). At Crete / Shaffer / Hunt, they ambush you with insane requests of meaningless information. They tell you that you have to provide the requested information or you will not be hired!!! After they hire you on the phone, you are told in the so-called orientation, they won't hire you until after you provide the meaningless information. Huh? Why ambush a driver this way? Example: What is the name of the nurse that wrapped your ankle when you hurt it several years ago? Really? The insurance company does not care about anything more than 2 years old, why does anyone care?

The stupid questions kept coming. Insurance, previous employers and many other things come up during the week. I had to wait for them to do all their background checks and checking previous employers, etc., for 3 weeks before orientation. By Friday afternoon, I still had no answer for 3 moronic questions, so I told them good by and went home.

If we are not qualified for some idiotic reason, why bring us to Omaha, NE?

 

Ah yes, instead of five to one, it's now five to two.
Which way will the scales sway as time marches on?
Since many Conway drivers can't even afford a computer, perhaps we'll all have to wait a bit until they move up a bit on their career choice, like maybe when they're cleaning restroom stalls at the bowling alley for minimum wage.

 

As with Musca domestica to dung, that didn't take long.

 

You want answers? You think your entitled?
"You can't handle the truth! Son, we live in a world that has walls. And those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives...You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall.We use words like honor, code, loyalty...we use these words as the backbone to a life spent defending something. You use 'em as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a darn what you think you're entitled to!

Lighten up.
It's Jack Nicholson's rant from A Few Good Men.
I'm ever so sorry that you were wronged.
I'm sure you were.

 

What actions exactly can come from my simple opinions that ever can be a crime?
Ps that's off topic of this thread.
