Wse-beware of this company

i'm sorry you had a bad experience with them.
BUT i can tell ya, that post ain't gonna fly far (vague accusations never do here)please elaborate though. you may very well have valid reasons to say that. not trying to be an AXX but, i have seen it NUMEROUS times.

 

shoulda called your buisness agent

 

I haul some for them,and have not had any problems so far.I am a o/o and not done a lot,but no issues yet.Let us know what happened,it might save us some troubles later.Thanks

 

LOL, I was thinking the same. I think alot of people walk around with their head up in clouds.

 

You guys need to lighten up on B2B123. Without knowing any of the details you are making assumptions as to this persons work performance and character. He may be vague in stating more details because he has read the warning about trucking companies reading this forum on a daily basis and he does not want to compromise a legal position.

If you have had nothing but great experiences as a driver then I applaud you. You are one of the fortunate drivers who obviously managed to hire on with a good and reputable company that values its employees. Not every driver is so fortunate. If they were this forum would not exist.

I am not a driver myself but being in the freight business I deal with drivers everyday and I know that a very large number of drivers have not shared your experience. I can only speak about drivers that I know personally. They are all hard working, dedicated individuals who do a great job...not because of the company they drive for but because they take pride in themselves and their personal work ethic. Being honest, dependable, and customer oriented is not enough for some of these companies. They still find ways to make life miserable for their drivers.

Think about this for a moment. If trucking companies were treating their drivers with respect, paying them well, and allowing them adequate home time would there really be a need for the large number of new driver orientations that are held across the country on a weekly basis? Advertising and training are expensive so why are so many trucking companies spending big bucks on these activities? Surely they are attracting and retaining only the best drivers. The simple truth is they are not treating their drivers well and they do not care.

For your sake I hope you never have a minor fender bender, are late on a load, or need to take extended home time. If you do encounter one of these situations be prepared to pay the consequences, and don't be surprised if it cost you your job.

If you think the complaints posted on this forum are unjust and reflect badly on the great trucking companies that are spread across the country then why not share with everyone the name of the trucking company that you work for. I'm sure a lot of the drivers on this forum will appreciate receiving the information.

 

Well if the info is true then who cares if he bad mouths the company. Maybe they can think about their attitudes. Most likely they won't. It amazes me that all these guys come on here and bad mouth their previous or present employers but they where the best driver for that company. They never did anything wrong? Yeah ok! Like you said you don't drive but work in the freight business. So you deal with drivers but you don't deal with the garbage we all put up with. You can only speak about the drivers you know. Of course all your friends are perfect and do a glorious job. Get back in the office and let this guy tell his story. If he is to afraid to say anything then don't bring the subject up!

 

truckngal i was not trying to a hardaxx. i was just explaining what i have seen time and time again over the last 3 years here.
a disgruntled driver comes on bad mouthing their former company without giving any details
the responses he GOT are the same i have SEEN. i was just letting him know in advance the types of responses to expect with no details
