    Learned the hard way, this company is great IF you're Bosnian. Caters to their nationality and gives Americans last choice in hours. They don't follow DOT standards and they cover-up bs. Very disorganized and very discriminatory. Pay is not worth losing cdl for illegal activity.

    I'm African American and half Indian and have never felt any sort of discrimination against me or any other driver that wasn't Bosnian... I've only driven state of the art equipment and have never been told to do anything remotely illegal and other drivers will tell you the same. Your comments are very unfair to the company and their image and completely undeserved.

    Meh... State of the Art equipment? Looks pretty average to me, as I work across the street from the Long Avenue(Fort Worth) terminal.

    I know one regular consignee they go to. I see them there all the time in the mornings either shoehorned into the barely accessible parking lot unloading or parked in the lot of the bowling alley next door taking a 10. The place takes all their freight in through the front door. :eek:

    God only knows what other garbage they deal with.

    Lol. Garbage or not. It's still freight and I'm sure they pay nicely for dealing with that ######## so why not? In a dog eat dog world you take what's available. And that's just one out of many consignees. But I guess you only deliver at perfect locations.

    One thing is for certain. We don't touch anything floor loaded. It's either palletized or we don't haul it.

    Maybe the Bosnians are discriminated against in non-Bosnian owned companies. It's a 2 way street.

    Same here. We don't do a lot of dry van work but that's one of our unbreakable rules. Power on, power off. No exceptions.
