    DON'T just DON'T! This company did great for the 1st thirty days. After that it's been nothing but a hassle. You stops getting adequate miles. Dispatchers are terrible. You're lucky to get one that understands English. They pay by nautical mile instead of actual miles. And they don't tell you that in advance. They promised I would make it to a doctors appointment after a staying out for a month and they conveniently forgot. I could go on and on about the crap this company tries to pull. This company will screw you every chance they get. My check this week was under $100.

    Yep I tried to work there also , I requested time off .. he said he’d see what he could do , as if he was doing me a great favor . And finding a spent condom by the bunk killed it 100% for me . I am hoping that with the ELD laws a lot of the European Mafia from Chicago goes the way of the dodo .

    Maybe their trucks are shaped like boats and the first words out of the owner in the morning when he shows up are “avast ye landlubbers”. :biggrin_25523:

    Well, it's been said numerous times around here, that the driver is the "captain" of the ship, so to speak..........
