Southern Refrigerated Transport
Not a good company

I came to southern refrigerated transport needing employment, it was a week before christmas and my savings was gone and the bills where way overdue.
I told the recruter my background was not the best and it would be better for me if she would fax me all the release forms she needed sighned and i would fax them back so they could do all there background checks on me before I went to orintation in Texarkana Ar. She did and three days later she offered me a bus tickett to texarkana, they told me everything checked out and Southern refigerated transport has a job for me. So with very little money I went. When I arrived I had to walk to the hotel from the buss station because they offered no transportation, the next four day was real bad filling out document after document, papers I thought had nothing to do with hiring on to a trucking company I have been driving for ten years some of it was small regenional companies they said if it was not 48 states it would not be counted as over the road and would only pay me 1.5 years experence. Also they had not done any background search on me intel I was there. I felt they went way beyound what the D.O. T reguires for history I had to explain in writing everything and everywhere for the past ten years to the day they required me to have sighned documents from other people with their addresses and phone numbers verifiying everthing I told them I also sighned a paper stating that if I left the company anytime in less than six months the cost of orintation would be charged back to me. On the last day I was given a employment number and a truck the job was mine I thought. They dispached me from texarkana ar the next day to brownsville tx I was to stop in houston tx on the way and pick up the things I need from home (ie) TV/DVD, REFRIGERATOR, MICROWAVE, TOOLS and other things. Aprox four days later I was told to give my load to another driver in dallas tx and drive empty back to SRT in texarkana when I arrived I was informed that they had found some information in my background that I had not put on my application and I was fired they said I would get a buss tickett home but all my property was my proublem I had no money and had to leave it there or give it away. I was there less than six months so the money they owed me they took back for orintation. I had about 1,200$ worth of property I had to leave behind and I spent about 150.00$ on road expences so it was very costly to learn that (SOUTHERN REFRIGERATED TRANSPORT) is a very bad company.
