I sure wished somebody had written about this co. On this web site. After going thru there so called orientation i left. I thought this was going to be a good co. Being small and all. Boy what a let down. Ill start at the begining;the motel/inn that they have u in, didnt seem bad, but was frequented by prostitutes;theres a bar in the inn w / a resaraunt. The company gives u a meal ticket each is ($5) but that gets taken out of your 1st check. Every meal ticket u use. They do give a free lunch pizza;an for the 2nd day u order off of a menu from a grease joint. There terminal, well its more like a 1 level bldg on a street corner in a bad part of town. The trucks park on the street, an there shop is 100yrds down the street only 2 bobtails fit in it, everything else is done on the street. The other drivers warn u not to sleep in there dirt lots (you might get shot) The orientation was 2 days the 1st day a lady came in for about 40min, she seemed nice. The rest of the day we did orientation ourselves. They use peoplenet, a cheaper version of cualcom. The 2nd day a diferent lady came in reading over there rules an having us sign the forms, that took 35min. This co. Must have people abandon there equipment alot, because 1 of the rules is they take out $50 each wk from your $ untill it totals $400. So if u return the trk your supose to get it back. The other rules are $25 if u dont do a ck call on time/$150 late on a del stuff like that;an if u get written up by DOT for your logs your fired! In may this co. Was busted by dot.$30.000. On the 2nd day we were issued our trucks, dam* shi# what a mess/dirty inside an out the trk was suppose to be an 2007 but it looked like a 2004. Actualy ive driven 2004's in better shape. This company is run by an italian family that has there hands into many bussines in the KC metro. The owner was there on monday walking around, never came into class to say hello im so/n/so welcome abord. The people in the office did'nt seem to have manners, in greating new people (they just didnt give a dam#) They were more imterested in complaining about there problems. Not a good environment. The trailer we did a test drive in had bad breaks, In all: the equipment isnt well maintained. This is a mickey mouse operation, Italian people are also hard to work for (that means you being treated fairly). If you care about your reputation/driving record stay away from these people.
