This is the only place I say anything good about JB Hunt. I say it often and loudly. Too many posts by that guy above who quit when he had to spot a trailer yelling about how bad JB Hunt is....

The most votes I came across was for Werner(20), still hardly enough for me to make a decision on any company.
I know from past experience that unhappy people from any profession are more apt to complain about their company than the happy people are to praise their company.
I agree the numbers are low. More drivers should take the time and vote, good or bad, on the companies they worked for. However, I will not discount the votes of those who take the time to express how they did with any company.

Which guy are you referring to? I believe the one who quit when he had to spot a trailer is an example from BIG JEEP on 44's post.

Now, if your referring to me, I made my reasons clear the first, second, and so on time that I posted.

And if you didn't take the time to read the entire post, welll........

Default Company ratings

I would, for the reasons I stated in my previous post.
Here's a good example why:
I work at a small rental store, only 3 drivers. Two of them are very unhappy, I'm not one of them.
This is what we have, $20.58/hr, time and a half after 8 hrs., family benefits $130 a month, can accrue up to 3 weeks off per yr., 4 weeks after 5 yrs.
........yet they will still complain about every little thing that happens, mostly normal day to day business issues.

You know, that's a great job. I can't understand why they would complain, either.

I guess some people arn't happy unless they complain about something.

If I was referring to you, I would quote you. Just like I've done here.

Since you posted the same reason the guy quit that I did, I can only assume we are talking about the same person.

No worries. I am fully aware of your experiences at JB Hunt. I read almost every thread here, although I don't always comment. :P
