I was with knight for a year and a half, and only ever had one problem with my pay, and that was when I quit. I have heard nothing but bad things about the katy terminal, so I had always refused to deal with them. One thing that will make a world of difference with knight is to pay super close attention to their freight lanes. I used to hate cali until I poked my nose around the mira loma area and found a nice customer the had runs home to SLC every day, and it was a simple matter to find freight from SLC down to LA, because no one wanted to go to Cali, and boom! I had a dedicated run from SLC to LA and back twice a week with weekends off.

Starting to think that I shouldn't have left

Dry van. He did reefer with CRE when he first started and found out you spend more time at DC's getting loaded or unloaded than you do driving. I don't think he'll ever go back to reefer.

I always hear about all the waiting done driving reefer. Find a company that does not deal with grocery warehouses. When I was with Knight Refrigerated I never went to a grocery warehouse and the most I spent waiting was 1 hr.
