I never listen to hear say. Truck Drivers are some of the biggest BSers i know. So i never listen to what they say about company's. |

That's a great idea. I've heard that MANY drivers are stuck out on the road trying to get home....
I'll keep back a couple hundred...just in case... for a bus ticket and a couple meals for one of those drivers if I happen to see them... Hope someone else does the same...it certainly COULD be one of us. |

Some of the guys said they hadn't been paid for a month and when they were paid the checks bounced. That should have been a gigantic "Leave this sinking ship" sign.
I guess your right. If i didnt get a check i guess thats enough to make you think. |

Ok, I can't help it: Hey Arrow Drivers Hows that Hope and Change working out for ya now?? No worries, Obamacare is on the way.

Few questions, if the fuel cards are cut off then how do they expect these guys to deliver the trucks? What about any load they currently have, what happens with it? Or they wake up on a toll road and their pre-pass is cutoff and they don't have enough pocket money to cover the toll? What a mess for the drivers, I will not be surprised to see a bunch of abandoned Arrow trucks left sitting either out of fuel and loaded with cargo or just left at a T/S or rest area

Good thing arrow is not Union. Cuz i can see all the union haters coming in blaming it all on the union. :smokin: That puts more truckers out of work, really sux and also give companies more leverage to keep payrates down. |
