Started as a company driver. Made over 3k miles a week. Became owner operator and it all went away. I was not in the black until in the middle of the second month. They dispatch your loads. They control your income. They keep you down so you never get out of a hole. I had only 1 good check the whole time I was an owner operator. They lie to your face. Sweeten the deal when your a company guy, then they starve you out. They tried to manipulate my first company check. I called them on it and it was fixed. In the first month your in the hole 5502. At that 4 th week they hit you again. They make sure you stay down. You get a load and after you accept it they tack on extra stops that take 24 to drop. You lose money sitting. Then, they tell you to drive 800 miles in a day. If you don't you pay the price. I have all the emails text messages to prove it. I am a whistleblower. So, when DOT comes knocking on their door I will give them up. They have falsified log pages that I didn't write. I have kept all of mine.
