  • Maybe someone should have asked some of the drivers of those companies what they thought. Trucking is one of the most shadiest businesses and it’s the drivers that suffer as a result

  • I think they mean for shareholders not employees some of these trucking company’s treat their drivers poorly and have created dirty schemes to cheat drivers out of money.
