  • Another company closes without notice. The Sunday Rant is disgusted by this. Drivers have not been paid and some said they were being asked to buy fuel with their own credit cards and wait for payback. There are so many cases of this. When you are not paid and the company has no fuel money they are broke. Be ready, this could happen to anyone. I wonder if the drivers will ever be paid their last check? I doubt it.

    I can't believe that there's not laws in place to pay any employee, if the company shuts down. Not just trucking, ANY company. They worked, they're owed that time, they're owed that money.

      There is. It's called bankruptcy. You can file a claim just like everybody else owed money and the court will decide who gets what. Or, it they just closed without filing bankruptcy then you can sue in civil court.

    My motto was if the pay check does not bounce, it's a good trucking job! 🚛

    It's getting bad here in the U.S.!!! Trucking companies are closing down every other week seems like 🤔🧐🧐!!! Jobs are general on the brink or with low wage pay!!! The job industry here is gonna get smothered because of all of the illegals coming across the border and with that said, Low wage pay or not enough to survive in this over inflating economy...

    If anyone from that company is wondering, when a company declares bankruptcy the first to get paid are employees. It may take a year but they're first in line.

      @@flowboy78 Not sure 🤔 the name of the dealership, I would check the closest Chevy dealer closest to WABASH trailers, Not the Big one where the finished trailers are where the drivers go to pick them up. It’s the one in the middle of Lafayette, I believe there’s an Arco gas station across the street from where Mark does his videos. My guess is it should be very easy to find unless Mark switched dealerships, once he accidentally showed the blue neon lights and the Arco gas station in the background, that’s how I know he’s in Lafayette Indiana on US-52 near Wabash trailers. BTW, that is a good looking Van.

    They close because they can’t make payroll. The employees will get their pay from the bankruptcy trustee. There’s going to be more carriers fail.
    There’s always the option to live in a van down by the river.

    I can't believe the gullibility of some of those driver's...let alone the size of the NUTS on the company's personnel for even asking such a thing towards a driver!
    If it was me, hell - the only question that I would ask is: "Are you serious?"
    And if that answer is yes, i will then proceed to end the call, laugh all the way back to the company, park their truck, take pictures of the truck, hop in my whip &bounce to crib to begin my NEW job search!
    ...in that order!
    Fuhk that company!
