CALL 800-2JB-HUNT find out for your self!

Answer 1

screw that f-ing HUNT

Answer 2

Sometimes having integrity is costly. You did the right thing. It s amazing that a company this large and this well known would compromise your safety and the safety of others on the road. You quit for an honorable reason and you will find another job without a problem.

Answer 3

oyu'll find the same thing at other companies too - you have to watch your own back on a lot of that stuff - especially miles. You didn't buy that tractor from them did you? Good Luck cya out there.

Answer 4

Next time an employer Tells you stuff like that,do what I do,see if they'll "put it in writing"! If not, they're most likely full of #*&@! :-)=
