I can understand everyone's frustration, but continued bashing of LAX and Bill Spencer really helps no one, including yourself. I am owed back wages and frustrated by the lack of communication, but I am reserving judgment, until the facts come out.

I wish all LAX employees the best...

It does make everyone feel better. You need to leave if you have no affiliation with land air as you have claimed.

No of course I believe you should pay your employees, you and me included. And I believe Bill Spencer is making a mistake by not addressing the situation, or keeping employees informed of what happened here, and when they should expect to be paid. From what I understand there are efforts being made to make payroll, and until I know the full story I will reserve judgment.

And before you ask Bill is not a friend of mine, I only met him twice, and I worked for Land Air for 3 years as a driver. But I have learned over the years that overreacting to a situation before you have all the facts, does no good to anyone. But that's just my opinion.

See, that's where you made your big mistake ! Everyone that was a hard working , dedicated employee got burned including myself and other employees that I work with at my terminal and other terminals too ! They lost some great people because others used them as scape goats to cover up what was really going on ! Right to the end ::shit:: was still walking out of the Carlstadt terminal and that came from someone that worked there till the end and now can talk to me because he is not employed by LAX any more being when I was let go a notice went around telling employees they weren't allowed to talk to me. mmmmmmmmmmm I wonder why ?

Your opinion and mine are similar....the bottom line is this....NO ONE WORKS FOR FREE....UNLESS YOUR DOING A FAVOR FOR A FRIEND OR FAMILY...THEN ITS DONE WITH KINDNESS AND WILLINGNESS....Its just wrong! AND THEN FOR THE COMPANY NOT TO REACH OUT TO EMPLOYEES AND EXPLAIN...I know quite a few line haul drivers (myself included) not going back....trust is everything...in business...friendship and life.

I worked there until I maxed out on pay. Writing was on the wall it'd never get better so I left after 3 years. Nice place to work starting out but would never make a career there. The veteran drivers made that clear to me. They didn't want to start over or lose vacation time. Sorry to see so many out of work. Heard from some pissed off customers this week. Picked up a lot of their freight.

Hey...good luck in the future...you'll do well listening to veteran drivers....land air lost complete trust in employees and customers.

well if this is true, isn't that all you need to know about this company's state of mind ,thinking they can tell people what to do outside of work!
