they r sitting alot. I know they have been getting real nit picky on everything.
They really do need to be watched...................

They can be very picky now and that's too bad. I am 64, wow old as dirt to an employer . I was layed off from a company for lack of work . I have a good driving record , past employes liked the way I have worked , but I have been turned down from about three companies now . Oh NO, they don't age discriminate . They just don't dare tell you why they turn you down.

If you have any sense at all stay away from these guys. They have 580 units, there record should be alot better. This record shows this company has the trainees and no professional drivers which probably is because they dont pay shit!!!

Though I do not drive for Barr-Nunn, I respectfully beg to differ with you.... you do not want a score of 90... that is considered horrible. Their scores are actually decent and according to CSA2010, there is no need for intervention from the FMCSA in any category at this time. People are saying the same thing about New Century, including some of our current drivers... that we have a horrible CSA score. Just checked. We're actually doing pretty good. Remember, with this CSA2010, the lower your score the better
