Comments By Charles C.

A fwe days ago I was a lot worse off. I have not received at dime from my fundme.Com page which people recommended to get started. I am not panhandling by any means and I'm taking the page down by tomorrow. I can almost guarantee that no one gave me a dollar.

I'll give more explanation in my PTSD comment. First I never mentioned I had it or I got it from Lobos. My experience there was such a letdown mentally and fincially that it had impacted by mentail state in a big way. People can get PTSD from not serving in the Armed forces. Life sucks sometimes. I put on 8 pounds in the past 3 weeks, jumping to 190 from 182. I usually eat healthy and go to the gym everyday, run, hike in northern NH, bike and play golf. I've always been athletic. Since February 23 I've only been to the gym twice and walked a few 3 mile (average) walks. My lack or motivation and energy is a big problem now. I'm depressed everyday. I'm slowly getting better and i have a long ways to go. . I suffer from anxiety which was mild. My recent state is high and whacked . I don't use any drugs and barely drink alcohol. I have not participated in binge drink in almost 4 weeks.

What ****es me off is when people are saying that I'm melodramatic and exaggerating things. There is no agenda and I'm not here to put down Lobos. I don't believe that it's been 17 days when I left ther parking lot. It's soffit to move on when they said I will be reimbursed and it hasn't happened. If you reading this Lobos, I would like the check to be mailed out by Monday 03-21-16

What don't you get about the fact that I'm sick and tired of posting about Lobos. Over half of my resonates on here was to get into contact with them after emailing and calling from different lines. Numerous people asked me questions about my experience. I applied for food stamps and got medicaid for a year. I'm about to work my old job again that I don't want to. I have to save enough up to be able to start with a different company.

I could care less about Lobos except my reimbursement for travel. It seems to take forever and I'm getting sick and tired of asking and waiting for phone calls.

No. I'm not tryimg to get attention. People are getting it all wrong. I love driving and the ride out to Utah was fun. Being nearly broke and driving back Sucked. I could have gone on a 10 day cruise and gone out every night and wouldn't be as broke as I am now. When you 2500 miles from home and have just enough cash to pay for fuel it's scary. If a tire blew it would be impossible to get home financially.

I'm getting better and I'm glad Lobo posted on herè. $300.00 is ok. The sooner I get it the better because I can barely afford to get groceries. I wanted to delete 2 or 3 of my older comments but you can't do it here.

I'm on www.fundme.com . Click on 'browse' and scrool down. There is a picture of me and my cat to the left. Guys on here recommended to go there for support. Anything helps. I'm crossing my fingers that I get food stamps tomorrow. On a side note there is no way I'm going into my second trucking job broke and hungry. I won't be homeless so if anyone feels too bad about my situation please don't worry. Tough times though. I'm done talking about Lobos unless someone has questions. Time to move on! If any of yall need a place to stay i have a nice apt in southern NH. 75 minutes north of Boston and less than 20 minutes to the ocean in Maine.

I believe this is the third time I have asked Lobos to call me back about my travel reimbursement on here this week? I was in contact with a man in the office at approx 5pm (mountain time). He took my adress down and stated that I would be contacted soon. Did you mail my check out Lobos? I really want to know! Today I had to reapply for food stamps and welfare. I have not done this in years. A few times in my life I was on food stamps but never full blown welfare when I was not working for several weeks. The agony I went through has basically made me temporarily mentally ill/disabled with depression, anxiety and trauma. Weeks ago I thought I would be banking some hard earned cash with Lobos and feeling optimistic and stable. I was doing fine prior to early Feb, saving for this opportunity and leaving a decent paying job. Now I'm sick and ill. I believe my medicaid expired (which I got being unemployed in truck driving school last year). Tommorow I have an appointment with health and human services to get back on medicaid so I can get counseling to cope with the trauma and agonizing pain from the sacrifice I made then being mislead, in my opinion, and scared ****less over a contract that could easily have ruined my life for good. When war vets come back home some have PTSD. I may have this from my experience at Lobos aswell as other experiences. It feels as if this put the nail to thr coffinm I want it to go away. I want my life to get better and moving forward is so difficult especially over this reimbursement delay.

I set up a page on fundme.Com (I'm sit ting on the couch with my cat). Any donation is great and no one aside from my parents has helped me in the past. I have done countless deeds and usually never get anything in return. At Lobos I drove a 73 year old man home to Kentucky from Salt Lake City area. He had no way to get home after he decided he didn't want to sign the contract or attend the school from the best of my knowledge. He paid about $50 in fuel bUT I paid for a double bed hotel, $25 in fuel, food, went 300 miles and 8 hours out of my way and didnt visit my brother who lives in Jackson Wyoming. I did all of this so this man wouldn't get stranded and possibly die 1600 miles from home with no money to get back. He is a friend now and I still talk to him. This just adds to all the pain and suffering I'm in . 5000 miles of driving, one month out of my life to now seeking welfare and mental health treatment instead of being in the career I chose and love. It will take a few more weeks or maybe several months to get back on the road. I need to get better and have less doubt in myself and potential opportunities as a company driver. After the experience with Lobos many in my opinion would never get in a truck again. Some would possibly commit suicide. Thankfully I don't have those thoughts. If your broke and chose not to sign the contract at Lobos please contact me immediately so I can try to help you out in the future when I have money saved up.

Thanks for all your support. Any donation helps. If I get food stamps tommorow I'll lower the donation amount. I believe it's $400.00. Enough to get by with gas and maybe have a pizza and I'll be happy.

That's fine Lobos. I would like to be reimbursed immediately. I called Monday at 12:07pm and the gentleman I spoke with said I had to delete all my reviews to be reimbursed. I tried calling earlier today and I cannot reach your office. I also tried calling from another phone and emailed you. It seems as if Im getting quicker responses posting on this forum than calling you? You have my phone number. I will give you my adress tommorow. I'm getting sick and tired of posting on this site regarding my travel reimbursement money.

You mentioned that you would reimburse up to the cost of bus ticket? Call me tommorow please? I want to move on with my life.

Sorry that my spelling is bad because I'm using voice command. I'm going to give a slight overview of this place that I can't even call a business.

This establishment is located in a two-story building and it does not have a sign on it. On my way there I got lost. The first floor has approximately four rooms, a conference room a study room with tables and chairs it's pretty small the kitchen and an office. Sorry there is another office. It doesn't seem anything like a truck driving school this business claims to have one. I asked the older gentleman I drove home what school was like his first day and he said there was a 20-minute orientation and the school handed him a book and he just read all day in the study room. He said there was no instruction or anything like that from the best of my knowledge.

I want to get into the upstairs which seems very shady and confusing. To the best of my knowledge the upstairs is always locked from the outside. Upstairs you have people from Lobos, Arrowhead dispatch, direct lease, and United motor cooperative. I have never been upstairs but it just seemed very odd what they were and how they were conducting business up there. There was only one person I saw with a blue shirt that said direct lease. It seemed as if they were one man company. The people I saw with red shirts were apparently Arrowhead dispatch. I was very unfamiliar with United motive cooperative and did not meet one person from that but I guess they're upstairs and liked to hide. The older gentleman who I drove home who was in the office to ask about his reimbursement which they did not give that day said he did not see any secretaries or woman up there which he spoke with over the phone. I asked him how many people he saw upstairs and he said approximately 12.

Lobos interstate services Direct lease Arrowhead dispatch United Motor Cooperative

Apparently upstairs on the 2nd floor. There are signs on the building but for "studies weekly" and "ABCs weekly"?

Good luck trying to understand this place? If you do you'll have a seven figure job on wall street in no time.

I forgot to mention that all staff there seemed to be 25 to 35 years old.

I did not remember everything from that encounter. After the approximately hour and a half or less orientation and overview of the company they they then asked if we could signed the contract. The younger gentleman when into the office for my understanding and approximately less than an hour later I saw a man as he signed it. He said he did and apparently when you sign it you got to sign every page of the 51 page contract. To my understanding he didn't read it at all or barely read it. While i was in the room looking it over they asked me if I had signed it to the best of my understanding.

Just an FYI they sent the contract to my phone on March 2nd in the morning. I told him that day that it would take me more time to read it through. They were okay with that and I stayed in a hotel with the younger gentleman who had just signed it. They had a truck ready for me that morning and I had missed a lot of the contract. I told them specifically what I thought about this whole deal in front of many companies staff and specifically said that this contract takes weeks to understand and go over. There was barely any overview of the whole contract and it seemed as if well let me just put it this way, they want you to sign it without even understanding what the heck it means.

On Wednesday morning I decided to leave and not decided not signed a contract. I ask to be reimbursed for my travel and they said that I had to be in Salt Lake City in the office to get reimbursed. I was outside the office and was calling them to "say hey I'm still here I'm in the parking lot can you reimburse me." From that point on I've been posting on here in calling them politely to be reimbursed and yesterday they told me that I had to remove all my comments from the site for them to do anything. I don't know how the contract got to Brett. I do have a copy of the contract downloaded so I'm not going to say much from there.

You asked how much time they gave? I told them it would take weeks to understand the contract. I said that I needed a day to go over it and they mentioned they had a truck ready for me Wednesday March 2nd in the morning. I did not sign it. I left and they didn't reimbuse me. It felt as if they were trying to rush us.

The young individual next to me signed the contract in less than an hour (my estimate 30 min). I asked him if he read all of it and he said he didnt. It was scary!!!

I stopped calling Lobo hours ago fwi. I didn't send them an email about my reimbursements.

Lobos would not give me the contract prior to arriving. I asked for it. The only time it was available was on March 01 after the short orientation.
