If you upset one of their drivers, be on the lookout for the finger! Very unprofessional. I emailed over a week ago explaining I wanted to discuss the issue with the driver. I guess they don't care their drivers make them look bad. Yeah. I am just one person; and, likely won't hurt their business; however, they gave me a very bad taste and I will be as vocal against them if I ever hear their name suggested for business as I can.
