The problem for me is we have less drivers then when I started and I’m not really moving up the linehaul board. We had one city driver come to linehaul and we are starting 2018 with one less linehaul bid. That puts me at number 8 of 9 until March when another linehaul driver retires. I’ll move up one, if his bid is replaced. It is what it is.
“The restroom is clean, where’s the bar?” Too funny, bro!!
Some things never change.
Do you guys still do that goofy-ass ‘matrix’ JSP thing like Conway did? That thing always cracked me up! Honestly, is there actually a 1:30am start time ANYWHERE?
Yes - at least the terminals in my area do. Reason being is just in case , that way there's no asking , it's already on paper what you want if you have to add a 2:30 or 1:30am start time.

Broken space bar?
Yes and it is the stupidest bidding system I have ever seen. I worked in place that had more driver and bided in less than a week. When you went in to bid you knew what was aviable and knew what you got when you walk out of the TM office.
: for a run. I could bid our shortest run number one and be top guy. If we run it. They cut it so much because it can be picked off. And what's the point in being number one of one if they do send one ? Might as well run long and chase the money. Where ever you land.
I’m not saying never but their selling stock with propagating that route. Jacobs is a master at selling ideas . Yes someday there will be autominized trucks no doubt but his prediction in my opinion is a little optimistic. If you feel threatened by his outlook on this he has you right where he wants you scared and not to expect more because your soon to be replaced.
