R&L | Where is everyone?

Man, I thought things were starting to turn around. It was really quiet here and thought it was because everyone was working steady. Sad that at least at some locations, its the same ole same ole. Maybe we haven't quite got it beat yet. RH keep up the pressure, the squeaky wheel gets the grease. Somebody from corp has gotta wake up soon. Hopefully.
 
Sapper, I have finally realized that bitching does nothing around here, it only makes me more miserable...I am in it for the paycheck, I still try to do the best I can, in spite of the conditions, and the unprofessional management at our terminal... I have accepted the fact that they intend to run our terminal completely into the ground...When they do this, I will take my perfect driving and work record elsewhere...I can't believe Wilmington has not done anything, our terminal down 10%, the company as a whole is up 10%!!!!

It won't be long before we are going to be down a lot more than 10%, the salesman that went to Conway is gonna take alot more of our remaining business, and losing one of our largest shippers, is really gonna hit the bottom line...

If Wilmington dosen't do something soon, it may be too late!!! Very sad what has happened!!!

I will certainly miss a lot of the people I worked with but I know they will always be friends. I wish you all the best of luck. I csn only hope that things will get better for you guys going forward.
 
Smart Girl!!! Good luck freightgal, I have a plan to get out of here also, I just have to be patient!!!

Even if I wanted to get out and do something else I couldnt.Being a senior guy and top pay up here in the northeast I have little chance of finding another job that pays close to what Im making right now not to mention If I left it would be to leave trucking all together. Im tired in general.Things are actually pretty good here right now.
 
I am working on leaving as well, but when I do leave I will not be in a truck. My 5 year plan is to be in the trucking industry, but not as a driver and not for R+L. Working on a few things that take time, once that is up, LATER!!!!!!
 
is sad that r&l is like this now.
scm's, supervisors and dispatchers who have one thing in mind- their numbers only.
WTF happened here? we all work for the same company, thus we should all have the same goal.
it is sad that the brain trust in wilm doesnt care to even look at this.
go ahead and keep doing business the way you are now but you had better enjoy it now cause it wont last.
you guys are ruining what had the potential to be a great company.
 
I have to agree with Jules. Not the same company from when I started. All they care about is numbers. You have to reach your goals. The human side left this company a while ago. I was fortunate enough to land at a smaller truck line, family owned. It is like night and day the difference.
