It's the third quarter. This is always the busiest time of the year. And when November rolls around, we will slow down to a trickle and some people will not work very much until March. That has alway been the pattern at the LTL business.

I would agree, when I started, there was about 42 city/p&d drivers employed at our barn and everyone worked 12 hour days. NOW there is around 68 drivers (I think), AND we just hired 5 drivers on top of that, plus everyone is pretty much working 10-14 hour days including 10%ers. (this is just in 4 years)

So yes, I would say were busier than normal. Atleast more than what I've seen too....

We we have lost 7 local cartage workers in the past 2 years. And never hired anyone to replace them. So I guess it is regional.
