nice third post!
do you mean the dispatch offices or the entire operation?
big difference there!
same thing at freight
if you can find another job
RUN !!!!!
well they cut our office people back starting monday they cant get over
35 hours the city guys have not had know lay-offs but a few of them sitting home quite a bit. freight is very slow over here at freight its know telling what they have up there sleeve next. even the freight going into the hub in richmond,va is very very slow.... guess if it dont pick up they will be cutting city/road. we have guys sitting home due to slow freight but i have not seen them stop using the purchase trailer drivers........
CIN lost some dispatchers and linehaul sups. Heard one sup might get moved to Kentucky. Very slow at FXNL CIN.
Heard this from several people in Lakeland today. All the linehaul's are shutting down within the next few weeks. Orlando Linehaul will be the first to go followed by HBG.
Who got laid off in l/h disp ?CIN lost some dispatchers and linehaul sups. Heard one sup might get moved to Kentucky. Very slow at FXNL CIN.
Does anyone think Fedex Naitional will be going back to using contractors,like they were before the Fedex parent company took over Watkins Motor Lines in 2006?
Does anyone think Fedex National will be going back to using contractors,like they were before the Fedex parent company took over Watkins Motor Lines in 2006?
Why would FXNL go back to contractors with all the problems FedEx Ground is having with the contractor model? The FedEx Ground situation ought to give anyone using contractors in a P&D operation second thoughts due to the risk of future class-action lawsuits, IRS back taxes, fines, etc.
How long do you think the major LTL companies will stand idly while these contractor companies (Towne Air, Roadrunner, etc) chip away at their market share? UPS and FedEx have major connections at the top levels of government and they will use this power to drop the hammer down on these so-called "non-asset" based companies.
Trust me.
