I just prefer to stay positive. It's a choice. If staying positive means I'm patting myself on the back then so be it. Being negative about my job or anything in life for that matter never serves a constructive purpose. Maybe I'm just another number or just another nobody as you put it. But my positive attitude sets me apart from you. And helps me be able to look in the mirror and be happy with what I see. Like I've said many times on here before. I accept life unconditionally. Life holds so much. So much to be happy about always. Many people ask for happiness on condition. Happiness can be felt only if you don't set conditions. I post to make myself feel good? My job has very little to do with me feeling good.
Well, I can't say I'm always positive and never complain because that would make me perfect. But I can say I'm very grateful for the things I have and for the most part have an upbeat attitude. I do backslide from time to time but who doesn't ..... YOU have often heard me say that in life there are no guarantees .... Not with your job ... Not with your health ... That's why I try to live by this saying ...I have no yesterdays >>Time took them away>>Tomorrow may not be>>But I have today.always positive? never complain? check that mirror again. that last sentence probably says more than the paragraph does.
http://www.odfl.com/docs/cms/sec/Q32015PressRelease.pdf You can't tell me that we can't get some of this business. Maybe we need to recruit some of OD's Freight Reps. From an 83 operation ratio in 2014 .... To 82.1 in 2015 .... On weaker freight volumes. This is how it's done. And we can do it too. Let's all step up our game. Especially the Sales Reps.
Yeah I agree the raise we got effected sum of our numbers but on the flip side gas prices has been down for a decent while now and that should have helped the company over all sum too.The operation ratio had to absorb the 1.19 raise we just got that put us to 24.66 ... The economy has took a hit and something had to give. We will be OK. Everyone will be laying off before this is over. I heard Estes has laid off a few and cut back hours.
Not really. We get a higher rate when fuel prices are up bits much more then the cost of the fuel increase because all customers, save for the Walmart Starbucks type, have to pay. We lose on this deal.Yeah I agree the raise we got effected sum of our numbers but on the flip side gas prices has been down for a decent while now and that should have helped the company over all sum too.
And we have lost a lot of oil and gas business due to lay offs in that industry. They just aren't shipping like they use to.Not really.

Fuel price is a non factor. Depending on your location, it's about $1 per gallon cheaper compared to this time last year
Shouldn't be "earning" money on fuel anyway. Should be just covering the price of fuel, not posting a profit
Why is that? Why not make money on every aspect? Also, the mean fuel price doesn't take into account the average price based on where and how much is purchased. It's a risk that the company has to negotiate in their favor, especially with the larger customers exempt from it.Shouldn't be "earning" money on fuel anyway.
