dracula, you are correct most of us are line haul, and no there is nothing we should be doing as far as the bottom line. I see how little atl cares about service to our customers and that is not my problem. The only thing we can do is make sure we get out freight to the breaks in timely manner and also our freight back to our origin terminals in a timely manner. As i have said earlier I do not take a break during my entire 12-14 hour shift. That being said, that's my choice to get home as early as possible, and not an attemp to mask the failure of the company to make the cut times. We all have to do our part to secure our jobs, but if you need/want to take a break then screw your tm or i/b supervisor. We are humana and work hard, so therefore we deserve a little downtime durng our nightly jobs.

Make customers your problem remember the pay your wages if this industry continues to think this way we will all be out of business. LH drivers are very powerful in a trucking company be professional voice your concerns and make change happen. At saia I thought a lot of the service issues and damages were do to no training. Example I went to my regional and v.p and asked them why saia continue to stack on non-logistic pups and turning skids on logistics bars by time this freight would arrive @ our terminal it was destroyed! They told me that it was inbound job to recoupe and fix it before delivery and they would not make there numbers if that was a prioriety.
