New trucks, new trailers, new load bars, new phones, various new tools to help city drivers, and Vnomics installations.......yet no new friggin GEARS!! It's getting to be to the point sad. Everyone simply played dolly spotter last night. You come in with a set, break them down, and spot your gear in front of someone else's rear trailer. We use to have a dolly for every two pups at my home terminal, until a few months ago when Dan G. decided we didn't need all of them even though if we had 12 gears, we loaded 24 pups. Now we are having to run 53's for most of our break trailers b/c we use pups for our directs. That means an extra run or two having to be loaded b/c of watching the weight on the vans. Last night the Op's manager said from now on we are getting all 53's back from ATL. I like running van for van, don't get me wrong, but ATL has a hard time loading a 26k van that isn't over on the driver. It's also causing delays in freight for those that need a gear. Please, please, wise up managment...and buy some dollies.
