Yeah...wont find that info...above our pay gradeWhat were the 3 companies that put in bids?
Yeah, Jacobs wants the LTL so bad that he was taking bids to dump it. Before that he only wanted Menlo and had no interest in the LTL. Now all the sudden he wants it. Lmao. Better wear a bib while drinking the dallasj. I'm not the CEO of UPS, but I stayed at a holiday inn last nightWow had enough where to u get all this inside info. Do u work directly with Jacobs seems like no body knows any of this but u, being as smart as u think u are surprised your not CEO of ups.
Damage control
Saw this on FB earlier today.
If you read the message, it's for truckload, not LTL. He may sell off the LTL, not in this instance.

I talk to Truckload drivers on a regular basis at one of the customers I go to. The driver I spoke with today seemed optimistic about the honesty of Jacobs change of plans but wanted ZERO to do with intermodal. He was looking forward to the conference call and liked that "more or less , Jacobs has kept his word."I find the wording in that Qualcomm message callous and tone deaf. Glad I don't work there anymore.
No he didn't "take" bids. He was honest about the entire issue and said in one of the articles that he had three UNSOLICITED offers. Which means that Truckload wasn't up for sale, but three groups was interested anyway.Yeah, Jacobs wants the LTL so bad that he was taking bids to dump it.
there you go again trying to put facts in another persons fantasy story HOW DARE YOU!!!!!Jacobs has stated that he needs a trucking company because lots of potential customers won't do business witha logistics company. They want to deal with a trucking company. They are afraid their freight won't get moved on time if you don't have any equipment. And I doubt he would start rebranding trucks if he was going to sell it. He does not seem to like wasting money.
I started this thread because somewhere I read that XPO wants to change our operations and I thought truckload and LTL will probably work together more. It did say in the interview with Jacobs that it's going to take till 2017 when we see changes. He said its going to take that long because he wants to make sure it is done correctlythere you go again trying to put facts in another persons fantasy story HOW DARE YOU!!!!!
