What if... Dual Purpose Hubs ran a Team Operation?

I noticed them in Dallas pulling the candy stripes off the old sleeper units and putting FXF on them.

Really?

Gotta put something on the door to move them to Ca to sell to the mater freighters.

I wouldn't expect anything out of Fedex except the worse for any of its drivers. If they will cancel bid runs from LIT to WME that used to haul econo freight just to put it on rail cars to save a few pennies I wouldn't bank on it as being a good thing for the drivers but what do I know, all I ever do is work the dock it seems.

I remember those orginal mater freighter. Leaking juice out the bottom of the tubs, trying to climb the grapevine in 100 degree heat and spinning your wheels because of the juice, and the aroma was outstanding.

You guys give these people in Harrison to much credit. The last few I weeks I have notice priority freight going silly ways like economy. At SGF the other night I had 5 bills come out of a LIT trailer going to PBF. And then again the next night. I'm no genius but taking priority freight 500 miles instead of just 50 and handling it twice instead of once seems a little dumb. One of our drivers pulled an economy load from EKC to DSM, they reclosed it, KCY driver takes it home with him. 400+ miles instead of 30. If this mind set is going to take over company wide we are all in big trouble!!!!!!

Why are so many of the former Watkins/National guys obsessed with team operations??? If you want to run team, Schneider is always lookin' for someone to live in the truck!!!

I met and Indy driver in St. Louis one night and he brought me a KCY group trailer and a STL economy trailer. I called central to see if they wanted to split it off in STL before I left because the 8s were 8877. Nope, it has to go to the economy hub. Okie Dokie... off I went. The people in charge are drones and that's what Harrison wants. Don't think for yourself.
