    were slammed

    Just seeing if any other terminals are seeing the type of increase in freight that we are. If this keeps up we may have to put a few guys on to help cover everything.

    Work out of fay. Punched out today with just over 62 hours for the week. Things are looking up. If anyone's looking for a job now is a good time to put in an app online for your local terminal. If these freight levels continue they will most likely have no choice but to put more people on.

    You will drive in your car or with someone else is there's if there's more than one person. They should pay you mileage for orientation and a reimbursement for meals if I remember correctly.
