As the tumbleweed blows across the yard in LCP, our drivers are running empties into MBK and bobtailing home. I just got called for either a WLM/LCP or a MBK out of RAN....glad I have 20 weeks of unenjoyment left.

Makes ya wonder how much freight is being picked up at the satellites/customer and run to the West Coast without ever seeing LCP or CVE. Economic slowdown or reality of what I warned would happen 4/1/08? You decide. I haven't seen any thru rail freight anytime I've worked since the first, however, I can count the home terminal trips I did get, on my fingers.
Rail yard pretty slim as of late.
Maybe 6 trailers a day if lucky. Down from 30-50 a day a year ago.
It's Dead everywhere. I sat at home for five day's. I got only two short runs in thats not enough to put in to my benifiets.
I went from being forced into teams and having only one 0 in three weeks to sitting for four days now. I dropped an app at US Steel friday and if I get a job offer I'll quit Yellow on the spot. I don't know if that's anymore stable but the website said to be willing to work a minimum of 40 hours a week annd at least I won't be waiting for the frickin phone to ring at all hours of the day and night
