XPO | No Work ,no Freight

My daddy wants to flush the employees by starving them out. So he doesn't have to pay unemployment. Line-haul is the biggest expense. If daddy puts the freight on outsourced carriers it saves $1500-$2000 a run then he doesn't need you anymore. Which means daddies liability just went down and makes us more savory to another company to buy us.

I sent the united states treasury a check a few weeks ago hope your pops enjoys it
 
They closed a couple last last mile facilities near us and Lowe’s is also ready to give them a boot due to poor service.
Last mile is a disaster for Lowe’s in our area
 
You got that right , I just filled out applications with two other carriers over this past weekend . Already had a phone interview with one.

It's hiring season. And it's been a tough winter for XPO. If they think last summer was bad for losing drivers or that 84 cents is gonna keep a man. Well, they can just sit back with their popcorn in their big shiny office and see the results for themselves. I did appreciate the 34 cents an hour instead of the stupid no bonus " bonus program ". So it was a respectable $1.14 an hour raise this year. Problem is that they dropped the ball last year. And the competition is still in front in terms of compensation. And more and more guys are buying their own trucks. There is just so much freight out there. And day in day out we are going into places that are asking us if we know anyone that can get it moved. There is a lot of opportunity if you are willing to take the risk.

We all figure it somehow makes their numbers look better to lose drivers. Being as they not at all in a panic about losing freight or man power. It must all synergize somehow. And make them look like fantastic management experts worthy of monster bonuses.
 
Somewhere out there, there are terminals that are short handed. Might be time to ask your terminal manager for some temporary walk about work.

You got that right HS about guys bugging out to buy their own tractors to be their own bosses. For example we had a 20 plus year vet who quit last year who bought his own tractor and is hauling containers from local ship and rail yards. Another 15 year vet left last week and is doing the same thing. I talked to another old timer with the company and he’s on the verge a buying his own truck and joining that crew.
All that we’re getting to replace these seasoned vets are just kids out of driving school. Not looking good for the company to grow their business!!!
