I just can’t believe we’re facing layoffs at this stage... seems unreal. The economy is still strong, unemployment is almost nonexistent, just doesn’t make sense. Almost seems like a manufactured slowdown.

Check your facts Billy.. only about 10 or 12 this weekend. Was going to but someone crolled of the line guys name. Not a smart move in my opinion. That might cause guys not to work now.

Probably 2009. Conway did the same thing. Over-hired on the thought that YRC was gonna go tits up back then as well. I got hired at Conway during that time, then sat on my ass most of the fall/winter/spring as YRC did NOT go under. Worked a lot of 1 and 2-day weeks for a while, then it picked up for summer.
We’re on a 10 + year bull maket, things will eventually slow. Anyone with half a brain in their head knows this has nothing to do with republicans or democrats.
Go ahead and explain, in detail, how the Democrats taking over the house had even the slightest thing to do with freight being slow. Cmon. I want to hear it. Prove you’re not a complete imbecile.

Only most?
Ain’t let me work no two weekends in a row, we can sign up but linehaul not letting me work
No answer, huh Billy? No surprise there, you’re not exactly the brightest bulb in the box.
I’m so ashamed.Finally free from the closet, White!!
Hope I don’t start stuttering or grow hair on my palms.
I’m sorry to hear that. It’s slow all over I’ve been told. Gotta let them extra board boy’s make some money. Years ago I only ran 2 to 3 runs a week. It was tough. By the way has the city runs been affected?
We can run our 6th day in Indy and dock workers can get 60hrs. We've grown 4% from the same time last year. That's according to mgmt and they said freight was starting to pick back up. I know when I got back today zone 13 which is our inbound freight was 3/4 full and relay zones 2, 3 and 4 were almost full. I pulled 2 loads out of zone 10 last night which is our closed loads and it was full. I know certain lanes out of Indy have been pretty slow the past few weeks but it does seem to be picking up.
