That’s the rule I’ve followed since I’ve been on the road...for 20+ years now.My suggestion would be dont be last out anywhere. No extra board unless you are near the top.
We just had ours and the new schedule rolled out this week.any one received the new bids yet?
For the July 14 start date?We just had ours and the new schedule rolled out this week.
The fun has begun looks like west Memphis lost some runs
I know the feeling. I took a chance on a good run but 2nd to last out. In last 3 wks it's been cut all 3 wks except 1 day. Fortunately its vacation season and I run regardless
That's the only real saving grace for me at the minute, vacations keeping me running and a handful of our senior drivers happily sliding their runs down helps also. I guess if they cut my run I'll end up grabbing the 2nd xtra board until the January bid and then take a run with dockwork to float me through the slow season.
Slow season? This is looking like the slow season. I've been told freight is up from last year, but top heavy on drivers. We might need a purge
Being the positive thinking person that I am, my guess is that they made our regular monthly “round table meeting” mandatory so they could officially introduce our new RDA to everyone...but what do I know??Before we get too wrapped up in any “purge” talk let’s see what the mandatory meetings are about this week in certain locations. We have one in CLT and it may have nothing to do about anything of the sort. They MIGHT have over-hired in some locations because it was expected the economy would continue to grow at the fast rate it was on.
