Web estes said that is true...there are changes coming to lh and he also said 50% of us will like it and 50% of us will not
Extra board is casual workBe nice just to work a full week once in a blue moon.... I feel like I have a casual gig...speaking of gig at least theres the gig economy , uber and GrubHub etc..
There have been a few rumors floating around that there may be plans to change
The way Linehaul is done. Maybe even going to a FedEx model ( all out and back )
Half way meets etc. What Xtraboard they would have will have sleepers and will eliminate motel expenses. Has anyone heard anything about this from management that would know??
You stay out and I will come back home !!If they do a fedex or ups freight way extra board, I dont think to many guys gonna like it because now u have to worry about getting back out once u return to your home terminal depend how they set it up first in, first out or a hog board.
I much rather stay out 5 days in rack up the miles then come back home and hope I get out the next day.
Next yrWhen they going to announce the change instead of it being a secret. I'm okay with more home time and not going out farther than 500 from my home terminal.
Did y’all hear that Amazon bought just the linehaul portion of Estes West?

Don't count on it. My brother is in management at Amazon and doesn't get Prime for free.Lol. Be great if Amazon did. Stay a lot more busy. Maybe I can get my prime membership free and a 20% discount.
The position that your referring to is a ComboI'm looking into a position in Charlotte titled.. Combination Local/Regional Driver
What will this consist of? I'm looking for linehaul and don't mind sleeping out couple nights a week but not really trying to be in a sleeper
That's for all the great info very helpful. By any chance would you know if Charlotte ever hires for extra board? I'm honestly only looking to go right in for linehaulThe position that your referring to is a Combo
Position. Used to be called Utility Driver. This job fills in across the spectrum . Dock , P&D
Hub , and Linehaul. You may work P&D one week, fill in on a hub run the next. The advantage of being Combo is you fill in for scheduled runs and not out all week like the Xtraboard is. Once you get a feel of what you like and a opportunity arises, your combo time can transfer into one of the categories
After spending 90 days in that particular category. In other words, say you get a opportunity to get a hub run. If you run hub for 90 days , then you can transfer your combo time into hub category. Maybe this helps. Linehaul schedule and Extraboard Linehaul Fall under Linehaul category. Hub is it's own category ( drive to hub ,work dock, return to your home Terminal everyday)
And P&D is it's own category also.
