Look at the XPO hiring website, drive4red.com... They're hiring hundreds of drivers in areas where we already have a large imprint,(ie; Plainfield, IN, Columbus, Oh, Portage/Gary, IN), and thousands nationwide. Qualifications don't mention anything about doubles endorsement or Hazmat requirements. Looking for Regional and local, servicing 250 mile radius. I see this as a sign that linehaul is going to drastically change. Big city operation with all dock work being done by contracted SPHIRON like employees. A skeleton crew on linehaul being heavily supplemented by our regional and local linehaul department. Get to your FAC and wait, off the clock, for your loads back. Most likely a seven day operation as well. Probably a few of the smaller facilities closed as well as those areas will now be serviced by our local (250 mile radius) department. I'm not really trying to be a doomsday fanatic, just trying to read the writing on the wall.

Some UPS guys have mentioned that their " line haul " got gutted after they bought Coyote Logistics. Maybe Skeeter and his buddies could lend some insight ? And UPS is way bigger than Coyote. But XPO is way bigger than Con-way. So, I am believing your assumptions to be pretty valid.

Cautiously optimistic. They have been trying to sell this mess since before I got hired in. I am ready for anything.
