Ok, all I hear is about how much money we pay out in claims. Allegedly, we pay out more in claims per day than if we would buy a new tractor each day.

Yet, we all see freight literally crammed into trailers every night. Apparently no one cares about that.

Then consider, how many guys sit at home each night, for lack of a run?

How about this:

Floor load everything (or as much as possible)
Therefore, nothing gets damaged.
If that were the case, more trailers/drivers would be utilized.

Then, with nothing jammed in, nothing gets damaged, hence = no claims paid out.

Also, then guys would be working every night.

Do you think that Con-Way would pay more out in payroll in a situation like that than they already do in damage claims?

Of course, bear in mind I'm an idiot.

Thanks.

You're not allowed to state the obvious, didn't you get the memo about the big picture.

Con-Way end of month report for January, 2007 states that Con-Way Truckload is pulling 25% of our freight. This probably has something to do with drivers sitting at home. You can read this at Con-Wayfreight.com.

They are not going to change the truckload carriers hauling the freight back to pups... With this unchangable fact I would rather see CWTL pulling the freight than a Werner or CR England. At least the money stays in the company. That reflects in our profits as a corporation...
