Thanks Racer, ya helps alot.. last string of q's... Do you like FXN? and would you advise the switch from conway.. i currently dislike my job work waaay to hard to make 55k last yr and just frankly cant put up with the bs anymore for 48cpm... sooo whats your personal feelings?
Last question i can think of right now also is relaying into kent wa im assuming thats a hub? and is there dock work going to be involved on that end you think? or will be a turn out of the service center? how does running into a hub usually work?
Thanks again racer i was more worried on layoffs then slowing down in the winter, thats expected, big time also on coming out of SLK since there is alot mnts standing in the way that get heavy snow and close alot..

WOW Your wearing me out..
First Question...I plan to retire here if possible, it is the best job I ever had, aside from the politics that go along with these big copirations......
Second.....You drop and hook in Kent(provided your freight is ready), no dock work.....
Third.... These run from SLK are preferred run, so they are all senior well seasoned drivers. if they can get there they will
Fourth..... You are currently working, so I do not want to encourage you to make a decision based on my opinion. I am pretty well informed on this lane, but you are the one that will live and die by the results....You know the LTL Environment as well as the rest of us, I am only telling you how things are today....Will they change in this lane, I don't think so, but you are the one that has to live with the decision. All I can add is this is a $70,000 position with no time missed, so take a Little off of that for winter... The rest is anybodies guess.
