A lot of companies you couldn't even do that. You'd be gone. Screw your 40.Idk about freight, but there are less bills at the strip desk at POS. A lot of times I push a broom to finish my shift.

I’m not getting in a pissing contest about who lied. Obviously you haven’t been in the LTL industry very long. It has its ups and downs. Right now it’s a little off from normal. It’s not just here it’s all LTL’s.
How long have you been in the LTL business...5-6 years?? Freight comes and goes, it’s part of the business...and we’ll get through it like we always do. Your “guess” is wrong, if you believe China and the trade tariffs have anything to do with our freight levels then I have some ocean front property in KNX I’ll sell ya...cheap!! Turn off the TV and quit reading opinion articles on the net, it’s all BS!!I'm kind of scratching my head wondering how long you have been in the ltl business. I don't remember freight slowing down for everyone even though the economy is booming. My guess is the China deal is finally slowing everything down no other scenario really makes sense.

I'm curious too! 4 guys outta 15 sat home last night....so what givesAs always you are guessing once again on how long I have been in this business. Freight does come and go so does the economy, but freight usually does not drop substantially when the economy is strong. So tell us einstein what's the reason for slow down if it's not the China tariffs? There is a reason for slow down and I'm not buying the ole freight comes and goes bs.
CLT city is running within a couple of percent of last year as far as pickups. Last year was a record year. The difference is we hired enough drivers so that guys can take their vacations and personal time now. Also no one in the city is having to work 14 hour days now. The lowest seniority guys may not get all 8 hours driving, but they have the option to work dock to get it just like the rest of us did at first. Quit yer bitchin.
THAT is unusual for July. Uncertainly on tariffs & interest rate adjustments, lack of understanding on tariffs, media hype/disinformation, and nonsensical political resistance likely the underlying cause. I don't have all the answers. Not sure anyone does.I'm curious too! 4 guys outta 15 sat home last night....so what gives

Although most of the senior guys tend to stay put, jumping around on the bi-annual July bid is pretty common...for various reasons.Whatever the reason there is a lot of uncertainty. Many drivers on CLT road board jumped to other runs. Hell I heard that many paychecks had been opened by nervous nellies !
Did you eat all the waffles??!!I don’t have ALL of the answers but I have slept at a Holiday Inn Express!!

Opening someone else’s paycheck/stub is BS and should lead to termination IMO (but FXFE has become way to soft for that) but going paperless would also alleviate the problem.
Slow at YRC friend at Old Dominion same thing slow
I could tweet Satish, and have him weigh in with some of his paid for consulting? Like, yes BRG, we are seeing a sluggish economy right now, which could affect 2nd quarter earnings...Don't go getting technical on us "freight comes and goes". I am heading to Knoxvile to look at some ocean front property.
Will that affect the kind of flying carpets you provide?I could tweet Satish, and have him weigh in with some of his paid for consulting? Like, yes BRG, we are seeing a sluggish economy right now, which could affect 2nd quarter earnings...
