Maybe The Politics thread?
Thank You Jess!

The bickering is not necessary, and if it continues, will result in this thread getting shut down!

Consider this the last warning!

The title of this thread is, " Is it really over?"

jarhed started this thread and asked;
Quote:
Is it really over now? Is it that bad that 20 year drivers are handing in the keys? Is everyone sitting for days waiting on loads now? Obviously, no freight means SOMEone isn't going to get to eat that week.

What say you? That bad now?
I was answering His Question.

Plain and Simple, without the "The Bragging part " going on,

SO! I was just " Telling It Like It Is, Out Here!"

No Big Deal. Maybe it is in the wrong section !

Still interested in current drivers' experiences with getting freight and miles. I'll begin a political discussion in the political forum for the rest of the trash that invaded this thread.

This whole thread needs to be deleted off of this forum.!!! No one was informed that this thread was run by only one person.

There is beginning to be Name Calling on the post!

What were the rules about that?

I am a company driver and for the last 4 weeks my miles have been very good. Not sure about others but I am seeing miles like I was running last spring and summer so hopefully it won't be long til it gets better for everyone. I will have to say I will be glad when we get paid more not run more.Lol...........

yeah guys, definitely don't let the complaining about the industry keep you from seeing the rebound. I for one would like to know if it's coming back as we speak. There seems to be some indicators that it is.

I agree with this. I'm trying to put a pattern together in my mind of where it is actually rebounding, however small that rebound might be.

I think that a lot of posters in other threads are right about one thing though. After this "bleaching" of the industry, the stronger, better run companies and O/O's will prevail. Hopefully, that will leave much more freight for them to run (and hopefully, better treatment and pay for all drivers).
