Jevic Transportation Closing The Doors

It also stipulates only hourly and salary workers are eligible.

I think the drivers are screwed, but we'll see I guess.

 

Wow! just like that!
Peeps, get ready,this is just the beginning. I hope everyone has somewhere to go. Get somewhere and hunker down.
This is not the last company to fall victim to the times.

 

Man, I think Sarge is right...I'm just getting started in the industry and already the almost daily rising price of diesel has me concerned! What the %$#* is going on in this Country? People are just sitting back and accepting this! I think we as Americans need to go on a gas strike and send a serious message to these oil companies. Imagine this...as crazy as it may sound...if everyone in this Country would NOT BUY FUEL for 1 day imagine the shockwave that would send through the system? Ah, that's just my 2 cents. Hey, unions can go on strike for unfair wages and that seems pretty darn effective! These oil companies got the upper hand and it seems as if everyone is just layin' back and dealing. Get the KY dear...it just went up 10 more cents!!

 

Nope, I think we as Americans need to wake up to the fact. The free ride is over.

Market controls pricing. We couldn't really expect 3rd world countries, to remain 3rd world players. With China on line, and they are make no mistake, it (gas) will only go higher.

China's expected growth is 12% annually for the next 15-20 years. Analyst have projected at this rate, China will require ALL availiable oil on the market to maintain this growth, within 10 years.

People whine about it taking 10 years to get results out of areas we want to drill. NOW is the time to start...not later.

 

Meeting for Jevic’s dislocated workers being held Tuesday in New Jersey

Why does every trucking company that goes out of business cite fuel and insurance costs as the reason for going out of business?

They should just say the truth which was poor management of the company. Everyone is paying high fuel and insurance costs, so why aren't they all shutting down If it is for reasons not unique to Jevic.

The state is investigating why they did not give notice to the employees of the impending closer. Which I guess is against the law in their state.

How can people say a company is great and treats their employees good etc.. when they don't even have the decency to tell their own employees that they are in trouble and may go under?

Jevic is just another OTR company that serviced the customer to the end, at the expense of their own

 

Well to my surprise the brothers I know who drove Jevic for 10 years or so had a couple Zumstein rigs at their place this weekend (west cental OH ). Man that was quick. Trucking is unpredictable.

 

I worked for Jevic out of Delanco N.J. for 8 years and retired from there It was a great co to work for . Harry sold it to some other co shortly after I left ....sad to know its gone

 

I saw a cabover International with Jevic Transportation on the side, pulling containers in Houston recently.
