| Sad part is it can be described in 1 word globalzation....i dont like it u dont like it but unless u got more money then bill gates u wont even slow it down....this is where companies like toyota were seeing what was coming and got a head start when they moved into the US. You talk about deregulation...seems like if we continue to go this way were going back to deregulation |

They don't own any trucks and pull some of the better paying freight in the country. Their stock has consistently grown about 10-18% annually for years.

| Update several Alvan drivers were taken on at 3 of our Michigan locations - as well as many of the dock hands in the South Bend area... many more in Indy have found work at fed ex (hub ops) - since this thread began several more companies have filed for chapter 11 - Jim Palmer was the largest - and will be continuing ops in a limited mode. (reminds me of when Dick Simon went under) I have heard some rumors - but can not verify that some of the old Alvan locations will be bought by RnL - which would be kinda weird since they are not exactly "doing well" right now... dunno - strange days now = how this all applies to this thread - and its pavement in the Teamster / OOIDA section... Jim Palmer was a company the HIGHLY encouraged their drivers to be OOIDA members - and even allowed OOIDA reps to place info packs in the orientation handbooks - and pamphlet hangers on the walls of their two main terminals in Salinas Ks. and Missoula Mt. I had heard more than once from JPT drivers that they considered themselves "almost unionized" since the majority of their drivers were members of OOIDA - all to no avail I fear - in these times no membership or affiliation can save you or your company when the bankruptcy demons come a knockin'...
