This is a re-post; just trying to help. Seems not.
LBD or Agent; doesn't really seem to matter according to this. Be careful and safe, Driver.
"Not enough freight movement to cover all contractors
Contractor (Current Employee) – Ohio – October 13, 2015 to now.
I currently have a lease truck And have a contract with them.
My truck is not making any money matter fact I'm $2500 in the hole and my credit rating has plummeted 100 points my bills are stacked up and I'm teetering on bankruptcy. You can't run 700 miles sit two days and then run another 800 miles and sit three days for a load, I have a family and responsibilitys . I left a great job with great benefits to come over here and what a mistake, if you're considering Road Runner slap yourself and MoveOn.
Pros
None
Cons
$225, 000 to the truck, that's a lie .. ie: no freight"
Seems Wile E Coyote won . . . -
G13Tomcat Thanks this.

Its no lie. They have no freight and keep hiring drivers to try and cover the cost of all these trailers they have leased into their trailer pool and the trucks they cosigned that are sitting, abandoned from drivers that quit.
