    Yes they are and and there is absolutely unequivocally no way in live in hell that management and Lincoln doesn’t know what’s going on with all these problems I’m quite certain their phones have been ringing off the hook with complaints from everybody across the board but yet nothing‘s being done which demonstrates to me they don’t care whatsoever… Those folks up there in Lincoln are salaried employees and they could care less what happens out here… They’ll put on a act to act like they give a darn but they’re in action in nearly 7 weeks since this crap started really shows the truth

    I sat 3 full days at greeley and kicked and screwed twice a day on peoplenet and calla to get me the hell off... had some words with terminal afterwards but if you don't see a trailer number in the pre assignment you are gambling with your time at least in my experience at greeley... not fun and that tiny truck stop down the road charges but there's a diner around those overpasses I stay out better than outside the fence waiting for a drunk driver to give you a friendly nudge while sleeping awaiting that phone call to release you from being held hostage!

    Question: being harassed to do hazmat litmos watch videos and pass q/a but required to be on duty during the whole process which is an hour or more... how come this isn't paid? It's taking away from your 70 hour so called drive or money maker time?.Magnum out of Fargo used to Pau use 50 or 75 for doing this quarterly hazmat video?

    Since when do you have to be on duty? Had to do that stuff 5 times, never logged it, never heard anything. You get safety points for it. Pay would be nice, we get paid for peeing in a cup, not sure why not this.

    What’s the answer if the planning staff is not up to par due to lack of experience? I only see calling back old employees at whatever cost it takes, or waiting for slow improvement.

    If it’s as bad as it sounds, slow improvement is not an option. They must be losing money on the inefficiency along with the drivers.

    Edit: or maybe they don’t have the loads given the slowdown.

    Been sitting 60 hours now, mostly due to arrive a little more than a day earlier to drop my empty off in hopes JBS got it back to me sooner.

    Just chilling at the Petro place off 25 and eating at the sit down restaurant. Not bad but not great.

    I'll simply be getting detention for sitting but that caps at 10 hours.
