    I was an owner operator with them a few yrs ago. They use to be pretty good to work for. I know a lot of company drivers that do work with them stay on for a long time. I would probably still be there if they didn't pull all of the system owner operators contracts.

    I rode by their terminal in Charlotte yesterday, pretty big yard. There were 3 names on the sign out front including theirs. They had 3 classics sitting that didn't look like they were being used and what looked liked an aero pete on the side. The 3 trucks I saw hooked up with drivers were 379's. I bet everybody wants to Pete when they start..lol

    The ld/unlded pay difference seems the norm with bulk carriers. I work for a competitor of A&R and they do a lot of good runs. Lil ##### sleepers but they get the $ runs. If I had 3yrs I'd be callin.
