    Is anyone else finding this problem? I can't get past all of these companies who are spamming craigslist. Shame. used to be a good source for jobs.

    Companies are US Express, National Carriers, CRST, Knight, Transport America, Western Express.

    Just tryig to find more local work, which is what i thought the web site was about.

    Anyone?

    Yup, i'm in Phx so it's Knight here, i'm moving to kentucky and US express had cowpie'd Lexington's C/L there. My guess the strategy is that people will believe something if they hear it enough...... Politics and Religion are proof to that :biggrin_25522: ha ha i slay, er SAVE me

    It stinks because the whole point of craigs list is to limit the big companies like that from doing what they're doing.

    Flagging works but yea this is a very sad trend specially since 95% of job postings on cl are big companies now. But thats life i guess like you said used to be a decent place to find a good local job now its worthless.
