    Ask Gordon or Interstate what song and dance they were told?
    This isn’t Heartlands first time buying a good company. Not mine either, I retired from a paper plant with 26 years.
    I’ve seen 19 of these with us buying them.
    All we wanted was the customer base period. We kept some equipment laid off the employees sold the buildings in all cases but 6 of the 19.
    You can’t have 2 chefs running the kitchen!!!
    Besides Dave said and I quote “ The ownership structure here could not be addressed to allow continue operation without a merger!
    Retirement? Kids don’t want to do it?
    Who’s kid? A fight?
    In that quote is the reason it was sold.
    You watch it’s almost September I give it January then the new rules will start.
    No toll roads, no idling, back road routes you must take. They had that much cash by making drivers lives horrible
    That had cash except for 750k and the brothers were given stocks.
    Millis will be assimilated!!

    Hey, I didn't disagree with anything that has been said, and I think the boat will slowly start to sink like most others, I just asked if those changes had been announced.

    Didn't mean to piss anyone off.

    Had a friend that worked for Heartless for 4 years..said he finally.left because they could never get him home on time for home time. Also you are expected to turn your truck in if your home more than 4 days

    The kids sold HO Wolding up here when Herbie died , sad he was in the office until he was almost a 100.

    Then the kids cashed out , they started with wagons hauling milk and beer and blood sweat and tears.

    A&A Express out of Brandon SD did the same thing when they sold to Roadrunner.
