    I just heard on local news that c.r.bean co. will decide this week weather or not to shut down for good.Now they are not a huge company but employ several hundred people in the fort smith and amity arkansas area.I had a friend who worked there and they were supposed to be a decent co.At least they are giving some warning for their workers.Hopefully it will work out for them.

    I just unloaded in Harrision AR. with one of their drivers, according to him he is the last one on the road and will be heading to Ft.Smith to turn in his truck when he is empty. The company offically ceased operations on Friday March 12th.
