    Couple of execs got caught and charged with fraud. Gas cards were shut off with drivers trying to get home. Gave them instructions on where to drop their equipment in exchange for a bus ticket.

    Actually the execs got caught over a year ago funneling 60 mil out of the company, new management/turn around team came in last year to try and save the company, supposedly they were doing so,so but speculation is the GM strike for over 40 days killed their chances of pulling it out, story I read any way, fuel cards were shut off as a means to keep drivers from selling fuel, BUT, allegedly there is a number to call to get enough fuel to get home, that's all I got?

    I haven’t seen anything else yet. I was just curious if anyone else knew more, like yourself.

    I’ve just recently actually started really paying attention to the transportation industry since I’m making a career change in the next 6 months
