    Pretty much lol. Check this out tho. Apparently you can hop around on runs now. It may just be Memphis shenanigans, but you don't have to stay on a run 90 days before you swap. Now, it's you get a run, don't like it, get another one immediately. What kind of bs is that?

    Yeah dude like when has that ever been the standard? I have my suspicions, but this is the foolishness I be talking about.

    Different rules for different terminals! It's always been like that.

    I’m a P&D driver but like to occasionally like to do LH for the somewhat long haul trucking I miss from my OTR days. That being said, is the Joliet terminal a hellhole for anyone else here? Seems like I can’t ever spend less than an hour there. Meanwhile the old hellhole terminal, Chicago 028, has been an absolute joy for me. Also really liked Elgin from the short time I was there.

    You're not the only one lol. They moved all the heavy operations to joliet and that's why. Mccook is technically like A local terminal now. Outside of the potholes, it's usually a smooth experience. I got soaking wet last time I was there. Stupid weather lol

    028 wasn’t always a joy.

    Oh you mean rolling in and breaking down on fuel island cause there was no where to even move? Then spending an hour looking for your pups and a place to slam them together?
