    I wonder if hotel costs are the next trending debate for those of us that layover.
    My company (praxair)is cracking down on where we overnight and is demanding we use a lower class of hotel, and it's not going over well. Most guys are telling management NO to layovers if they are not allowed to stay at a motel of their choosing.

    They aren't. My friends in west texas just came back home from being out a month. The dispatchers were probably just doing you greasy.

    We did away with laydowns the moment the government stopped letting companies write them off.

    ABF started talking about that immediately, and has done little to nothing about it.

    Very good. I have zero complaints. I recently switched over to a new bid, and it's a big step up in money. Just chilling with my dogs over coffee on a fine Saturday morning now.

    Well, it's a run with two stops. Anonymity and all. Averaging $2200 a week on it thus far.
     
    Dennixx, jtaran06, 59EX and 1 other person Thank this.
