    My cousin’s husband is a mechanic there. The company won’t even pay to clean his uniforms. I was blown away when he told me that.

    I am plan to buy fleet of 2011-12 tractors(emissions only) and some older dry vans(retread tyres). I have lots of relatives who will drive for me on the 1099. With a lead like this Joey I will become rich truck business tycoon, like you my good friend.

    Well after this new found (to me anyway) information that the flippin fed owns a whopping 30% of yellow my guess they ain't goin' nowhere!

    Probably the safest place to be if it all falls apart.

    I am still blown away, disappointed, kinda shocked, oddly intrigued, mostly irritated by this.

    I feel like that should have made some news somewhere on a much larger scale.

    But then again we all know our news cares more about 5 rich guys than 700 poor ones.

    Yea I see the Washington Post article now but I that is really all that comes up and I don't recall seeing it on any major media outlets. And I watch them all....

    Maybe I just didn't care? But man that seems like a story that would have kinda baffled me and one I would remember.

    Get a brokerage company too and don't pay on any loads. Then disappear with 800k give or take.
