A new chapter begins and a new home for the Morehouse/fcc orphans

I have to say that so far im impressed with shusters .
They put me in a very nice non smoking non pet truck that is only a year old , so far they are doing everything they said they would and are getting me home .
Alot of my pay at stans was based on bonuses and that isn't the case at shusters so kinda feel I got a raise ...still stay in touch with some people at stans and Morehouse and though the good ole days were good im glad I moved on .
I intend to retire in 3 to 5 years and no way im staying with a company that treats they're drivers poorly at this stage of the game ....I hear things arnt so great at fcc these days either .
My prediction is that fcc will be fine if the market comes back before they are broke but there will be some hard feelings with former drivers and toes they stepped on .
Morehouse from what I hear these days is a world away from my days there and at the age owners are at and with Gerry deceased I wouldn't be surprised to see them cash out .
As for stans well that's a different dynamic...currently they have inept management in place that is creating an environment of employees running out the door from the drivers , shop and office ...they run it like a prison camp although the pay is good .
The management at jack links is being passed down to the next generation and they are going to decide that all the logistics can be handled be a big carrier and they will kick stans to the curb .
Orrrrr as hard as stans pushes they're drivers and especially in bad weather and roads ( that's why I left) they are going to be involved in an ugly accident and end up in a courtroom .
One of those scenarios will probably be they're undoing .

 

Amen ...ain't like this job is a union gig with a pension .

 

Here's an update on shusters about 6 weeks in now.
They arnt perfect but they are pretty dam good and im happy and they get me every weekend .
Last week I was invited to join a dedicated fleet here that hauls for a iowa based farm and ranch store chain making store deliveries from the DC in soiux city iowa .
..1st load was from souix city to a store in soda springs Idaho...easy work ..good pay without the wal mart BS .

 

And still don't miss a dam thing about being on the chain gang at stans lol.

 

Yes its bomgaars .
