    Well that was very short lived. We get 20 miles down the road and get a msg that we lost that load and now we are back at running short loads WV, MD to PA this makes no sense. How is this running in team mode?

    Is USX a good company to start with? And yes, I know that "good" can mean different things to different people...

    Amen to that!

    I think that's true of any company.

    That's how we run as a team too. We haven't had a big run since that first week...wish we could get some more east to west runs.

    Well 150 miles out they sent us another msg and told us we got the Utah load again. So drive 300 miles or more for no reason, but we are heading west with the load to Salt Lake City. I wanted to post the update that we got the load back but wanted to make sure we had it this time.

    So the trainer and the trainee are running team west word!!!!!

    USX is on my shortlist of places I would drive for I think. However if I have a trainer who is against letting me have access shower everyday that will be an issue. I understand there will probably be days in trucking where it's just not possible but I am sure going to make every effort I can to get a shower everyday.

    That might be a far fetched goal I am not sure.

    All these team complaining about short runs? Duh.. all the good long haul frt goes on the rails.

    NE Vortex? No it's called putting NE to WC loads on train at the Phili rail yard.

    People if you are going to run for a company at least learn there history and how they operate the current business model.
