    Its a shame as I worked there years ago when old man Oakley was still alive right after he thru Johnny off the property and we ran and had equipment to run. I went back for a little while right when Tommy hired that guy from the freight or reefer company and he changed everything around and they went to load planners and dispatchers just handed out paperwork and had about 30 some drivers apiece,and he was trying to cut out the deadhead and any one who has ever pulled food grade tank knows that is impossible.

    Yes, you already made your point with the other thread USA. You are just cluttering the forum up with repeat threads.

    Actually it's a useless thread, flaming a company with no reason to why. If I let it go, eventially every company would be listed by some disgruntled driver.


    I'll merge the two together.

    The Oakley I have been talking to is. Bruce Oakley. (Out of NLR, AR) Pneumatics, hopper bottoms and dumps. We are (finally) about to buy our own truck... and they are on our short list.
