I would tend to agree normally, but the growing trend with corporate with regard to their decisions that negatively affect drivers are almost always rooted in “Freight 2020” and “Capital expenditures in TNT Express”.
Those two excuses seem to be the most commonly used when they release bad information internally or to the public. Listen to the last several earning reports that FX released.
Fred Smith is also recently on record as almost being in awe of Old Dominion.

We are super short handed so I would like to come in a Friday to work a 6th day and help out but I just know I'm really not gonna feel like it lol.

Around here the slower guys just tend toward the easier bids. The guys with some hustle go for the big bids if they have the seniority for it.Texas_hwy_287 and FlaSwampRat Thank this. -

Man... I gotta ask. State your region or state and tell us if you are busy or not. Specify if you are at, above, or below average.
I am in SC and we are running at almost half of our usual freight. It's been like this all summer. They are looking for volunteers to take an unpaid week off. This is not going to end well for those of us that just signed on this year.Cardfan89, Gearjammin' Penguin and FlaSwampRat Thank this. -

I made them mad on the dock this morning.
I looked in the trailer this morning and 4 skid spots back from the nose, what do I find?
....A skid of a drum of class 5.1 on the left side, and a skid of 2 drums of class 3 and a drum of class 8 alongside it.
Houston, we have a problem!!
Those 2 skids have to be four feet apart per the segregation chart, and this truck’s not leaving until it’s fixed.
“But, but... That’ll take.... Uh... I didn’t know.....”
I don’t care. You should’ve done it right the first time. Next time read the #### chart.speedyk, misterG, Gearjammin' Penguin and 2 others Thank this. -
