    Ok so time for a update the Savannah yard closes on the 31st. I got an offer and left last Thursday as my last day.

    That said I very much enjoyed my time there and would still be there if not for them closing the only terminal in my area.

    I can't say much as to how the York, pa operations team runs there drivers except me and the 3 other drivers that were hired for flatbed did not know we were going to pull a flatbed the rest quit within the first month.

    I made 50cpm loaded and empty+ 35$ to tarp. Home every other day and weekends, APU, inverter, and fridge in all trucks mostly Volvo 680s but some Prostars /w Cummins.

    Personally knowing what I know now I would stay away for awhile and see if they make it through the celadon #### storm before signing on with them if you live in there hiring area.

    They are restructing or something. Heads are rolling all over the place atm.

    I don't want to keep job hoping so as long as my miles stay right I'll stick it out.

    A&S and Kinard used to be two separate companies.

    I'm close enough to York to consider going with them, but this is the first I'm hearing of Celedon coming in and messing everything up.

    It's not enough that everyone knows to avoid the megas, now they're buying up pre existing, FUNCTIONAL companies to cover up their corporate mediocrity.

    Might as well put the gun to my head and apply to Schneider now.

    Everyone will be a pumpkin eventually. (And pulling Amazon trailers! Hah! Even Orwell couldn't picture a world so bleak.)

    It's funny, we used to be bombarded with USX ads on our local Craigslist, now it's all Hogan.
