    Glad I don’t have to worry about that anymore. Did get my exercise doing the “looking for an empty shuffle”, though. Especially when I was local & had to do it several times a day.

    Let’s put this in Johnboy perspective. Trucking is tanking, you did away with my yearly longevity raise because of “belt tightening” you bought a near bankrupt competitor that should have been bought for pennies on the dollar, but instead bought them for $5 per share higher than what it was worth on the open of business the day of acquisition, and I’m suppose to care about you missing your projections? I know, “team player” right? We do make a great team. I do my job 70 hours a week, safely and on time, you deposit my pay every Friday morning at 2am. What a team we make. Go pound sand.

    The greatest lie the Devil ever told was convincing the American worker that they and management are on the same team.

    I try to believe we are at times, then I realize the management revolving door starts up and changes a seat warmer every 3 weeks.
     
    Lonesome, Bumper and Finfn1372 Thank this.

    I don't know the logistics behind it,but I wonder how long it can go on like this.
    I hear we don't have freight in Richmond,now I'm starting to hear it out and about.
    I'd like to hold on,but there's only so many times you can hear we don't have anything.
     
    JohnBoy Thanks this.
