    As far as I understand, daeske is just an umbrella company... all companies under the daeske name are run independently... so working for wylie is different than cotc as well as spd, etc etc.....that is the way I understand it , although I could be wrong.

    I'm not sure why it's so hard to understand that snackbar had a bad experience at wylie and now the company he's working for is merging with them... that would upset me as well if I was in his position. The whole point of quitting a company is to get away from them...there is way to many trucking companies out there looking for work, that pay real good, to be stuck at a company you hate working for..

    Man, I don’t check this thread for a week or so and it’s all broken loose. I’m sorry, SSB…I know you’ll land on your feet. But I’m like you…I’ve got until next September in my current truck, then unless something changes for the better industry-wise, I’m done. Been putting a little money away as I currently have no rent or mortgage, and I’ll be able to thumb my nose at the whole mess.
    Good luck!

    Boy Wylie doesn’t mess around. Heavy equipment in Wichita to level out the rest of our Available yard space, we currently only us about half of what we have.

    6 new all aluminum trailer on the ground in Washington. 53’ Aluminum Rit’s with a sliding rear axle. Not sure if these are trailers we’ve had on order for a while or if they were purchased off a dealer lot. They have a tool box, dunnage holder, and rope hooks. Options that are all handy, but not on our current trailers.

    So you're admitting that this is all your fault? ;)

    OH THE HUMANITY! First he lures poor SSB to his doom and now he's burning another man's bacon?! This insanity must stop before someone gets hurt! :)

    Our trailers don’t have any thing but numbers on them. We don’t really leave trailers in mixed company pools at shippers. ECAFFB13-9B5F-47B8-85AC-139C98108C0D.jpeg
