Cheeseman Trucking, Fort Recovery, Ohio

Well good luck, and keep us updated on your progress.

 

I will keep that in mind. I know there is a truckstop not far from there, and of course the wal-mart.

 

Well with all do respect when I was on paper logs, just about every day I could get 650 miles on daily basis. Now my best day has been 545 miles. I'm not a mathematical genius by any stretch of the imagination, but I have gone from bringing home over $1000 a week after all deductions to not making more then $ 750 bring home. We had fiver drivers quit this week out of the S.C. teriminal, and more are ready to head for z hills. I will try and hang on until the end of the month, but if things don't improve I will have no option, but to start looking AGAIN.

E logs might not be bad in a truck load scenario, but in a LTL gig it kills your 14 everyday and in my opinion that is where the money is lost.

 

You are correct. If I was running truckload or coast to coast e logs wouldn't be such a bitter pill to swallow, but in the LTL industry to keep drivers they are either going to have to increase the mileage pay or increse the stop pay to make up for the loss in money.

 

I will either leave out tonight at 9pm when my 34 reset is up, or get up at 0300 and head to Andover, Ma.. I have a 0700 appt. Tuesday morning so I guess I will make my decision after the second playoff game tonight. I'm glad im headed North this week instead of down South that way I don't have to deal with that snow and ice storm that's taking place today and tomorrow. I hope everyone has a safe and productive week.
