    Not sad to see Convoy go away one little bit.

    Good. A few more Mega Cheapskate Brokerages need to go next. Too much BS like Tracking with half a dozen phone calls on top of it, from people that can barely speak English. Add texting, and emails that are expected to be monitored, often containing important info needed. I’ll take an old school dispatcher with common sense over all these idiots. They’re a pita. I’ve lost patience dealing with them. They’re Unprofessional. Good Riddance.

    JB Hunt was an excellent source of loads until they got new management year and a half ago or so….. so screw them.

    It’s only going to get worse, freight rates aren’t going to get any better anytime soon, the war in the Middle East will keep fuel prices inflated, small to medium size Carrie’s are shutting their doors everyday.

    Don’t believe the senile guy spouting Bidenomics. Home foreclosures are at an 8 year high, same with car repossessions, and defaults on credit card debt. This economy sucks, but of course you won’t see that anywhere on MSM.
