Does freight really slow down?

What total ignorant drivel. Do you have an education of any type? Font bother replying, I've ignored you so as not too catch whatever stupid you're trying to infect the rest of us with.

I would rebut your facts, but you didn't provide any.

 

I was stuck in Laredo for a few days,and never seen so many bobtails,hanging around.
Easy to see there is no freight,when you see bobs everywhere.

 

About 75% of our outbound freight comes from the factories in Mexico. They shut down during the holidays as the workers go home for two weeks during Christmas. We do have a definite slowdown this time of year.

 

He posted plenty of stuff for you to refute if you wanted to instead of being condescending.

 

Yeah stuff, that's being generous. I thought of another s word. I said facts. People somehow get the two confused.

 

To darthanubis. This is a community forum. Last I checked, it was a place to voice opinions, facts, and lies and hear-say, and everything in between. If you have "facts" to refute anything I said, I imagine we'd all love to hear them so we could feel better. But I suspect anything you might have to say would only be opinion as well, but maybe you in fact have the ability to see into the future and can report "facts from the future" and I will respectfully bow to your special powers.

 

As for the thought that people have to eat, that is true, but they become frugal with their purchases. They buy less, eat out less. Even refer freight slows down during a recession. Trucking is not any more secure as a job than any other job, as for every driver that quits, there are 100 others to take his place.

 

I don't give a flying flip what you said, he made assertions you could refute if you had anything worthy to say. You obviously don't so I guess we can move on and you can continue to sit there and flick boogers at the teacher.

 

If you go with a mega carrier with a high turnover rate which is all the starter companies be prepared to hear alot, freight is slow no matter what month it is.

 

"Drivel" is a word exclusively used by pompous meanies. Don't be a pompous meanie.
