panhandleswife has every right to be here and every right to respond to your post. Her hubby is having good luck with USA .
I guess you did not. For you just to come on here and say don't work for this company does not tell anybody why you came to this remark. Not everybody is going to like everything about the company they work for. Not everybody knows how to handle problems correctly that they have with a company. If you do not like the place you work you quit and move on. I'm sure there are drivers that have worked for USA and are very happy.
panhandleswife keep up the post on how your hubby is doing. I hope you can give us some do's and don'ts

Four top officials at usa truck sold more than $30 million in stock in February, but at least one analyst says it may not mean anything.
According to a Feb. 22 filing to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Earl Wayne Garrison, board chairman for usa, sold a little more than 1 million shares of the companys stock for $28 million.
Paul Bergant, the firms chief marketing director, reportedly sold more than $2.3 million in stock in three different sales on Feb. 4, Feb. 6 and Feb. 11. Alfred Harper, chief operations officer, sold $1.85 million on Feb. 1, and Jerry Walton, the companys chief financial officer, sold $272,750 worth of stock on Feb. 4.
According to a news release issued March, 3, the companys debt increased from $396 million in December 2006 to $913 million at the end of 2007.

Dont read too much into the transactions, said Donald Broughton, a senior research analyst with Avondale Partners.
Several of uas truck recent stock transactions have come because of executives stock options maturing, Broughton said.

I dont see a pattern in which anything looks that outrageous, as much as this looks like prudent diversification of portfolios and going ahead and exercising options that were set to expire, Broughton said.
J.B. Hunt is performing well among trucking firms muddled in the recently weak shipping economy, Broughton told Land Line.

uas truck and other major carriers have been cutting fleets for some time, Broughton said.

Here is something for you to ponder on Jerry read the following and notice neither shaffer or usa is mentioned as top 10 companies in any of the catagories listed so what does that mean?

The August issue of Commercial Carriers Journal has a ranking of America's top 250 trucking companies. I thought I would share some of this data as that may help drivers when considering what company to work for. The rankings used the following formula:

Revenue + number of vehicles + number of drivers. The "number of vehicles" rank included trucks, tractors and trailers, and also included Owner Operators who were also counted in the driver rank as well. Tractors were weighted against trucks (meaning straight trucks and the like) as they represent a larger capital investment. That component really only matters in the LTL and package carrier segment, as all of the other segments ranked were truckload carriers.
Anyway, the top company in terms of all of the above factors was UPS, with some $49.6 Billion in revenue, 99,900 trucks and tractors, 21,800 trailers and 100,000 drivers. Not much surprise there.

More to the point of users of this site, whom I believe are mostly truckload types, I'll give the top 10 in each of the 4 major segments. I'll give the company's overall rank within the top 250 in parentheses behind their segment rank.

I don't know why you keep talking about usa trucks being slow when we already established last night that usa trucks are faster than schaffer's trucks. why do you insist on putting down usa are you upset that you don't work for them anymore. By the way it is spelled company it is not considered a typo after 50 times
