    Well I for one am sick of making 10 cpm less than the YRC drivers! Complete BS! We are the same company now and should be making the same pay!

    I'm surprised Yellow/Roadway still exists out west since Reddaway does it so much cheaper! I never see them hiring out here in southern California. I only see Reddaway jobs posted! But hey, we got some new trucks! Not that I'm driving one though.

    Yeah YRC in my area doesn't hire drivers either. Guess they don't do the west that well. Yeah, I won't see a new truck for awhile.

    When I stopped by Holland in Grand Rapids yesterday to pick up my pee test forms they had what looked like 10-15 new white Freightliner twin screws.
