    I was told they are hurting for "good" trainers. So I asked, "Why did you call me?".

    The ads in my local Craigslist jobs section by Swift, CRST, US EXPRESS, Schneider, Gordon, et al, are relentless and overwhelming. It has not been like this since I got into trucking a few years ago now.

    Something is going on and it's not that the economy is that much better, because it is not.

    Perhaps, Scooter, it's the anticipation of the economy getting better that's spurring this activity. Besides, it's spring. People open their wallets in the spring...

    So this new Pepsi contract isn't working out very well I've already been here 3 hours sitting in a door, 3 other trucks have came after me unloading first. I thought we were trying to eliminate probleM shippers and receivers like this
