    They'll have their pretty red panties on even when they're not ready for bed.

    Locally we are still steady, but company wide it feels like panic mode. They are already cutting back on everything they can like no family day this year and stuff like that. I've had a good month running dedicated but I know guys that tried doing system and got stuck places for days on end before finally just deadheading home. Its probably going to be like 2015 where its not a full blown recession but slow and steady. All the newer guys that started during the boom are in for a rude awakening.

    Y’all act like you have no idea that economies go in cycles ?

    the federal government doubles interest rates in less than a year , right after fuel prices spiked .

    the federal government WANTS the economy to slow down .
    That’s why they doubled the interest .
