    You all make me laugh! The L/Os I met were, in fact, happy with Gordon, in part because they never had to worry about their next load. Gordon has tons of freight. Your next load is always on your QC when or before you make your delivery. At least one has multiple trucks. But it's no get rich scheme.

    Well victor you've been trying to get people not avoid Gordon and you fail at every turn. Maybe that's what's funny is your personal crusade against a company you weren't cut out for is falling flat.

    Ha-ha. Someone's on a personal crusade. Don't think it's me, though.

    I have been with gti over 4 years and have met a lot of l/o and they are all happy. Some even lease new trucks as well as older ones. Guess it depends on what you want to pay. I have met some who said they were not forced dispatched but could refuse loads. One guy said he does not pull any load over 30k but whether that is correct or not i don't know. Didn't buy him lunch so he might have been deceiving me...

    Well, pattj, joseph does see me as a sort of 'sparring' partner, now doesn't he? He has his 1/2000 and I have my 1/2000 of experience with Gordon. (2000 trucks.)

    tow614, it was over on the 'cesspool' piss contest. And it was funny.

    One complained of the heavy loads he got but we were up at Shasta Lake getting loaded really light with insulation. It would be like Gordon to push heavy loads onto the L/Os, who pay their own fuel.

    Older and wiser... less braggadocio. Have had an interesting life, nothing to prove to the 'youngster' josephs around here.

    /At the Burger King in Spencer, IN. Long conversation with a local guy, very highly successful local but 'just folks' type businessman. Built an ice cream parlor, pizza place, grocery store, dollar store, car wash, trailer sales. His best quote, "Find work you like and you'll never have to work a day in your life... "
