Random LTL Rants (all are welcomed)

You all have goofy gear too? See it’s the same everywhere you go lol!

 

Not sure if everyone nationwide went on strike but sysco in Denver did. Not trying to compare Foodservice to non physical driving job but to be paid as much as UPS package job is pretty good for how hard they work. I feel it’s where all Foodservice jobs should be paid.

 

All of ours are spec'd the same. It's part of the Dayton Difference!

 

Curb side is thought to be safer. That said now you have to step around the front corner , when it may be hard to see traffic coming . Can argue on ether side on that issue.

 

That's from the old Consolidated Freightways Days remember XPO was Con-Way Freight which was Conway Central Express, which was a regional LTL carrier formed by Consolidated Freightways in the 1980s.

 

Ughhh working a sixth day today and next week. Really don't want to but I had to cover vacations.

 

That's like with FedEx, our trailers could have come from American Freightways, Viking Freight, or Watkins Motor Lines/FedEx National. Then there's also FedEx Freight Canada trailers that sometimes end up south of the border.

 

BUT.....
Money Money Money

 

Of course, a new dispatcher gets put into my bidded hub the week I give my notice. And of course, it’s a dispatcher that wants to run my ### ragged with freight.
But, like anything with FedEx, if it’s awesome, it will come to an end shortly.
