    I agree it will probably effect our SS too. With loans and credit I always can prove what I bring home so usually that's not an issue. Drivers should have a choice if they want to take it or not.

    Folks should have their own retirement account and stop depending on ss

    Quick update. Ashley did some work on the people net unit and that seems to be helping with load scheduling. Also talked to some other drivers and found out something I was doing wrong. Last few weeks have been back to the way it should be. Pay checks are good. Thank God! I really didn't want to leave but will if necessary. This will be my last post in here about Ashley. I'm thinking about starting a new thread on the adventures at Ashley. Will see..
