    Did you guys see GFS just bought Ettline Food Service based in York, PA. They aren't giving up on the Mid Atlantic Region.

    No I didn't. Had never heard of Ettline until now. When GFS starts buying local(to me) companies like Stanz and Piazza then I will become seriously concerned.

    In my opinion food service is more stable you know your gonna work all the time with freight you have the dreaded extra board you have to deal with but as far as pay there pretty equal same with home time in my opinion so take it with a grain of salt

    I like the fact that foodservice doesn't really depend on economy or anything. You have steady work year round especially if you're at a terminal that covers a large area
