Ok. Many may already know this, but now Covenant is making some really hardcore changes as of late to CTG as a whole. Mostly, I'll still be running with SRT however, Covenant, SRT, Star and Landair will now be running under the same DOT number come the turn of the new year. According to a call I received earlier this week, the new rule is now that we will be "required" to team or train under the new merger. Seeing as I am a dedicated account driver, that is not of me. So I guess I am a lucky dog after all. I will keep up the updates as I go and as always keep with my previous one year post as well.
Oink, oink.

USXpress did something like that right around the Great '08 recession. Their options were go team, buy one of their trucks or they would buy you a bus ticket to a destination of you choice in the lower 48. The company I was working for back then had several drivers in orientation that week from USX that chose option 3. Sounds like a similar situation shaping up at Covenant.

I would not be surprised. Combine 3 or 5 sick companies into one DOT number, fill out one tax form per year on the whole company now a really big group of still sick companies.

When they understand the exact nature of the illnesses making the whole former group sick currently even under one DOT number that is when they will quietly cut off the deadwood and burn it. Emphasis on quietly.DoubleO7, DustyRoad, Jarhed1964 and 1 other person Thank this. -

Not to mention that we are also taking on some of the displaced Celadon drivers as well. I found out that TEL leased trucks to Celadon and they were getting them all back. I've met two drivers who've decided to stick it out here at CTG.

I see that SRT is closing the Texarkana Terminal and moving everything to Chattanooga. Laying off 150 people. No drivers. Any of you SRT guys know when then are going to shut it down?
