[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 4014735, member: 8481"] He told you about small package, not freight. All of the above. It varies by job. Where I am, we have more 9 to 10 hour jobs than 8 or 12, but we have them all. From just yard work to 600 miles. We have more 300 to 350 mile jobs than 100 or 600. Some do, but the majority breaks their set down and builds their outbound set. Some only pull singles and some pull triples. Some even just bobtail. And quite a few jobs have to wait for their loads when they get to their destination. Some buildings make them shift in the yard for some of that wait time. At other buildings, it's nap time. We don't have dock work. We don't have dock work like freight has. All our trailers are hand loaded by part timers, with a few exceptions. We're either driving, sleeping, shifting in the yard or swapping trailers at a customer account. [/QUOTE]
