[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 2010226, member: 58386"] Can you really put a lot of stock in what the drivers at a given terminal will tell you? It helps to survey those drivers but can they give you an accurate labor picture? You need to check the demograhics and labor statistics for the area you're interested in . If the money and benefits you're offering isn't competitive with what others are offering and you don't have a large labor pool to begin with which is exactly the trouble we had in the area I live in, then if one guy were to quit abruptly and we all know about how little prior notice they give you then the proverbial " next man up " may be no where to be seen. You're only as good as the guy behind the wheel's dedication to the task of protectng the contractor's interests. [/QUOTE]
