Unfortunately this will become common every year for both companies, as more and more people ship vs shopping local for the holidays both companies are going to have to come up with better operating plans.
our Volume tripled on the 21st, 23rd, and 24th, and actually for the 24th it might have been quadrupled since we still have CTV/RTV trucks sitting outside FULL, including 1/2 of our interior parking is taken up by packages sorted on the floors belts and anywhere else it will fit.
Short of having more FT employees who get used less in the off season, I can't see how our location could have improved, we all ran about 200% capacity on routes. short doubling staff by use of cartage agents (most of which are useless hiring family members as cartage agents should be forbidden, nepotism anyone?)
