"Hang in there!"
At our hub last year we bid 177 feeder runs. This year we bid 150. Since bid they have cut at least 5 runs. We've addressed, re-addressed, re-re-addressed this at committee meetings and the company always has an answer. There seems to be alot of drivers from other areas coming in to retrieve loads that we would normally pull. Company says they have the right because they are bypass loads. We've been told it is because of the volume but the numbers don't justify that argument. I think it is our management's unwillingness to fight to keep the work in our barn. Other hubs have the people who are willing to fight for the work. I know the packages are down and times are tough but the numbers that are shown do not justify the cuts that have been made.
