    Yikes, I sure do hope things get better. I am currently looking for new employment as I have been hardly working. I am lucky to see a 1000 miles a week and I work for an LTL company right now.

    This is definitely the worst I've seen in my lifetime and it's taught me a few lessons that I will apply going forward. I think that anyone that survives this will see good rates later.

    Me too, I had actually started down the road to being debt free about 8 months ago,wish I would've started 2 years ago. If I come out the other end intact I am defintely changing my lifestyle.

    Looks like I'm having to find a different job again due to the fleet-owner not having enough money to pay for 2009 IFTA, tags, registration and whatnot.

    I've got seven months in with him though, along with 13 months of Swift, so hopefully that leads to something.

    But, all this news is really biting, I'll keep plugging away with apps and whatnot.
