    Interesting read. Nice post. Thanks. It's nice that at least some laws are written with the working people in mind. In a bankrupcy case, the only thing in line before the IRS is worker's pay.

    Good that he served some time anyway..
    The whole thing was a tragedy. It was sad how all those drivers were left stranded.
    Maybe even more justice will be served.

    Are the chickens coming home to roost in Big Fleet boardrooms?

    California Suit Alleges Schneider Shorted Drivers on Wages, Mileage, Benefits - Truckinginfo.com

    If Doug got 30 hours in the hoosegow for every bad check he signed, how much time do you reckon he'd do?

    Bad-check charges against ex-Arrow Trucking CEO dismissed | Tulsa World


    Hagens Berman is a huge firm that specializes in class action lawsuits. They have a long list of successful campaigns and I imagine they have a pant-load of dough to play around with. Regardless, these two cases against Swift and Schneider must be costing a fortune. Are they throwing shif against the wall to see if any sticks, maybe somebody offers to settle, or are they in this for the long haul and for ALL the money?

    I don't think those lawyers have the word "some" in their vocabulary. Not when "ALL" is a perfectly good concept.

    Is this the beginning of "HOUSEHOLD GOODS" being locked into a warehouse? Along with PC MILER?
    Destroy the cities...
    and they will rebuild them.
    Destroy the farms...
    and grass will grow in the streets of the cities.

    Destroy the economy of the blue-collar worker...
    and grass will grow in the executive offices.

    The bill has come due.
    ( R E T I R E D , and glad of it)
