At the moment, Arrow is running ads on craigslist for temp drivers (VERY temp.) to drive their abandoned trucks back to some of their terminals. Weird.

I think I'd need paid in advance and with certified funds.

Yea....that could work, Dave. And rates would likely go up. Just look at the clunkers program. Once the program went into effect dealers raised their prices to full retail+. They made a killing. With government transport leading the way shippers and brokers would be paying higher prices in no time. Workers would be paying back much of their higher wages in higher taxes to pay for the acquisition of their new company. Hey....it could work!!:rofl:

Someone mentioned to me that facebook has something where they are attempting to help Arrow drivers get home or find jobs. I don't know the link, but you could probably do a search and find them if you know any Arrow drivers who might need help.

I found a lot of info on another truckers forum. hundreds of truckers from all over the u.s. posted their route & was willing to give any driver a ride in their direction. I posted my location & offered a ride to anyone nearby. it was a shame so many drivers lost their job without warning, & I bet most will not even see the last paycheck they were supposed to get

I think that is great, heavyhaulerss. I am impressed that there has been such an outpouring of support for these drivers. I don't recall when I have seen such a large number of people who are willing to help fellow drivers who are really in need. :thumbsup:
