I don't feel sorry for them. Everybody knew this was comming months and months ago. MOST of them could have had another job a long time ago and wouldn't have had to be worrying about it at christmas time. the writing was on the wall ( in huge letters ) for a long time now......
I never listen to hear say. Truck Drivers are some of the biggest BSers i know. So i never listen to what they say about company's.

That's a great idea. I've heard that MANY drivers are stuck out on the road trying to get home....
I'll keep back a couple hundred...just in case... for a bus ticket and a couple meals for one of those drivers if I happen to see them... Hope someone else does the same...it certainly COULD be one of us.

All companies make a mistake on checks once in a while. I had one this week where the trip was not entered correctly in the computer and I was shorted 70 miles. Told my boss about it and he fixed it on the spot. This is far different from not getting a check altogether. If i did not get a check or the check bounced it would only happen once.

Few questions, if the fuel cards are cut off then how do they expect these guys to deliver the trucks? What about any load they currently have, what happens with it? Or they wake up on a toll road and their pre-pass is cutoff and they don't have enough pocket money to cover the toll? What a mess for the drivers, I will not be surprised to see a bunch of abandoned Arrow trucks left sitting either out of fuel and loaded with cargo or just left at a T/S or rest area

That puts more truckers out of work, really sux and also give companies more leverage to keep payrates down.
