There is a guy posting at Truckers Report saying everyone at Keasbey got fired over Thanksgiving. Claims the TM was requiring drivers to pay cash to get good loads. He went on to claim management knew about it and racism kept the TM from getting fired and that's why they "had" to go Union. Crazy **** if true.

Sounds like a disgruntled driver to me. Probably get a drivers room/gate code change next week on the QC.

won't nothing happen to the tm, superior would rather get rid of the drivers that knew about it. and just hire new ones with no idea of what happen. and carry on with buisness as usual.:thumbsdown:

Still open as of Friday. The terminal manager was canned a while ago. Rumors u hear on TM are consistent with what i have heard.

this question is for the other superior drivers, do i need to call log ops when ever they try to send me home empty, because here lately it's been all out and back. i wouldn't mind a couple weeks before seeing my home terminal. :thumbsup:

My home terminal dispatcher has me call him whenever I get the empty go home dispatch from a different terminal on a system load. Sometimes the other terminals try to sneak you home so one of there drivers gets the load. They have changed it a couple of times for me. Most of our dedicated stuff is out and back anyway. This happens a lot when freight is slow. You could be sitting in a truck stop for 2 days waiting on a load but then they would pay you layover. Most truck drivers would sit without pay. At least when we sit its at home

I drive out of Morrow and saw that truck last week - quite a mess. I asked my TM how the driver was and was told that he was already out of the hospital and back home. I didn't have the time to gather more details at that time.

I gave the truck a close inspection as a reminder to me of how badly things can go out there.
