Just curious.....if you're happy where you are then I am assuming Gainey is meeting all your needs. If all your needs are being met, then why change?

There was a story earlier in the year that Gainey was in financial trouble. He may want to go to a more secure company.

I doubt he's doing well at GTS ... I think there might be a few drivers that have years in at GTS that are on a couple of the rare dedicated jobs making ok money ,but most GTS drivers don't get any miles ,and cpm is low low low ...no apu...no freight...beat up equipment...don't pay for idleaire...only pay 50% DH miles 1st trip off home time...bitch about idletime weekly....hold pay from trips for 13days after empty ,which often takes 21 days to get paid with this b/c if the 13th day is after payroll cut-off you don't paid until next week ...I would easily say you could blindly jump to Marten, and be ahead .
