Great equipment on the field. Hardly ever icing in the winters. Seems like a powerful asset to have from a recruiting and operational standpoint.

Yeah, way to rationalize another outstation base.

The good news is that it doesn't matter what you or I think. Sorry if I offended you.

I'm not offended. I just don't understand why anyone would want another outstation to detract from schedules more than our current bases do.

Unfortunately our leadership feels the same way you do. I wish I could find BBs letter which is where this whole 'rumor' came from. I'm not sure is so much of a rumor as an unofficial announcement.

Yeah I get that. What was the letter referencing exactly. Just more outstation bases, or specifically jax?

A couple hundred a month plus the negotiations assessment and several other mystery fees. In exchange you do receive a *****in quarterly trucker magazine and you also become a defacto donor to the Democratic Party.
