@1gp they have the fuel surcharge
huge fuel prices...not good for anybody.
Wishing there was better news but seems to be getting worse every quarter. At least the speed of circling the drain is in low gear and not a straight immediate drop to the bottom.
Poor volume and extreme fuel prices are not giving much hope. The majority of the fleet
are huge trucks/gas hogs. It would not be surprising if that 27 reverses to 72 closings in one quarter if fuel and oil prices keep raising. Very sad.
use to be reliable work but the ground is shifting. high gas prices are going to make
this much worse.
@bj you can’t move either for giving up a 3% mortgage rate for a 6.25%.
Age old trick. Close the facility and make the worker drive one and a half hours to next center. Worker quits and company pays no unemployment or severance. This ends any left over still employed workers ever willing to give 110% ever again once they see that happen.
