Didn’t care about employees? What about shippers?

The employees should sell the freight for gas money home and park the trucks in their front yards with for sale signs on them.

Seems that the trucks can be taken to dealerships and the dealer will provide a bus ticket home. Unfortunately you have to be near a dealership to do that.

Another problem is drivers with a dog, busses won’t take them. Fortunately it sounds like owner operators are stepping up and offering rides in the right direction.

What about shippers?

When I was in the fish biz, we once shipped around $32,000 worth of Australian lobster tails to a warehouse in Chicago; the driver apparently had a pissy fit and quit once he got to town......trailer went missing.

The truck broker finally tracked the driver down who told him where he could collect said trailer. It'd been abandoned someplace in town, and was empty.

We got paid, but no idea what might have happened to the former driver.
