    While it hasn’t been officially announced yet, QC bought all the equipement (trucks & trailers) from Olin. Starting July 31st, KA Steel will be no longer. I’ve heard QC is asking the drivers to stay on, but at least here in Chicago, no one has agreed since QC wants nothing to do with the union.

    My nephew told me about this buyout a couple days ago. Looks like the rich are getting richer

    I think Ace Hardware got rid of their trucking too. I have an Ace nearby, and always saw "Ace" tractors. Now I see, "Happy Go Lucky Trucking"( now hiring, in magic marker) tractor pulling an Ace van trailer. It's the end of the world as we know it.

    Well on the upside. QC feeling secure enough to grow is good. I have friend still at Heniff having to play musical loads- will it pushout or cancel or is it good :banghead:
    Too many days sitting and wondering...

    Wishing the very best to all the KAS drivers. Worked with them for many years and a bunch a great people. Treated me good even when I messed up their dispatch (was a CSR then a dispatcher). People are what make the difference. Management is what ruins it. <3
