    red, who do you run for now? i just managed to finally wiggle my way into an LTL job in buffalo, where i moved after mts shut down. i just looked at the old terminal on davison rd, there is nothing there except a bunch of trailers that look like they are oos from other companies. just drove through the other weekend while visiting my parents.

    so ALL of those guys are gone? i talked to a guy at delphi that told me that they moved them over to LSI and never saw him again about a year and a half ago, so they are ALL nonunion now?

    at this point, running linehaul LTL, i no longer miss MTS, although it was good money for what it was.

    Mike Eddy is still working for them but I am not sure where. Larry was running for some public office when I worked there back in 05. Not sure what he is up to now nor do I care.

    man that sucks, i dont blame you for wanting to snap on larry, guy was a prick. Mark williams had a triple bypass huh? i was wondering what he did after the layoff, Im suprised that the local didn't get him a job somewhere else, considering the #### he had to put up with at Martin. hell, they are probably the reason for his heart problems....

    I just had an interview with the terminal manager in Tampa on Friday. He asked me if I knew how to fill out log books because they still use them so something doesn't add up in this post.

    I read the first posts from 2008 and I'm wondering if things have changed there? I have only heard bad things about Martin here on this forum and then only from a few people. I'm wondering if it may be that they're just pissed or something.

    Anyway, current information from current drivers would be nice. Anyone?

    I was the MTS driver of the month in June 07. A few months later, I decided that I would rather be unemployed than work another day there. Dispatch drove me nuts.
