It seems that no companies are hiring much. The insurance companies seem to be controlling or manipulating who can be considered qualified or unqualified. I have seen the hiring criteria change alot depending on the economy and the fluctuation of the need for drivers. The hiring areas have changed alot to as it looks like they are chasing the freight. Idle restrictions are different in nearly every state.

Brokers are still ripping of the truckers. We need more shipper direct freight. The manipulation in the trucking business reminds me of the mob controlled the gambling and the whiskey in the 1920's.
