Massive trucker Roadrunner is eliminating 450 jobs, and it shows that the trucking 'bloodbath' hasn't slowed down.

The trucking industry has seen a downturn in 2019 — with thousands of job losses and hundreds of bankruptcies. Truck drivers including Kentucky-based Chad Boblett have called the conditions a"bloodbath." Freight volumes ticked up this summer, possibly indicating that the worst is over.
