1315. Mass Layoffs = Profit Boom? And Why California Is Losing DOT Money!

In this episode, hear what's really happening across freight, capacity, and the broader logistics landscape, and find out if automation and AI are reshaping jobs faster!

I also discuss Amazon and UPS cutting tens of thousands of jobs and the involvement of automation and AI on this matter, the federal pressure on California's CDL standards, and, with cybersecurity threats rising, I share why every freight company needs to vet tech vendors like their business depends on it. Through it all, the message stays the same: build your pipeline, serve your customers, and stay focused on long-term growth.
