They are getting a good guy. He's one of the few recruiters I trust to tell the truth. Can't believe FedEx let him go!

Best wishes to him.

Dale, Claude was my recruiter at FedEx Custom Critical and I feel the same way. He is one of the best and has a heart of gold.

Claude is a stand up guy. I don't know any of the circumstances but on the surface it sounds like a win lose deal, a win for Panther and a loss for Fedex. Hopefully they will send him to MATS and the Expo so there will be a chance to see him and say hi.

I thought he had purple blood.
Good luck and best wishes to a great guy. He wasn't my recruiter but he may be the reason I'm still at Fedex.

Well, I thought I had purple in my blood too, but move to Panther in 2008. I think I still have some but not as much. I'm glad Claude is part of the Panther team now and it will be nice to see Claude in Black and Gold.

Congrats go out to Claude Lawson and Panther!! Claude was our recruiter at Fedex and is a great man to work with. Panther has hired a great man. I am like bruno it will be great to see claude in black and gold. Fedex has lost but Panther has gained. Good luck Claude!!!! Maybe Claude can be our recuriter over here at Panther..since our recuriter left.

Certainly a great guy. I won't be too hard on him.

Since Claude moved over to Panther it will be like old times. I asked Panther if he could be our recruiter as he was our recruiter at FedEx Custom Critical. FedEx LOST one hell of a recruiter and nice guy to boot. Claude is old school and doesn't feed you a line of hog wash. Claude just tells it like it is, good or bad. You have to respect a man for being honest and up front. Maybe if the world had more people like Claude Lawson, things wouldn't be so bad. Welcome to Panther Expedited Services Claude.

I went to Panther and seen Claude as he was still doing all of his Panther training. Yea, he has to sit threw all the class's the new drivers do when they come on with Panther too. We talked with Jeff Garra about the old days of Roberts Express and man was looking for DaveKc, Dreamer and Lawrence to show up.
