Dear Expediting Family,
I applaud each of you for the work that you do. You are true partners and friends and I am thankful to be associated with everyone in and out of a truck that posts to these threads. I also want to thank EO for allowing this vehicle to share ideas, suggestions and comments. I, like all in the industry, watch and appreciate the positive things you say about Panther, laugh at the comical things and get frustrated at the things I feel are mis-representations or mis-interpretations.
One thing about Panther, is that we are a proud group of people. We love what we do and truly feel we are making a difference in the world. This goes for the staff in Seville or the ladies and gentlemen on the road who, not only provide their skills and expertise in the driving arena, but also excel in customer service, maintenance, safety and sales. They are the true representation of Panther and we would be nothing without them.
Unfortunately, as positive a trait as pride is, sometimes misguided pride can damage relationships instead of building them. I know that there have been some posts recently with people who are associated with Panther in Seville. I want to be clear that the Panther management team does not promote or endorse the comments, actions or suggestions of these people. I want to apologize for any inconvenience, any promotion of Panther being anything other than a professional organization or any suggestion that we do not value our owner or driver partners.
I applaud the people posting for their commitment to Panther but have asked them to suffer in silence on a go forward basis. The EO forum is a great venue to share both the good and bad. I applaud and thank all of our Partner drivers who continue to ensure the true message is sent in these forums. Thank you, please be safe for you and your family.
