DRIVER MANAGER AT CONTINENTAL EXPRESS WINS 55’ TELEVISION

Little Rock, Ark. (February 16, 2006) -- By keeping the 50+ drivers in her fleet happy, Continental Express Inc. (CEI) Driver Manager Traci Hasson got something to smile about for herself. Hasson was the winner of CEI’s driver retention contest for managers that ran during fourth quarter 2005.
The contest stipulated that any driver who left, including terminations, counted as a loss to the manager’s board. Losing just five drivers, Hasson was awarded a 55 inch Philips high-definition projection television.
“I was very excited to win the contest,” says Hasson, who joined CEI last summer. “It’s very important to me to do what I can to help the drivers. You have to listen, have to take the time to care about what they’re going through. If the wheels aren’t turning, then nobody’s earning.”
Continental Express credits Hasson for her enthusiasm, dedication and respect for her fleet of drivers. According to Hasson, most drivers just want support. “They’re working hard, they’re tired, they’re missing home – they want to know someone cares about them. Continental Express takes that very seriously. Retention is extremely important to us. I love being a driver manager because I like troubleshooting and helping people solve problems. I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else because I love the transportation industry and I love Continental.”
Continental Express was founded two decades ago as a small truckload carrier with only 25 trucks. Today, the company is a premier coast-to-coast truckload, truck/rail, and logistics transportation company with over 500 trucks and more than 1,200 dry van trailers. Headquartered in Little Rock, Ark., Continental Express has a network of secure regional drop facilities that sweep the nation from California to Georgia.
