  • "I have worked at ABF Freight for over 34 years and am currently the senior manager of shipment research validation at our ABF service center in Carlisle, PA. My favorite memories are the relationships I've built and how warmly I was welcomed into the ABF family. I started at ABF in 1990 and left in 1999, but I quickly realized it was a mistake. One of the best compliments I received was ABF's willingness to welcome me back. In February 2025, I will celebrate 45 years in trucking and my fourth consecutive ArcBest CEO Circle of Excellence Award. In my free time, I love being with my wife, Lynn, of 47 years, and our family. When we're not with our two children and six grandchildren, we love to take vacations. We're also avid Buffalo Bills fans and never miss a game! Many think about leaving the grind at this stage, but I see my ABF career as a rewarding challenge. With an incredible team, it's easy to keep on truckin'!" — Marty Netzel

  • “My favorite memory with ABF Freight is when I competed in the 2023 Nebraska Trucking Competition and won third place in the Twin-Trailers division. I have been a road driver for almost four years with ABF, working out of our Omaha, NE service center. My favorite part of this job is being able to meet and discuss work with other drivers and learn better ways to perform my job. I went through the TMAP program in Fort Carson, CO and I truly think that it prepared me for the vigorous requirements of the job. I would definitely recommend attending an ABF-led training course, due to having actual ABF drivers training you and preparing you to perform the job. A personal milestone I am currently celebrating is making it over 400,000 miles in under three years. One of my favorite things about working at this company is the friendly and helpful people I work with daily. Some of my hobbies outside of work include spending time with my kids or working on a book that I am writing.” — David Podelco
