I may be missing something, but it looks like the second join
on shipment_status (the left join) is not adding anything to your
results, except more work. ss is not used for output, nor in the where
clause, so what is its purpose ?
if cs.date has an upper limit, it might be helpful to change the
condition to a BETWEEN
in any case, i would think you might need an index on
shipment(carrier_code_id)
shipment(current_status_id)
shipment_status(id)
