Has anyone else had load offers without a weight and rate? I was offered a load like this and sent a message (via QC) telling them I need a weight (a GM load, I know the rates by weight) OR an amount of money paid to truck before I would accept or reject the load. I was sent the GM rates. I...

One question "Vanish". Which uniformed, one color truck out fit did you get kicked out of for your "I'm the greatest" way of thinking? P.S. I'm glad he's one of a kind! Couldn't stand to see a bunch of expediters like him! Best to ALL (you too vanish) and be SAFE!!:D

RE: Is Expediting vans becoming becoming extinct? NO, vans are not becomming extinct! When freight goes up again and it has to (just don't know when). The big trucks will get there freight, the stright trucks will get theres and we van drivers will get ours. With freight down the big trucks...

YOU GO GUMP!!! If Vanish (or is it varnish) has trouble with your (or any of our) postings then he should by-pass reading most of the postings on EO. It sounds as if he's the rookie here, not us and as others have said we can post most anything we want. Good, bad, funny or not. ALL of us that...

In my last posting ("Band Together???!!!???") I stated what was on my mind, as we should. I want to thank everyone that had a response, your comments were / are super because you stated your feelings, thanks again. I think the idea of starting our own "O/O owned" business would be wonderful...

I will be on my way to WI to deliver. If anything about this comes up I hope someone will take good notes and forward them to me! Thanks, Action P.S. ACE, I sent you an email, I guess you didn't get it yet. It would have been super to connect today...

ACE, thanks for your comments, I am sure the OOIDA is a super group. I have been told, by many drivers/O/O's that there is almost no power in this group and that it's main goal is the "big truck", common carrier O/O. As most will agree we in the expediter NEED our own group to aid us and help...

I think NOW is the time for ALL expediters to band together. We have no input to anything, we take what is offered or go without, We spend extra money out of our pockets to move there freight. We spend hours and or days sitting for a load. And we almost have to take what is offered because each...

You would be lucky to get a company to respond to you, and if you did I would think hard about the answer you get. There in business to make money just like we are. The pecking order is profit first to them, then the shipper, then some where way down on the list is the O/O/drivers. If we can't...

RE: Censored?? Why?? Why should I be censored?? I have not said anything that's UN-true, I have not named any company so what's wrong with telling it like it is? I just hope anyone thinking about getting into this busness spends a LOT of time researching what company to sign on with prior to...

It's real bad when a company lets you sit (could be for days)and wait for a load. And you can see there still adding more trucks, with the same story we were told. When rules are stated and the co. and O/O/driver agree to the rules (contract) why do the O/O/drivers have to keep there side and...

I use the DeLorme program every time I move my van. When I go anywhere to pick up or deliver a load or even if I am bonused / deadhead. I use it on my laptop along with it's receiver which lets me know where I am sitting or driving. You can set it up with sound too if you want and it will "talk"...

Well it looks as if you have made a good selection on your cell phone. But, there are no replys about pagers, so I guess I will be the first. I use the "weblink wireless" pager. I have found it to be the BEST investment in communicatios I have made. Some of the features are: works in places...
