Ya gotta understand tho......you are typing to an "elite" expediting crowd here whom really, truly believe their services are golden. Even if the fleet owner were paying ALL expenses the would still DEMAND 40% of gross, and a motel room once a week....prolly. Problem is, most just don't...

That is a very good post that places the facts directly on the plates of the "roast goose hunters", problem is, the want the goose roasted, but........they don't like goose. What'ca gonna do with em. What you need there shelled one,.......is start an Expediting Company and sign on about 20...

Ya gotta admit tho.......No, slows life down a bit.

Ohhh twe, me tink, each day you have in this business will seem like a life time to you with this attitude. And, even more so for your spouse it seems. If you tink for even a little bit YOU don't have to service your customer (and if you are a Contractor you have only one), y'all are truly...

That, prolly, is the way sad description for a persons future that I have ever heard of. Fort Wayne, eh. FOREVER????

Interestingly, had some drivers that had 30 foot of money making space, and 110" of comfort space, (to the windshield curtains......OK Leo?), that still couldn't git r done...right Hawk? Just all the expectations of the many different needs and wants. Tis an imperfect world ya know. Funny...

As a Contractor, working for a Contractor, working for Fedup, what is your spin on YOUR future?? Jes curious. You seem to be a Fat Cat (by your typing), but, in fact, how may calls have you made? I'm jes trying to be a "good" part of the EO community and "share" info and questions......as...

Prolly am I spose.

John, one day many will get past the "screwing the pooch", no logging, no expense, no nuthin, gravitational pull of using a "toy truck" to get over on the system, and get a "real" truck so you can have a pool of candidates to toss or keep. I tho wonder when that might be.......seems each day a...

Believe me, you will continue to be amazed (if not awed) daily in this business. Especially, if you take everything you pick at a truck stop as something to put in your tapes. I'm convinced from reading your posts that YOU, do in fact, NOT UNDERSTAND all you know about this business. There is...

My time sensitive loads have ranged from bout 3 ounces to 31,000 lbs. I drove a quad axle 30 foot straight truck. Time critical freight frequently lands on the spot freight market, as a result of a Broker sticking his neck out and taking a chance to hit the proverbial "Home Run" or, has his...

Yah. Has little to do with WHO asks a question, in fact it is THE question. AND, your obvious lack of knowledge of the players in YOUR industry. Appears to me, you are spending waayyy to much time at the truck stops and not nearly enough time doing something else. This continues to be an...

Actually, the name we are familiar with is in fact Tri State. tristates is prolly a different animal altogether. Suggest you check your reading comprehension skills a bit when reading the Company name on the truck. Then......ya won't hafta type BS.

However, ANYONE that accepts a load, arrives at the shipper, discovers the freight will fit, AND, there will be a tape seal applied to the box, and refuses the load because of [possible] tape residue..........needs to be thrown under the bus, ricky tic!!!! But, i'll run that cheap freight.

The new machines are so much fun these days. Maybe, jes go git the old one till they fix that one.

The onlypick I have with ya Moot is.............. exclusive use. So what???? I always offered (and delivered) non-stop, dock to dock, on demand 24/7, with air , if needed. So what is the problem here. Exclusive use???? WTF???? As long as the customers (all) are taken care of????? All...

Try a Puter ther Leo. You can adjust the font to 200%.

EOU, yep that is a good one. FEDEX lost it's luster for me in bout 2000. I lingered, like ATeam for a bit like they did, hoping for a glimmer of some kind of fair play. Alas, I had to give em up for reasons that defy explanation as to their foolishness regarding contractors. I went my...

Ya well, you folks do it that way in this business and, let us know how it turns out.

I like about all I read from you about how you manage your load acceptance and other things, cept.........the delaying YOUR future. Ain't the boy ready to have the cord cut????
