    Another "crazy" expeditor

    Not sure how we got to this list of questions from my simple statement but ok. Never had a desire to take two months off but had friends take that much and longer with no issues. Had qc at a couple don't currently. I kinda liked it. When I did my cost for a qc and insurance through the company...

    Another "crazy" expeditor

    I've never felt chained by leasing to a single carrier. I've always felt free to come and go as I wish. I've experienced several of them.

    The Trump Card...

    I would say public schools are pretty greedy. Where is their accountability when the graduation rate is horrible? From what I have seen most private schools have a lower cost per student than do public schools. Vouchers do come out of taxes so I'm not sure why if a public school can't provide a...

    You always have to wonder why public schools are so afraid of competition.

    No not always, you can take a dot physical with a normal operators license without getting a dot card.

    That's not correct, I worked at load1 for five years and have a bunch of friends there including John. In a van you must pass the physical when you first sign on not after that unless dot requires it for your license. The company I currently work for does not require one and there is nothing...

    See case in point. No sprinters should not haul lbs 4000 lbs and it will cause extra repairs to do it repeatedly. You want to point out others posting incorrect information but you are doing so. Just because you can put 4000 lbs on a vehicle and it moves down the road doesn't mean it's the...

    Ok let me say this nicely. You keep talking about people not saying things that they don't know for sure. Well make sure you follow those rules also. Not all companies make you have a medical card.and there are plenty of companies that allow you to set the weight you choose to carry. Everyone...

    I think that's called human nature. I have the opinion taking every load offered isn't the best way to go. You posted saying people should take every load offered. We both have opinions we both posted them, that's life.

    I own a 2500 sprinter and hauling 3000 lbs starting bare bones puts it over its gross weight limit and will lead to more repairs. A 3500 sprinter is over 1001 therefor should log. Now if a person wants to say sprinter type vehicle there is some waiver room but ovm was not referring to that.

    Actually you can be somewhat picky. Knowing when to say no within reason and understanding what you can safely haul is just part of the business. You want to except everything and haul more weight that's great. Someone else doesn't prefer too that's great to its their Van. Actually the pickier...

    He was obviously referring to sprinters in his statement about not being able to haul 3000 lbs. I think he is fully aware that transits and Promasters can haul more. Personally I would never put 3500 lbs on any Van let alone 4000.

    The Trump Card...

    I agree with the idea it wasn't planned well. Sadly that's our government. This one, ocare, the list of badly executed ideas goes on and on. What does bug me is it keeps getting referred to as a ban when it's really more of a temporary suspension. But thing that description doesn't work as well...
