I thought this was an interesting list and I wondered how many of you have used some of these teas and what was the result?

I think Turtle said it perfect!

Jim I wish you the best of luck with Load One even though you do not need the "luck" part you will do very well. Personal attacks might be why some have quit saying how they are doing at FXCC or innuendoes that there is special consideration. We have not run flat rate so I cannot speak on...

Interesting ready and study by FMCSA Debunking the Myths on Hours-of-Service | Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration

I tried this and found that FedEx Custom Critical has not opted in so I cannot see anything. Darn

For those of you that enjoy NASCAR races here is a chance to see them free or at least attend a fun tailgating party... Freightliner Run Smart Pit Stop | Freightlinerpitstop.com Oct. 31 - Nov 2nd 2014 Texas Motor Speedway See you there!

I believe this that there is NO driver shortage there is a shortage of driver pay and finally I think the companies are going to have to wake up - they either need to take a smaller cut of what they charge customers are the rate needs to go up. Here is a good article New York Times

Hard to believe it is all ready time for slush busters! Cannot do winter without them.

Since this is worrying you here you go:

Just read a really nice article about these two! Those of you that attend the Expedite Expo I am sure know them as they have been attending for several years. I really enjoyed the article in September 2014's issue but could not find it online to share. Keep an eye out for a copy of this...

Waiting 27 minutes on hold would be very frustrating I agree. I also imagine they were busy I hope taking load orders to keep everyone busy. It seems like it is really a interesting balance to keep enough people trained to take orders and answer questions from drivers and not be paying to many...

CONGRATULATIONS!!! Fantastic job.

Jeff had the best sense of humor and he was fun to talk with. I also remember my last talk with Jeff when he said he had had enough and was done with staying alive by artificial means. He knew it was going to be quick and he had little time left. His power to write about the Expedite...

It seems funny that you would think that... We do not lead a charmed life and we get our fair share of bad loads, bad roads, bad customers, bad weather, and bad days. The key is how do you handle bad situations that are beyond your control.

In our years of Expediting we have had a couple of these at least but as soon as they are over we forget them. The most recent was this year with a load going a little over 500 miles that took over 30 hours to deliver. First we had snow that slowed us down Second was the ice in Arkansas and...
