    Kamlim, most of the folks that participate here don't/havn't figgured rates. They wait for the infamous electronic beep, or, a phone call. Of the most, the vast majority of the most, have either had direct conversations, or overheard a veteran say, "I absolutely won't run for less than $XXXX...

    Let's add another tier to the cake of disrespect

    Yazzir, it's living large. Had to move a bit Nord to Cocoa Beach, wuz gett'in a little warm in the Keys for my taste. Back to the subject, when the digs get sooo unbearble, I figgure it must be time to spring and indulge myself. So it costs sixty-seventy bucks? So what, if you are that...

    Unfrickinbelivable

    I'd say we'all don't matter, an I don't care. If you like what you see in the mirror, you should be happy as a plum. BTW did you catch the part about the green roads? Jim, yes those type things are available, but, after waiting a day or so (phew) there isn't much energy left to mess...

    "I had to pay Florida tolls in excess of $25." "Had to"??????? Maybe you should take a couple steps back and tink about that. Mabee even check a road atlas out an see if there are any roads going that way that aren't green colored. Could have helped your delima. And, YES...

    Where is Moot when you need him??? Here we have the truck stop dwellers complaining about their digs. It's funny enough, but, he could make it a more enjoyable read.

    Info For A Tri-state Company!!!!!!!!

    Me tink y'all are beating a dead horse here. Seems one that has been running 10 plus years at a grand a day, should be ready for relocation to easy street, steada having some kinda disaster, having to wait 15-30 days for revenue to show up. Kinda interesting?

    Kamlin, you price it just as tho you were making a widget. Cost plus some profit, then figgure in some volumn, and you should have it. If I may inquire, what in the world are you doing in a business you don't have a clue about?? Seems a good way to get a large lesson about life. You'll...

    What are the best areas for freight?

    OMG, must be my lack of experience in recognizing what really happens in this business. I guess I should have researched what it is really called. In generalizing, rather than a go - no go, whatcha tink it may be called. Grey matter cache?

    What are the best areas for freight?

    Yes and, if ANY of you tink for a New York second, you are not on a go - no go screen of somekind, YOU are sadly mistaken. Soooo, if one of your "bad hair days" spilled over to a discussion with a dispatcher, you can rest assured it HAS been duly noted. Also, IF you have been a "good"...

    This takes the cake!

    This REALLY does take the cake. Within a couple days of the original post there were many replies. The vast majority were quick to want to "hang" the big bad dispatcher or company. However, a couple days after a question about helping yer fella driver, one has stepped up to the plate...

    This takes the cake!

    I'd have to agree that switching the load out would be the way to go. Then however, you'd still have an ill driver problem. I'm sure you wouldn't want him/her driving home ill after being relieved from the load. So, what would you do?? So now you've decided to switch the load out, the...

    Constant Sitting.

    OMG, constant sitting? Seems to me when "its too cold to go there", or, (sniff) I can't find a parking place (for a cargo van) to be on a viable board, then maybe sitting is something you may wanna get used to. Betcha I can ride a mile (or less) with you, in a safe area of Atlanta, and...

    Great Shop for a Rig Master

    Hey Broom, some folks love to wrench, and hate the admin, and some folks can't wrench to save themselves, and love to admin. Can you understand that catchy phrase "cooperate and graduate"? Or, no?
