    We are not NYC compliant but that doesn't seem to bother anyone.

    What are you going to do ?

    I plan to boycott CA and any products that come from that state. I hope anyone who can and does go into CA sticks it to them on rates.

    Since we are building a house inside the barn I go to Home Depot quite often. HD and Lowes have 10% off for disabled vets. Once the house is done I am building a wood shop. Shayne actually likes tools. She has her own tools and tool room. Tools are one of our biggest assets. Having spent 27...

    Miles

    Shayne normally drives more miles than I do. I am normally awake more hours than she is. We switch drivers around 1 or 2 and I drive the 0200 to 1400 shift. We each take turns driving the short runs. We are both on the road for the same amount of time and the money goes in one bank account...

    Where do you park?

    We park at home on our 7 acres. Since we live in a barn, way in the country, on our own private road, no one bothers us. It took 3 years for FedEx and UPS to find us. 4 years to get a mailbox. Very secluded and quiet. Sent from my EVO using EO Forums mobile app

    Dallas, TX

    If you are going to Denton, TX there is a T/A right near there. There is also a Pilot about 30 miles towards Fort Worth. Much safer and cleaner than the J in Dallas.

    There should be plenty of prostitutes, panhandlers and drug dealers to entertain you.

    Changes at FedEx Custom Critical

    I get the feeling that this is just a way for the company to try and put a stop to the cherry picking and contractors that attempt to wait until they are the last truck in an area and then demand a ridiculously high rate. Sitting in a busy express center, declining loads until everyone else is...

    Changes at FedEx Custom Critical

    In Phil's scenario he said, "In the last year, the other truck had more service failures than you." I believe that "service failure" is a factor in determining what truck gets the load, but I don't know if it is more important than acceptance rate. But Phil is correct. Professionalism and safe...

    Maybe someone on the drivers council could find out why we don't have access to it?

    Load Acceptance Rates Included in Ranking

    I believe if they are going to use acceptance rates as part of the criteria they should have to offer loads at a decent rate the first time the load is offered. And you should only be dinged with a decline if you were the first choice by the DVA system. Example: I am choice number 4 because I am...

    Changes at FedEx Custom Critical

    We do not plan on changing anything about the way we determine if we accept a load due to this change. It is either a profitable run or it is not. We hope our 100% on time pick up and delivery, 0 CSA score, driver and truck qualifications and our professionalism will be enough to keep our truck...

    Phil: Correct. Just as you would be terminated for violating the sitting duck rule or having an at fault accident during your first year. Every company has its own rules. xiggi: I think so.
