Ahh, sorry TeamCaffee, I never notice which category I'm posting in, I always go to 'new posts' and they're all just together in there. Don't know how I got in here tho? Kick me out! Didn't realize it was specific to FECC...

Well, since your lovely wife has to put up with SO much yapping from you, and since they've come down a lot, and since they really ARE far superior for the stuff she is interested in doing.. I think you should buy her a beautiful white Mac laptop to keep her happy on the road :) (Inkasnana...

Better to be anal than broke and running in circles.

Someone I was talking to the other day who has a Mac that I was coveting, told me the price and I was shocked at how much they have actually come down.. They're in the affordable range now.. and that's for a good one too! :)

It's Saturday morning.. speculation is fun :) For me as a person carrying a load.. I'm going to care about the getting paid (or not) part.. If I were a shipper, I'd be caring about the authority being revoked part, as well as the not paying their carriers part (since the carrier could...

Ha, your wife must be right! You've only been here 2 mos and you're already at a third of a thousand posts!!

That is so true. One can boast until nobody will listen any more, about getting $5/mile, but if they only got 300 miles for the month, it isn't looking so hot. And no one is to say those 300 miles didn't come with 150 deadhead miles attached. At least if you're running piles of miles, you can...

Five hundred more jobs bite the dust: The Canadian Press: Montreal Pratt & Whitney facility heavily hit by layoffs

Sarcasm always makes a great impression from a newcomer seeking feedback who doesn't get what was wanted to be heard. Reminds me of a teen who doesn't get her/his way.

Maybe gjmcclain is onto something.. I checked out a couple of carriers that I know for a fact have changed their insurance companies, and neither of them had any revocations at all, let alone involuntary. Still maybe just a procedural matter, but still. I wouldn't think something as simple...

Hope you don't mind LDB if I break into your thread to ask a question.... but I would be really interested to hear from the van/sprinters that CAN carry 3 skids (along with a sleeper space), how often, like what percentage of the total loads, you are carrying 3 skids vs 2. (ie is it often enough...

Thanks MG, does it also get rid of the crap you install yourself over time, that you wish you hadn't? If I install this and it ends up installing MORE crap instead of getting rid of crap... I'm coming after you! (Big threat here!) PS Hey look! This was my 1000th post! Man I talk alot!

That was Doug, not Greg. The human mind is a funny thing. It gets what it thinks to be a terrific idea. Then it searches for data to back it up as being terrific. If it gets negative feedback, it makes excuses for why it's negative, even to the point of paranoia, and thinking the...

It is inevitable that they will eventually put themselves out of business since at some point, NOBODY will do a load for them. None of the independents I know deal with them any more, and I'm sure the larger carriers don't put up with it either. It all catches up at some point.

I had always thought US carriers who broker out loads, must have a broker's authority? The credit rating/history is not something new. It's been going on for at least severallllllll months, if not much longer.

None of my business, but since you are complaining about not getting your money Yesteryear.. and the holdback and everything.. just wondering if at least part of the reason is because you owed for truck driving training? There was something posted about this company a long time ago.. they are...

What? Even jokes are being deleted now, and with no marker to explain? :confused:

i) They are not an advertiser on EO, which may or may not say something in itself.. you decide ii) They have a location on my side of the river too; I've heard different things from time to time... the following is from a Canadian perspective: -I know one Canuck who went with them, at that...

What constitutes a weapon?

I don't want gun haters #'s, I don't want made up numbers, unlike some others who post here, I was looking for valid, proven information in the way of statistics which aren't slanted one way or another. Thank you for your leads, I did spend quite awhile the other day, but I guess I must have...
