The man really does have a gift for the pictures. I vote we have an admin give him posting rights in the Load One forums. Can I get a show of hands?

Good morning from cold Maine. Getting ready to head out with the Wreaths Across America convoy as they head out to Arlington.

As for then other post it is my opinion that it is inappropriate for a public post and I will not dignify it with a response.

Other then that hope everyone has a great Sunday! I will be posting up pictures to the company Facebook page later today so everyone can stay up on the convoy.

Well markets move as any experienced expediter well knows. I read plenty of other carrier forums in here as well talking about the exact same topic. Load One agree with your statement. My expenses didn't go down either. In fact the opposite happens for me.

While yes I would agree that there's a different feel to the weekends now, my YTD numbers are as strong as they have been for the last couple of years. I've had some loads from Russell, Tim and Caryn that have been Big Time Weekend home runs, that have been on par with what we use to get from Jeremy. And I remember sitting many weekend when Jeremy was there wondering where was my " Jeremy big money load " was.

I have to admit as much as my numbers were looking bad this year I am suddenly right on par with last year and might even top it. My only regret is the ton of unproductive time that could have really made it a great year.

I often have drivers tell me how I should change my business too. But until someone takes the risks of any business, they really aren't in the best position to know...

I've made a few suggestions to John as well but I fully respect that it's all his to decide... and we'll all be ok regardless. We are all still very fortunate!

I actually don't know what happened to Jeremy. I liked his results for me too, but I trust management looked at the big picture. Let's move on.

That's just dispatchers heads about to explode after getting off the phone with certain drivers.
