I don't mean to be critical, but I have always taken pride in my work
and I get a lil irritated, and protective of my company as I believe you do also. (I don't recall you ever saying anything negative about panther?) So you, like me are proud of you're working relationship
=====================================================================
That is true. Not every company is for everyone. If it was, everyone would be there.
As far as negatives with Panther, they have some which in the past I have posted about. The most common is QC charges, a few of the inexperienced dispatchers, and the difficulty of getting ahold of key people at times. So no, they aren't perfect either. There is going to be some fault within any company, but I think they are the best pick for my personal situation.
My position with Fedex is not the company. Many think I am bashing them when I voice my opinions with regards to reefers, liftgates ect. Those are the posts that I am the most critical because of the large investments. It would be a diservice to new folks entering the business and not see "the other side" My thoughts would be the same if Panther or another company entered that side of the business and compensated in a simular fashion. Since there has been numerous posts over the last months on this, I could see how you might think that I am picking on them.
Again, my opinion would be the same with Panther if they started offering discount loads, or loads without a fuel surcharge. I would likely be the first to write or comment about it.
My intent is only to educate the inexperienced, not offend.
I hope that gives a different prospective.
