Your success depends on you, others can help you along and lend support, but it’s you who will ultimately decide your own fate.

Try to look at this entire EO experience as an adventure—because that’s exactly what it is.

Just focus on the expediting and enjoy it as much as possible, knowing that the end result will be well worth your while. And remember that what you put into it directly affects what you get out of it.....be safe my friend....:)

You & I trade paint pretty equally so I'm not really complaining about you... and I've never said the Promaster front is more than just tolerable... from the driver's seat only because I can't see it from there!!!

But they are working very well for us and really, even if they weren't, is it necessary for a few to just dump all over every chance they get???

I think these forums could really use more respect...

I know he has been through a terrible lot but he did tell me that it was the Haters that convinced him to go away. He has a ton of experience too but was always getting potshots and got sick of it.

Well I look at it this way.... We all have way more things in our life to get stressed over. What we all do for a living in stressful enough. Add to that the things you guys face like weather, bad drivers, mechanical issues and the list goes on. Life is far to short to make this place hostile. It should be a place we can all laugh, communicate, exchange ideas, respectfully debate, and pretty much enjoy some camaraderie. None of EO is worth taking too to heart. In the scope of life, this place is pretty small. IMHO of course.

I just had a dispatcher call me and ask me if I would be interested in a load going to Mexico. I paused for a second and I said "you mean New Mexico" they said, "no it's Mexico" I said "um, we don't go to Mexico" and our dispatcher said "we don't?"..........wow!
