Allowing Mexico trucks to come over the border is a safty issue since they are so lax on the quality of the vehicles on Mexico's highways. I don't care how angry they get, until they have the same safety regulations that we have to abide by (including hours of service and logging) they have no...

Angry Face! GRRRRR! Obumma! Roar!

I've been averaging about seventeen cents which isn't bad considering how low diesel has come down.

You, me, and others have told him to do this repeatedly. I don't think he understands English. Whitewolfwhiner, For the Nth time: TS will ALWAYS let you see the customers bill, genius.

I've been with Tri-State for three years and have found it to be a very fair and personable company. I have had no complaints until recently when my cc decided to hit the trail. Luckily the other guys they have there, as well as most of dispatch is decent to work with. They can have their...

I'm thankful and EXTREMELY happy the mods locked whitewolfe's upteenth anti Tri-State thread. You guys rock and keep this the best forum on the internets.

The owner of my truck tried to get me a backhaul through Nations and my carrier stated that they will not accept Nations loads because they do not pay.

Honestly, why do you stay if you hate the company so much? ETA: Carol, Mic and Don have always been great to me. I might now always like the answer they give me, but I know it's the honest answer.

That guy holding the gun to your head that's making you stay in this business? Do you want one of us to take him out? You have a problem with a company drug testing? Find me one that doesn't these days. And thank goodness, otherwise we'd have a dangerous situation on the roads. The fee I...

You've provided us with entertainment, Dougster. So, thanks.

Remember this, Guido. What the customer is paying isn't always what the carrier is getting paid. You have to take into account 3rd parties who take their share. Yesterday I took a load to Indianapolis, IN and was paid 183.00 and 15.00 fuel surcharge. I talked to a dispatcher and they showed me...

I don't know how I feel about this. Tri State had a customer that was providing freight for their drivers. You come along and because you had a previous relationship with this customer that gives you first pick for their freight? Ahead of somebody that may have been sitting there for days? Of...

You know what? There's a whole department for these questions. Call Don Sling.

Try not to be so bitter, man. I work for TS and although I haven't been running well, I can tell you that I have complete confidence that if my coordinator or dispatchers had any say over the situation they would keep all of us loaded. I was talking to dispatch over the weekend and they have...

Good luck with moderatin' us ornery cusses, Ms. Mindi!
