Hey, I'm in KC, and I saw the meltdown that the cardinals had last week against the Chiefs. two weeks in a row, at home, and you lose a 14 point lead? SOMEBODY has to be accountable for that, and I guess Denny decided it wouldn't be him, at least not yet....:7

personally, I would hope we would be moving away from NLM and the like, or at least decreasing the percentage of runs we do for them. right now, it's about 40-50%...I would like to see that down to about 25-30%. As a dispatcher, I know drivers really don't like having to run for lower than their...

I'm a diehard bears fan, back from when they had Bob Avelleni at quarterback. I seriously doubt the NFL "wants" the bears to go undefeated. Are you somehow hinting at a conspiracy? Denny Green beat up the podium, may lose his job, and fired his offensive coordinator...does that sound like a...

I agree with that statement 100%, but you must remember, Under the Emery and Menlo regime, NLM was a huge part of our business. This is why I keep emphasizing that we are under SERIOUS transition, more than likely AWAY from things like NLM. the UPS Sales force is probably going to throw more...

Good one...but I got BOTH of them covered....peace;)

Not right now, but we will. Not sure when that will happen, however.

At $1.45/mile, it's very difficult to bid on NLM loads and get any awarded to us. I know one nickel is not a lot, and I also know there are expeditors out there who are paying $1.20/mile for the very same reason. I guess management's mentality is this: would you rather have 1000 miles a week @...

For all of the hundreds of applications we have received, we have a serious lack of drivers who want to do local/airport recovery/delivery runs. I'm currently looking for CV/sprinters to do airport drops and deliveries In the NYC area (only one for now) as well as the same for the LAX area. As...

I predict that we will need both OTR and local in the near future in that area...probably right after the new year.

No need for a Straight truck in IAH, at the moment. Check back with us near the end of October...

Boy, you guys are tuff...;) we are trying to be very careful and strategic about WHO we hire as well as the quantity. Those of you who have managed to speak to me on the phone understands exactly what we are trying to do, and I have taken it upon myself to send out as many emails (the one...

Not right now...maybe in the near future

A sleeper is not necessary for a ST, since the driver is solo. At this time, the atlanta market is closed...I've got enough drivers being processed for that area right now...once we explode down there, I will let everyone know when we will start hiring again. peace;)
