Had some great conversations with some great expediters this week. Learned alot and am excited. You never stop learning.

Thank you Solar. Wishing you continued success and safe travels. Regards, Mike

I do understand that, and, thank you.

Hi Solar, I hesitated to post this. I don't typically post much at all on any social media, I just don't like how so many posts, or comments to them, take off on a negative tangent. "They’ll be out of the business within a week"...I don't think so. As you stated, "jokes aside", so I accept...

So, this has been an extremely long journey. As you all know, things change, life happens and not always as we had planned. I started checking into Expedited Trucking around 2006/2007, I know, that’s a long time ago. I went to an evening workshop and I believe it was in Dundee, MI. I also...

I had the opportunity to see this movie at MATS. I am curious to see other's opinions about the movie. I will keep my review for later. Regards, Mike

U.S. Army (52nd Engineer Battalion) 1980-1984. Army Reserves and National Guard 1986-1994. Best regards, Mike

Thanks Arkjarhead, Both tanker and flatbed are areas that interest me more than dry van. Have some low boy experience while in the National Guard and Reserves hauling heavy equipment (engineer units). Also have limited experience pulling a reefer hauling mostly produce but didn't...

Crazynuff, Thanks for the information. I have been doing some research on Schneider, in particular, their bulk division as this area has captured my attention. I understand the dues I must pay for the first year or two but also believe that the opportunities will be there once I have...

Thanks Reverand, I'll do so. Regards, Mike

Tennesseahawk, Thanks for the link. Look forward to doing more research. At least I have some time before I need to make a decision. Best regards, Mike

GoGrammaGo, Thanks for the encouragement. My wife and I have discussed running as a team but that would be several years down the road. A lot can happen between now and then. Who knows, maybe Expedite!! Best regards, Mike

Hello All, I will attempt to keep this short; I don't mean to write a long post. My first time starting a thread; however I have been visiting EO for the past 2 years or so, attended a workshop near Detroit and the Expedite Expo 2007. I appreciate very much all the information that is...

Probably wanted to use a couple ones and get a 5 spot back instead of having additional ones in his wallet??? Regards, Mike

"And some of you want truckers with guns?" If done so legally, not a problem. Several years ago Michigan became a right to carry state. Although legally carrying a concealed weapon is still quite limited as to the places one can carry, I certainly would like to see all states recognize and...

All mentioned are great movies. I also enjoy National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, what a hoot!!! Mike

Broom, thanks for the post. What a refreshing change of pace for this forum. Yes, I do believe!!! Best regards, Mike

I just ran across this quote. What a difference this could make to your wife should her dad take this to heart... Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to...

Dog, Thanks for that post. I've been lurking in the shadows for quite some time now, actually about a year. I am currently not driving but still hold my CDL B license. I have attended a workshop in Monroe, MI and the Expo in Wilmington this past July. I sure have the itch and desire to...

Let's hope this will start a trend on bringing jobs back to the U.S. I have seen first hand where many assumptions are made when a decision has been made to send production to a foreign country. Sometimes the big picture is not taken into consideration. The objective is cost savings, but...
