TINMAN Ah....the correct answer!! Thanks for your concern - perhaps there are others who have this problem, also. Thanks again.

TINMAN The only area I find through the User Menu area is the Edit Profile, which after opening, shows that ICQ is disabled. What is ICQ? and, is this what I need to enable for rating? Where did you look to see that TINMAN's rating was disabled?? Help...

I have tried repeatedly to use the rating system to post a rating to a user on this fforum. I get the window which says, "Go to user Menu and select Change Your Preference". At that point, I get no help. All catagories in the Preferences are selected "yes". TINMAN

Appreciate all the encouragement and advice. OntarioVanMan: all that you say is wise and true in this industry. I began practicing dispatch relations from the start (picked up from reading all the archives). The other two van drivers seem to be "spoiled", and turn down runs, etc. And, obiously...

Well, things have improved for me at Eagle. My last gross was at 725. And this week may be near 1500!. I'm certain that figure won't come up frequently, but at least now I can pay off my fuel bill in full. Had several 150-200 mi trips, and then took one to Dallas, back to Wichita, and then out...

jaminjim, thanks... I think the same of the emad system (causes me much wasted time when it doesn't work), and yes, waiting two weeks for pay isn't right! Your wife's deductions must not include EGL's insurance. However, I DID make 800 last week, so maybe the curve on income is on the upswing. I...

Nice to hear from you, Lawrence. And, thanks for the reply. I met you at the Expo - we were the other retired Coast Guard couple (talkling with Terry Oconnell). I gained alot of insight and motivation from all the people I spoke with at the Detroiter. Tinman

Yes, I pay for the Worker's Comp, Vehicle/Cargo Liability Insurance. My original intent in hiring with Eagle was to develop a six-months' basis of experience for later hiring to an expediting company. Thanks for the replies. Tinman

Thanks for the two replies. Anyone, please add more. My email: [email protected], tr! Tinman

Been with Eagle, driving cargo van for a month. First pay periods were odd, with the additional one-time charges, but now I have a feel for what revenue I can generate for a week's efforts. And it isn't what I had expected, or been told. Not being negativer here - I came in to test the waters at...

for JuJu, etal: this is not mine (though I wish it was), and I do not know the author - enjoy! WHEN I'M AN OLD LADY When I'm an old lady, I'll live with each kid, And bring so much happiness...just as they did. I want to pay back all the joy they've...

Well, greetings, from Tinman, EGL at MCI. Also Chevy Express extended; learning the ropes here, but hope to someday drive the long road!

I'm buying a Chevy Express 3500 1-ton extended cargo van. The 0% is available through the Chevy Commercial/Fleet Manager at my dealership, but it is only offered for the 2003's. I haave found that in my area (Kansas City), the end-year pickings are slim-to-none. After having four bought before...

Thanks again, JuJu Landstar is my wish list. I am going to drive local and some out-of-state for Eagle Global Logistics for entry level experience. I was on a roll last night, with poems and my machines (only one more of that!). Here's my last, and least, offering: I once ran...

Thanks, JuJu I was inspired by your poetry; and just #$HD%$ bored at work, watching those two machines make parts - and ignoring me. Tinman Today the CHevy dealer made alot of sense to me; The rebates matched my budget - he handed me the key. At first I...

Lookin' from the outside, Standin' on a limb; Tryin' to see the action - Want to take a spin. Someone gotta' tell me Which is right or wrong, Cause I'm gonna' stick my foot Where you know it don't belong. Lookin' for your answers...

I wish to thank all who made possible this fantastic EXPO event happen! My wife and I are researching possible career redirection into expedidte trucking; we have read all archived postings for all forums, and just returned to Kansas City from the Expo. Our time and energy to investigate more...
