    Problems with Panther

    R&B post, "My wife and I have been driving for Panther since April of this year and have had several loads cancel. We never asked why and never knew how to check anywhere to see what happened to them. We never even thought to. But I will tell you this. We delivered a load to the consignee and...

    Problems with Panther

    I have had loads cancel and I check the shipment tracker to see what I may. The last load cancelled on me was legitimate, with a very wierd twist. It didn't cancel. What happened was I was not the first offered the load. When that happens it means there isn't the ideal lead time on the load...

    i need a witness to prove i am not a liar

    RE: i will explain it one time more ok Wombat, "well i have E TRACK LOAD BARS in place on the load plus a strap on the front one as well as the one in the rear." This is what I surmise from this quote from your last post. I've hauled liquid totes and they weigh around 3300 lbs, fluctuating...

    is panther dropping the position boards tonight?

    RE: is panther dropping the position boards tonigh I'm home. A QC message to a dispatcher should answer your question. It's seems they (J. ST. Pierre or ) sends a QC message stating that information.

    Missing Cable

    Hey Cherie, Firegears had a not so cute but so obvious way of asking if you took resposibility for your actions. Late at night like that it is difficult to retrace your movement, especially in an area you may not have been familiar with. I am assuming it wasn't well lit at the entrance to the...

    Microsoft Streets and Trips querie

    For anyone who has knowledge of the MS Streets and Trips, here is the problem to solve. I use the pushpin symbols to mark specific areas on the map. As of last night everything works until I click to mark the symbol on the map, at that point it leaves no symbol. I hope this is enough...

    Canada Does Canada hurt my bottom line?

    When I ask a question I try to use all the words nescessary to get the correct answer. When I asked a Panther dispatcher how many straight trucks in my area, the dispatcher responded I was the only one. The words I should have used were , "How many straight trucks are on the board I was on?"...

    Canada Does Canada hurt my bottom line?

    I think Ontariovanman is right. Blizzard got a good draw. The thing about "what ifs", you can go in circles forever. You may have just been the one to get a Canada to USA load before you unloaded in Canada. Blizzard didn't mention how long he sat in Laredo, TX. Without the proverbial crystal...

    Canada Does Canada hurt my bottom line?

    b lizzard- it sounds to me like you are driving for a fleet owner who is contracted with Panther Expedited Services. You also seem to suggest you want to buy your own van (B unit?) and contract with Panther. Beyond that you lead me to believe you have worked with Panther prior to your current...
