    fedex fleet

    Ask your friendly recruiter for actual unit count ?? Ain't gonna happen !! Ask each and every one of them seperatly and you'll get a different number out of each and every one of them. And thats a fact !! I had that very conversation with mine not long ago and was told he dosn't even...

    FECC Contest - PITIFULL !!!

    Lawrence chimes in: "Um, am I missing something here? I generally stay out of these types of discussions - but I can't make any sense out of this one. If you don't like the offer - don't take them up on it. It's that simple." No, apparantly you've missed the entire premise of my my initial...

    FECC Contest - PITIFULL !!!

    LDB said: "I don't see how anyone could see it other than as it is." EXACTLY !!!!!! Its a foolish ploy at best. Can someone/anyone possibly argue with a calculator ??? HINT: the answer is no I'm happy so far with most all past dealings with FECC. Just can't get over the fact that some...

    FECC Contest - PITIFULL !!!

    This idea of getting a $25,000.00 check is making morons out of normaly responsible owners. I've noticed over the course of the last 3 1/2 weeks that load offers are getting totally ridiculous. I've been offered 20+ runs that are averaging .60 to 1.00 a mile with deadheads ranging from 250 to...

    teaming a "C"

    RE: C's RULE !!!!!!!!!! "If I am there first closest to the frieght than a D should get it over a C that just pulled into the same town. Fair???? Seems so to me. And especially if there were two Ds there and one C pulled in."

    FedEx CC - enforcement of fleet owners ??

    Spoke with a real nice guy i met this past weekend in Atlanta. He's been driving for CC the last 6 months . He was telling me about a owner in Akron who put the screws to his pay. I guess he did some investigation and found out this guy's got a pretty nasty reputation with the fellers in Green...
