    GIVE UP

    Its up to the people who hire you, or don't hire you, how long or if they "punish" you. Again, what does your report say? If it says you abandoned the truck, the report is correct.

    Bear Buster

    I often write G.A. on the bottom of a ticket also. That stands for good attitude. These little markings allow the judge to either help or not help the person before court. Legally the judge can't talk to either party about the case without the other party being present but to be practical the...

    Bear Buster

    As a state trooper and trucking company owner I can tell you that when I catch someone with a detector they get no breaks. If they are going 80 in a 55 zone that is what the ticket is for. Most people with a good attitude would get it dropped to 79/55 which is 4 points in SC verses 6 points...

    Perfect expediters please help

    I’m actually flattered that I would get at least an honorable mention in the “perfect expeditor†category. While I have never claimed to be perfect I do strive to be; and part of that is taking the time to type my responses in Word and having my grammar and spelling checked. As we all...

    Perfect expediters please help

    I’ve made a few references to spelling and grammar and make no apologies for it. I’m proud of this niche within the trucking industry and fell most of the people who are in this field are professional, but then you have the others who make the entire group look bad. I feel that the person...

    RE:work with fdcc

    Our total per mile rates for our B and D units have definitely dropped since the change but I think it’s too early to blame anything yet. A few weeks of bad luck could be just that......bad luck.

    C unit Loads?

    A 99 truck and refusing to go to Canada will limit your choices and cut into your income to the point I'm not sure it will be worth it to you. You can find a company that will take you and the truck but most small companies don't have the freight network to get you home so your deadhead may cut...

    questions!!!!!

    FedEx pays a fuel surcharge on all dispatched moves so basically I do the same as LDB. drivers get all the FSC, we split the rest except the hand loading/unloading which goes to the driver.
