I didn't say O/O's were scabs. Just that people who look out only for themselves and undermine a better deal for all are scabs...and of coarse Union Bashers are scabs because they would surely cross a picket line again for themselves and hurt others who have put in alot of time and effort into...

I know you are all gonna hate me...but this is why we need regulation in some industries. Like min wage...otherwise it's slave labor. The Fuel Surcharge should be solid set by the gov...not negotiated with the costumer. And the carriers should have to pay a min rate per mile. Then they get...

Sweet...that's where I am...well TA anyway. Thanx again I really do appreciate it.

WOW. For a guy who grew up in a union family...you really hate them. I guess your family should have worked at Walmart so you could have grown up poor an uneducated...well poor anyway haha. Maybe you'd have a better appreciation for those who have little money and no voice. Unions will come...

Chevy 3500 Long wheel Base...room for 2 skids.

Actually...In my opinion of coarse (and yes we all know what they're like) "Collective Bargaining" is in total spirit of Capitalism. But instead of one person (easily replaced) negotiating his/her fees, A group (more powerful and able to put more pressure on the people who profit from their...

I must disagree...from what I've been reading and seeing out here, most here are loosing their butts and don't last long in expediting. Maybe because the rates keep going down because any scab is willing to work for food and under cut the next guy instead of showing some solidarity to keep rates...

All you anti union folks out there....Since you hate unions so much and think Big Three workers are over paid, Do me a favor: If you get an opportunity to get a good paying union job with health benefits and good pay. Please turn it down and put a word in for me. I'll take it on the spot. Thanx.

do me a favor and if you get an oportunity to get a good paying union job. Turn it down and give it to me. Thanx. I'll take it in a heart beat.

Where are the hotter spots for this carrier? For instance...if I'm in OH, am I better of near Columbus with 2 ahead of me, or Cleveland with 5 ahead of me? Are the in between places an advantage if they are more than 50 miles from each major city...less than? I will be near Debuque IOWA till...

Does this come with a free ambulance ride after we slip into the diabetic coma and cardiac arrest or is that extra? Hahaha. Does sound delicious, I'll probably try it. Come visit me in ICU..promise?

1 loaf bread....Walmart. I lb Turkey...Walmart. Free condiments from MacD's or wherever you can find them free. Optional Cheese. Viola!!! Turkey sandwiches for everyone !!!!!!!! YOU ARE WELCOME :-) :-)

I'm sitting on border of IOWA and WIS. Deliver Mon Morning in Monona Iowa. Anyone know if I've got a chance of getting out of here or just DH somewhere. Any suggestions would help. Only been doing this a short while...very new to BOLT. Also, Is there much freight coming out of Stl MO area or...

BTW, You can all thank the continuous "deregulation" of the trucking industry for these barely livable wages O/O's are being forced to work for. I feel bad for the "Big Rig" guys who lost their Investments when the fuel prices soared. I wouldn't even think of investing in more than a cargo van...

Well if they would have listened to Carter and got us off foreign oil in 1977 like he wanted, we wouldn't be in this mess. But Bush Sr. as head of CIA under Nixon already had his Cronies in Oil and Saudi Arabia making the moves like Iran Contra to keep the hostages there til Reagan got elected...

If it's so bad they have to cut rates, I hope they're cutting their QC fees as well. I mean if it's that slow it can't be costing these carriers as much for their QC use. If they indeed pay per txt character. If they want o/o's to sacrifice they need to lead by example. Just my opinion. Maybe we...

Hahaha. That is funny. :-) Even for an NPR fan like myself.

Hey folks. Man is it slow. Last run I had was last Thurs from KY to Fredricktown OH. Finally came home Mon. after sitting in Columbus all weekend. Anyway, I hear some places are lowering their bids to compete. I hope they're lowering their QC bills to o/o's too. When it's this dead, they're...

It's been slow for me too. I just started with BOLT after wasting a few months with TRY HOURS. Happier here even during this slow time. I don't mind sitting for days but would like to know where NOT to sit. I'm in Columbus OH and wondering if Cleveland or Toledo would be better even with more...

Also if anyone out there has or wants a class action against them...let me know. It's not worth the court /attny fees going it alone. They probably know that so they don't bother paying up.
