    Acquisition of Panther II

    My 2 cents... Looks like there's going to be lots of different options about what has happened. It appears to me, that Fenway Partners looks at Panther as a sure thing. They (Fenway) invest monies into companies, they feel, are on their way up. Go to the Fenway Partners webpage and read the...

    Deer Repellent

    Well, first of all, don't put those little whistles on backwards. It will draw the deer right to you! ...and if you try to get out of their way, they keep trying to run in front of you. Kinda like whales beaching themselves. Push'm back in the water, and they head straight back to the beach...

    Live Chat Session Tonight: 1900 EDT

    Great idea, but I think we need to set a day of the week and time, give everyone a few weeks advance notice, and make it a regular event. Or, post a notice and have a live chat once a month.

    Dress Code?

    Right on raceman! I picked up a load in Dayton last Wednesday, and there was another driver (Werner) in the shipping office. He was wearing shorts, tennis shoes that weren't tied and a t-shirt that was, well..., let say, a size or two too small for his frame. What a slob! Most of the people...

    Paid total miles(or)miles per airbill#

    Chip, A company I worked for in Cincinnati, would have paid as two seperate loads, only because you picked in two different locations, and delivered in two different locations. Some companies may pay you for the longest run and an additional stop, if you didn't need to go way out of your way...

    Dirty Mirriors

    I use Invisible Glass® by Stoner. This is great stuff! I spray it on bugs, let it sit for a few seconds, and they come right off. Funny thing is, this product has an expiration date on the bottom of the can.

    how long are you drivers staying out?

    I try to stay out at least a week, and no more then two. I've gotten to the point, that if I'm close enough to home on Friday, (a tank of gas), and I'm in a spot that seem slow for freight on the weekends, I head home. Got to doing some figuring one weekend, and found out that I was spending...

    Oh Deer!

    Now I'm looking into putting a heavy brush guard on the front of my van. I'd rather spend $300.00, or so, now, then another $2500.00+ the next time one of those brainless woodland creatures decides to "cross the road to get to the other side".

    Oh Deer!

    Thanks Lawrence. I'm still running as of now. The damage wasn't really bad, so I decided to stay in service, and I'll look at getting the damage fixed after the P2 contest is over at the end of June.

    whats the difference between chauffeurs and class

    RE: whats the difference between chauffeurs and cl In most states, I believe, you can only get a "C" if you have an endorsement of some kind, when you are driving a cargo van. Here in Ohio, you only need a class C if you need a HazMat endorsement, or plan on driving a vehile that will be...

    Men are happier creatures

    YOU BET! This was great stuff. I was going to show it to my wife, but I don't want to hear the whining and crying for hours on end, "...you don't know how easy you men have it". I'll just keep it to myself. :)
