    Four Star Award Party

    Well, at running the risk of starting up old arguments, first and foremost be available. 70% is not that hard if you're trying to make money anyway. Second, go where the freight is. If you know you are sitting in a dead zone then move,go where the freight is, don't wait for the freight to come...

    I am an o/o who lives on the east coast and operates as a single with FXCC and I make money. That said, I have to agree with everyone else. Why would you give up a good thing like you have for the expediting life style?Think long and hard before you do this. The grass is not always greener and...

    FECC- new program feedback

    If I understand everything I've seen correctly,this is not about increasing the rates as much as it is about increasing the freight base we get work from. How many time have we all heard someone say "I didn't know Fed Ex did that. Now we have over 600 people who can offer us to better fit their...

    Your Opinion Please!

    I have been at FECC for 3+ years with my one D unit. I get treated well, I stay busy and at the end of the week I manage to make a few bucks. Can't really ask for much more then that and I don't really have any complaints..

    1st Week Of New Hours

    It seems that by the end of the week some of the dispatchers are trying to plan ahead. At least when possible. This week I've had T-Val and regular reffer loads and with a little thought I could budget my time out to make it work. One good thing about running alone for the last twenty years the...

    FECC Contest - PITIFULL !!!

    I have to agree with Dave. Been in this game 20 years and with FXCC for the last 3. Each year has been better then the one before. You can always say no to the load and if you really don't like the ride, leave. Thats how I wound up here, And the only way I plan on leaving is when they carry me...

    Reefer Units
