I knew something good would come out of poor communication :)

Murray, you and Sally remind me of a husband and wife that ran a small trucking/air freight forwarder out of Atlanta, near the airport. ASAP Air Freight. Owned by Jim & Arlene Kolanowski. We (Blue Jay Delivery Service) had a wonderful working relationship with my partner carriers too! They...

Oh trust me its very easy especially on the border!

So unfortunate, as I enjoyed his stories and got a lot of valuable information from him in expediting!

I agree was an excellent video

True, if you bid right on the contract!

I thought you were already loaded yesterday and headed for JAX?

Pose this question to CEO's on here, ask them if they don't have a customer base. John Elliot doesn't employ sales people around the country, nor does he spend time away from his family just to test wifi for the airlines. In addition to the industry trade groups he represents, he's traveling...

I did this back in the day before cell phones.....it was with beepers/pagers. Had no office staff either, except for my Mom (rip) who'd answer the home phone! Expedite is not just about the JIT manufacturing. *The following are some of my examples of actual freight i delivered! It's that...

When I operated Blue Jay Delivery Service out of Atlanta, I had no need for load boards or Sylectus, or NLM, or Alliance. I had a customer base. And from there my reputation spread by word of mouth. I'd get up early in the morning put a shirt and tie on and knock on doors of businesses. If I...

I have agree here. If a small independent o/o has the financial stability and is legal with insurance and authority it does not matter how big your fleet is, you should be allowed to join Sylectus.

I'll have to check the address and if its in a residential subdivision then that will be his residence. But at least it's where I can serve subpoenas too!

I must agree the TA in Morris has an awesome restaurant. I go frequently there when I can as I work on the south side of Morris.

I'd give T&K Trucking a call and ask for Pete! I think you'd do we'll with them. He'll keep you loaded and rolling!

Michelle is Pete's wife and the actual owner of the company. I'm not sure if they're still there, but they lived in one of the subdivisions next to the industrial park where their offices were located. Pete would walk to work. I don't think he had a valid drivers license or if he did it was...

I've read the many stories about T&K. The good and the bad of Pete. I drove his company van back in 2006. While he payed me everything I was owed I know some of you guys have been screwed over. Since I did work for him and I live local to him, I do know where he resides or did! I'm no...

We run a 1998 Ford E-150 CV, and a 1997 Dodge B2500 CV. I've never had any issues delivering into any places I delivered to!

I live in the burbs of Chicago like mjmsprt40 does. If you run I-294 south then work your way over to I-290/I-355 south like Chef suggested *(use Lake-Cook Rd to cut over from 294 to 290/355), then jump on I-80 east. Run it to I-394 south to Rte.30 then Hwy. 41 south in Lowell, IN run east...

Please fellow expediters, excuse #5 does not always work. Two years ago traveling from Indiana (where speed limit is 70) into Ohio on turnpike, around Wauseon area the speed limit is 55mph. Now That is a speed trap and I and the car behind me were stopped for speeding. I told the female...

Reasons, I considered using; 1. Officer, have you heard of the "no child left behind" law. Well my family left me behind! 2. My siberian husky has to go potty real bad! 3. I have to go potty real bad! 4. Officer, my mother -in-law would like some rocks pieces for her rock garden back home...
