    Seen any good movies lately?

    Avitar, a must see in 3-D. Now I do not like movies in 3-D, however, this is the exception. This movie has the potential to change the future of movie watching. Ofcourse being an exfootball coach gotta love blind side. Don't go to the movies that often, usually see all the new releases on...

    Banquet

    Went to my first banquet this year. Had a nice time. Good food, good friends, good ceremony. Don't know if other expedite companies do this but I thought it was very nice. I have worked at other companies that do this and its always nice to see how the company did in the past year and to...

    Dumb Things Expediters have Said

    Get into expediting. Just buy a van and you can make tons of money. You are an independent contractor and you can be home every weekend and take what ever time off you want. This told to me by the person who introduced me to expediting. :mad: As a side note he was no longer in expediting...

    Missed it also. Thanks for the Cliff Notes version. Sounds like the same ol same old. Seems like I always miss it if I am at home that weekend. Guess I have other things on my mind.;)

    need some feedback on ford vans

    2007 E-350 5.4L with over 210k miles. Uses a court of oil about every 6-8k. Original everything but tires. Replaced them at 150k only because I got a pin hole leak in the outter tread and they wouldn't fix and wanted all tires with same wear and tear. Only use sythetic oil and change every 15k...

    van floor.. 2 finalists compete head to head

    I voted other. As in your other thread I told you what I did. 3/4" I do have a question for you however. Why put freflectex under the plywood? If you are doing it for insulation purposes you are defeating the purpose of the reflectex. In order to secure the plywood well enough you will squish...

    van flooring part 2

    I personally think you will have problems with the e-track higher than your plywood. I have replaced my floor after learning the hard way. My first floor was first off particle board which was a huge mistake then I used 7/16" which put it just about flush and there were many times that the...

    It's time

    Well I for one am very proud of how things have been going the last few months. The light has gotten so much brighter and I would like to applaud all of the hard work done by everyone in the office to help us get through the tough times. HOWEVER, it is time to reinstate the higher pay...
