    Newbies beware! Law of Morons

    BimBim29 You said it SO well. I learned ALOT from the kind folks on this forum, even though I chose to use their wisdom to make the decision NOT to go into expediting right now. I would much, much rather hear the plain, unvarnished truth from seasoned expediters than to hear wine and roses from...

    Expediters Going Hungry, For Real

    Chefdennis, What a very kind thing for you to say. I really appreciate the kind words. Yes, that is my beloved Grandson, Joey, and I don't know what I did in my life to deserve such an angel as him....He is truly the sunshine of my entire life.

    Expediters Going Hungry, For Real

    I HAVE to admit it! I don't have what it takes! I'm NOT a quitter, but I'm not stupid either. After reading your post it hit a nerve. I don't have any cash reserve. I don't wanna sit for days and days without pay for a load. I JUST don't HAVE IT! I'm behind before I even start! I know you guys...

    I sure hope I know what I'm doing....

    Thanks again for your input. I guess what I mean when I say "a great deal of money" is more than the measley $820.00 per month pension I'm on. I have given the advice you guys (and Ladies) have given me a LOT, LOT of thought. I'm not TOO worried about having what it takes to actually "DO" the...

    I sure hope I know what I'm doing....

    Thanks everyone for your much welcomed advice. I very much feel a little better, and I do need to do more research. I know no one has a crystal ball and I know there are NO guarantees, but getting advice and input from someone already in the business can sure make it easier to make a decision...

    I sure hope I know what I'm doing....

    :eek:Ladies and Gentlemen. I am getting ready to either make a great deal of money or I am going to make the biggest mistake of my hard working life. Now I know that every expediter out there has the same goal I do, to make money, but I have read SO many posts and forums etc that I must admit, I...

    Hi Experienced Expediters!

    Thanks. Like I said earlier, I've always driven a semi and you MUST stop even if you are only Bobtailing, because as you said, they are checking other things besides weight. When I was hauling new cars if you were empty the only time you didn't have to stop was if you were in your home State...

    Hi Experienced Expediters!

    I am newer than new mowed grass to expediting, but not to big trucking. I can see Expediting looks like a whole new and exciting ball game. I haven't had a first dispatch yet, but I am working with JD Clark to get hired on and hopefully soon. I do have one question however that confuses me. Is...
