I know its been a long time sine I went to school, but I fail to see how 54 cents per mile is "a decent load" By the way I failed to mention, after del another 97 mi to nearest EC. A EC that is in the bottom 10.

Ok, here comes the first op after Jason`s announcement. 198 mi DH, 97 mi LD, 295 mi TL, $160.30. (54 cts PM). Now, I am to be penalized for refusal. How can I maintain my business model when op`s like this are presented.

I asked one of our esteemed executives why we haven`t had a rate increase in over 20 years. (Express has one nearly every year). His response was the competition prevents this. So you mean we have to maintain our high standards and still meet the price because of Penske yellow rejects.

There really should be some common sense in declaring what is a turn down. Turning down a load with 250 mi DH and 60 cents pd mi should not be considered a "turndown". One of our competitors has a criteria that more than 50% DH miles is not a turn down. Hinda reminds me of the last time they...

This can not only get you arrested, but put on a sex offender list for life.

FDCC Just had one.

Thats why they make pee bottles and diapers.

I lived in Dayton In the I75 development stage. I remember the great debate about which side of the river it should go. The wrong side won, resulting in that killer curve near downtown. Now after nearly 50 years it has been straightened somewhat.

Not sure ypu are correct one this one. When I did local in Houston, we had no time clock. But of course that was 30 years ago. May be new rules since then.

Thanks for the heads up. Use that a lot.

I will never forget those people huddled under the bridge. They were the lucky ones. We had a load of cots for them.

During the Katrina hurricane we picked up a full load at the Jimmy Swigart staging building. We drove the load to the front of the building where it was supposed to be picked up by a helicopter. The chopper was commandeered by a politician, so they had to send in a smaller one, This chopper...

Boy am I stupid. Never thought of having the owner buy it. Maybe he will buy it from me if/when I leave.

I want to thank McD`s for breaking me of the fast food habit. I am old enough to remember when the burgers were served hot direct off the grill. (well maybe 75 per cent of the time).They were addictive. Then the drive through came along, and the burgers started being held in drawers served luke...

Just try serving some of that stuff to a TEXAN!!!
