    DOD clearance

    Its been two years since we filled out our forms, the only question I recall about financials was " have you filed bankruptcy in xxx amount of years". I dont remember if it was 7 or 10 years they wanted.

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    Dave, do you really believe that business varies that much from industry to industry. Smoke and mirrors are in business, some transparency in all. But whether its trucking, food service, or delivering the mail.....well lets scratch that last one, once we sort out the traits that are unique to a...

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    Dave, we dont drive a "lil red truck" but we did leap frog a lot of teams when we got into WG. I'm not sure why, but I pushed hard to get into WG and it worked. We come from a similar background. Did the food service companies you work only have one price list for all customers? Did every...

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    In this open discusion, which kinda centers around those " lil red trucks ", some of the posers are not Fedex. Unity is a cool idea, but if you take a load from me, I'll let the freon out of your reefer.....eheheheh just joking ( he says as he sharpens an awl). But, I understand the frustration...

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    When Linda and I went to our WG classes we laughed at the different types of people and clothing we saw. But it aint my call. If the biz at Fedex deteriorates to the point of my being unsuccessful, byebye. a lot of smoke is blown by all parties. Some here call it warts. They are in every...

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    Gregg, i just reread my first entry into this thread. I am at a loss to see who I am defending. Quoting a Fedex WG recruiter on the current TVAL issue isnt defense , good god man, it is INFO. Commenting on the ability of one fleet owners negotiations skills isnt defending, if anything it is...

    so what would you have suggested

    well, if he really wanted to be like me, he would be holding a 1955 Gibson ES125 as I am. this is my very 1st guitar, got in 1959. still have it, just dont take it out to much anymore. I have with me on the truck a Godin electric w/ midi pu. I have a pod x3 to blow my ears out with headphones...

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    It may be bad biz in your eyes. change from one set of standards to another often irritate a group that may have been negatively affected. bad biz, maybe. If the quality of the product has diminished certain things in the natural course of biz will occur. Someone sees a weakness or crack in...

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    The current policy per the WG recruiter as of April 4th is: if you purchase a TVAL unit currently in good standing in the WG TVAL division and the owner who you purchased it from isnt replacing it with another TVAL with WG, then you could ( if a qualified TVAL driver) take the existing slot...

    so what would you have suggested

    Seems a friend of mine wants to be "just like Mike" well I mean "dabluzman" (all except for the part of sleeping with my wife) and get into the expediting biz. He has been watching Linda and my success??? over the past two years and feels this may be for him. Okay now here is where we split...

    well what about crooked roads......

    Between all the neg vibes about owners and drivers I did some research and have made a connection between crooked roads and crooked owners and drivers. Ever drive the roads in and around the Santa Cruz area. Enough to make an honest man crooked. Any other roads out there that challenge...

    New VRU vrs Clink theory

    I too, as you, will take the high road and not read or reply to anything I have written. Like you "I like to blast someone, just for the fun of it", why? "I was bored and the opportunity was there" Man we are two peas in a pod.....(satire) I wish you well also. Drive safe and prosper.

    New VRU vrs Clink theory

    Duh, your idea of satire is far different than mine. while you may think it satyrical to insult and degrade someone, most will find your snide comments insulting. so as to lightening up, read your lips.

    New VRU vrs Clink theory

    I find it comical someone would allow their panties to get bunched up their butt about the drivers council. A drivers council is a token given by the company to placate the hurt, sensitive, emotionally needing drivers who cant get with a program or just generally cry about the world doing...
