"Takes a lot of work to wade through and count the trillions." Ohhhh Davekc, Ya call me out about how much you,( they, them, da man ) dont make, ya even get Highway Star to collaborate your angst over being called a trillionaire, then low and behold you acclaim with pomp and audacity that...

i think after the first year newbie jitters, the second step would be becoming a twobie. because more than likely ya wondered about continuing, or putting it another way, twobie or not twobie, that is the question.

Bummer. I'm gonna be home in Bedford Oh that week, its just, some plans have already been made. BUT, if my Daughter calls off Her wedding, I'll be there.

I have an accountant in Medina Oh who does a number of Fedexers. If interested PM me and I'll give the info.

I can be a little thick at time, but when the light goes on...... LET IT SHINE SHINE SHINE!!!!

What if you had the luxury of a 10 hour ( 500 to 600 mile ) run any time you wanted. Sooo, being the greedy money grubbing person you are you wanted it as often as possible. HOS says 70hrs/8day rule. By working 10 on, sleeper 10 off, then immediately going 10 on, you will hit 70 hours on the...

Hi highway star, in the nth condition of ultimate lose would be a bankruptcy. In my example that is what i was implying. a total devastating lose just lands everybody back to ground zero, no matter how far the fall. i guess i can ask the same question, what is the proper proportion of risk...

In my experience, employees are more concerned with payday and weekends (time off) than a better understanding of the job, in the "big picture". Some may like or even want to know more about what you do as an owner but the vast majority just want you to do, whatever it is, good enough to make...

"For every bad story about a fleet owner, I would imagine the owners could post about the drivers. But, it is a working partnership, with different levels of investment and risk. If "they both go down", those risks are not proportionate." I see we are playing forum tag. The family that...

I guess stating the obvious is a common place thing here in EOland. As to my "trillions" comment, the reason it was in quotes was to be facetious as the amount of money being made. Wheeeeeoooo i hope that cleared the air there. But the comments about us and them are not class envy or even...

davekc, I am wondering who this post was intended. For someone like me who is a driver for an owner? Or for fleet owners who aren't feeling loved in the forums. I do not disagree with statements about what an owner may face its just a little self serving. I know I know, we should better...

cheap frt....it goes BAAAAA BAAAAA BAAAAA Its all relative. What do you need to make money. Cheap for you may be really great for me. Do I need a run, any run to get out of a bad area? Then cheap frt may be great frt. Oh yeah..........baaaaaaa baaaaaaa baaaaa

When he eats his peas and cleans his plate, mom will let him back at the table.

I have no sense of humor I am aware of as i am trying to become a moderator...... eheheheheheheh

The way I see it is you are not showing the actual cost of fuel, but the FSC reduced cost. Yet you left the FSC in your earnings. Best to show the actual cost of fuel, be it 4.00 or 5.00 per gallon and take that as your fuel deduction. In the end the FSC is nothing more than income. So add...

it starts off very subtly, first "they" erase things. Things you just know were there! Then people start to disappear. POOOOF, gone , banished to the nether world. Watch out, can book burnings be far behind? How do you like your stake? thru the heart or on fire?

It almost looks like a word or notepad font that is then copied and pasted into the thread. If it is, set it to bold and it should be okay. ( or even bump up the font size ) My two cents worth, not really saying you MUST do that, you are welcome to use any font you like as you see to use it...

I just hate it when a perfectly good rumor goes bad.

The answer is a resounding...... yes!..... I think.... well being on record as saying you can make money in todays expediting world doesnt change the facts as pointed out by so many, these are very hard times. A one household team will have a better oppotunity to succeed, in my opinion than a...

I would not shut down. Having been on the "management side" of negotiations for many years I am not a fan of strikes. Making a point in a negotiation between management and labor is a far different situation than the we are finding ourselves in today. I dont believe our fight is with our...
