I remember somebody called a member “a skinny armed pencil pushing geek.” Although I’m not into personal attacks, I’ve wondered if that was the “kick sand in his face moment” that drove that member to leave Expediting and go into the gym business. The post must have been deleted. I’ve looked...

It’s the rates. I’ve been blessed by usually being at the high end of the rate structure. I never needed more than 10 hrs driving or 14 on duty as I always made my needed income in less than that time. Do you really want to truck more hours or do you NEED to truck more hours ? It’s illogical to...

The funny thing to me is how dramatically elds have affected people. It isn’t the ELD. It’s the rules. You still have the 11/14/70. That’s the issue. Running legal is hard. Always was, for those of us that did it. I went out for a few weeks with a student. Parking sucks. The 30 minute...

Neutral always seems like reverse on an uphill.

Part 2 You can tell brokers you have to be in Pittsburgh on Friday. They’ll look hard for a load for you. They know if they find one you’ll run it dirt cheap, a thought they’ll forget to mention to a shipper. I found myself running into a particular large city very often. I started getting my...

The secret to Expediting is don’t put yourself in a position to have to be somewhere. If you have to, work your way there a week early and take time off before the event. You may get lucky and get some shorties. If not, it’s just a cost of doing business thing. Your method is just too stressful.

RedBird forgot to state that he’s a Donut Expert. Former LEO.

I seldom eat them anymore, unless it’s one I know is going to be very good. I’m not going to but that much bad stuff in my body unless I’m guaranteed the payoff will be very good.

Yes. There’s been a lot of discussion through the years. Research back.

This is funnier if you look at the Shipley’s Location map. They’re all bunched up in the mid-south. Now they’re straying 100s of miles out of thier territory to build one in, of all places , in COLORADO ! A guy that can’t sell donuts in Colorado would be like an expediter that can’t get a load...

Had them once in Houston area. Are they outside Texas ? KK like to me.

I’d go with the Big Roads if your carrier allows. Or call the number that I posted earlier.

Haven’t I said enough ?

I just realized he posted this in ask the recruiter. So he is looking for a carrier. Call all the carriers listed on the home page and see if you find a fit.

A lot of newbies do. Until they get to know us.

I don’t care for Krispy Kreme, but I have had then hot off the line, and agree they’re like teenage sex.

What’s your favorite and why ? Pilot coffee is my second choice. I am disappointed that Dunkin seldom has my two favorite choices, Chocolate Frosted Cake and Vanilla Long Johns.

I’m not sure this sight is the best place to find shippers. Although advertising here can’t hurt, it isn’t the place to bring shippers and carriers together. I’d think he’s looking for an air freight carrier. Or just sign on with a carrier that tells him they think they can feed him short trips...
