Actually what I am asking is right on track with the tread's theme. If one is to take say ten runs with their layover options and compare them to the same runs under the flat rate, building a scenario of sorts with the spread sheet, they may find that there is not really lot of losses they...

Jim I want to know if this system works for you. I really think that many are in a panic mode and trying to justify the move by FedEx to change with the times to service the customer, not the contractor. What I mean is reading in the other thread the following; "Here's an example. We are at...

Looks like someone is in panic mode. Yes you can make money at a buck a mile with FSC. Many of us do when you adjust for fuel. A while ago, I created a thread asking if the company would give you a flat rate and they kept you loaded but you had to go where they sent you without refusing the...

AND? this is a local issue, not a national one. The people of the town need to deal with it in such a manner that sends a clear message to the mayor.

Yes why not. If the parents are too lazy to get involved, screw them. QUOTE=cheri1122;445917] Contrary to Mr Shooter's assertions, parents already have too much control over some things - I recall schools being forced to remove books [including Huckleberry Finn and Harry Potter] from...

First thing that comes to mind it seems no one here commenting has gone through the system or had a complaint lodged against them. If someone shows up to your door to take your kids who are law enforcement, I doubt you will stop them. I further think that your nightmare will get a lot worst if...

Ok Layout, I will leave now and go to Canada. I just got the basement pumped out now more heavy rain? Crap another sleepless night for me. Double crap now we are under s tornado watch.

So what's puzzling to me is being accused of being a liberal/fascist and supporting the government while wanting to eliminate the institution of child abuse - better known as public schools. The system is flawed and teachers, administrators and politicians alike lie about the improvements of...

It happens more than you realize.

I do not doubt that this is legit for a second, and commend you on the effort but why is it such a secret?

It goes beyond taxes, the one thing that we are taught with disaster relief is that people showing up who don't have a purpose or there is no need for them can make it impossible to help those who need help. The tax issue was brought up by the OP as an incentive, but most won't care. WHAT is...

benard, I won't say much about being a felon but that shouldn't be a problem with a few owners. Companies may or may not allow it and if you are on parole, you may not be allowed to cross into another state. My recommendations are simple, apply to as many companies as you can, see if you...

Yes I agree, people will go and help and not worry about it, BUT because money was brought up, I try to explain the situation about the subject so no one gets p*ssed off when reality hits them in the a**. I too volunteered as I have in the past, without even worrying about money and this time...

I got all of that and beleive that many won't give a crap about any write off but here is the thing, I've been doing this stuff for over 17 years now and there are a lot of things that people can do and can't do which I am here as I am obligated to do to explain things to people in this forum...

I understand where you are coming from but my point is that it is a Ford and nothing more than a Ford. Ford does not make unique chassis' for low production upfitters with unique custom parts. The parts are the same as with other Fords and the parts are available to retrofit to complete the...

Hey John, you guys donating any capacity to ship things down that way?

Well it depends on your point of view, I wouldn't worry about it if I was involved, I wouldn't be doing it as a write off. I would think that is for your accountant to see if there is. I would think it would apply regardless what you drive. I have been told that I can not write off my service...

Explain why he was.

'03 without cruise, check again. Jack what's unique about your van? Is it a fiat? Every vehicle on the road has a cruise option offered in their option list, either for domestic or export markets. IF you have a good dealer who has a good parts man that you can depend on, have them run...

"This effort is covered under a 501c3 charitable donation reciept on milage ran for this effort!" Just a thought, what organization will this be under? 501(c)3 means little unless it is named. AND another thought, the mileage you can write off for charitable work is 14 cents per mile, not...
