    Chipped windshield repair

    Yes I have used it with success a few times. The most important things are to follow the directions and to make sure you have a chip that can be repaired. Sent from my ADR6400L using EO Forums

    Looking to start an expediting company and need help!

    With no experience in the industry you are more likely to be wasting the money or throwing up a Hail Mary. I drove TT for 3 years and I researched and asked questions here for a year before I got involved in expediting. I made some mistakes, stayed with a company out of a sense of loyalty that I...

    Looking to start an expediting company and need help!

    There is a big difference in what you did blizzard, you put in the time and learned the industry. You are also running a small company and keeping overhead low. No one is saying it can't be done but that coming in with no experience and limited knowledge is not the way to build a successful...

    NYC Schools ban the use of 50 words for new standardized testing

    Looking to start an expediting company and need help!

    OK now you have given the information needed, it all boils down to money not drive and ingenuity. You can have all the drive and ingenuity in the world but the inability to fund a project brings it to a screeching halt. I wasn't joking or trying to be rude when I was talking about millions of...

    Any advice

    You will run into more issues because you are an independent contractor and won't have 2 years of tax returns to provide. There was that guy that was posting on here about financing based on the collateral, I don't know if he decided to advertise or not. Sent from my ADR6400L using EO Forums

    I get paid %, sometimes its .82/mile sometimes its .50. I had a really good week and freight has been picking up and paying more, I have averaged about $1300 or 1400 a week through the winter. I think it will go up though since things are looking good. Sent from my ADR6400L using EO Forums

    It could just be your point of view, you may think that you are getting treated worse but it is the way they treat everyone. Sent from my ADR6400L using EO Forums

    It all works out, I have $2k paycheck, a day off, and a paid for hotel room. This is the first time I had an issue with the truck that I will lose possible work, I say possible because freight is slow here so I might have sat anyway. Sent from my ADR6400L using EO Forums

    Looking to start an expediting company and need help!

    Is there something that you are reading that makes you think that? Or do you know him? It just seems like there is no real world knowledge of the industry. The fact that he is researching information online instead of just gathering the information from a current business is the biggest clue...

    Looking to start an expediting company and need help!

    I asked a serious question that you didn't answer. How many millions do you have to risk on the startup of this company? This is a very important question that needs to be answered so you can get the advice you are looking for. The difference of having $2 million compared to $5 million will...

    Is donkey being used as a racist term from back in the day? I can honestly say I have never once seen it used in that way and knew exactly what he was saying when he used it. Sent from my ADR6400L using EO Forums

    Looking to start an expediting company and need help!

    When you say you have sufficient capital to invest to start a company that involves what you mention I am wondering if you really have a couple million dollars to risk or if you only have $200k and just think you have enough. I'm not trying to be rude but you would really need to give a rough...

    Update on Jack Berry

    Death is powerful. It will stop the best, the worst, the strongest, the weakest, the fastest, and the slowest. It does not care how rich or poor you are, how much you have or what you lack. It makes us miss those we had bitter feelings towards and creates bitter feelings towards those we love...
