    From the dark side..............

    That's good news. I am one of the naysayers and say that for a reason - if you are determined to prove us wrong, you will succeed.

    Thanks A Team, sure hope you were right!

    I was offered a food load today at $4 a mile which the guy said it was less than what his trucks get.

    Fedex Custom Critical Questions

    "what divison in CC are you considering?" "Do you even know that there are several divisions each with different requirements?" Chef, they are groups within CC, not divisions. Surface as it is called is one and White Glove is another. They have cross overs between them and a WG truck can and...

    Obama: We're Working on Gun Control 'Under the Radar'

    Oh really? Why do you guys think I support the government position all the time? Is it because I bring a bit of reality to some of these posts where the OPs are bringing nothing but BS to the forum and other like minded people jump in there and they all act incredulous when someone brings an...

    Thanks A Team, sure hope you were right!

    It did start with this on the fleet side but it really started with FedEx being tired of the separation between divisions and a lack of uniformity. Since CC is part of Freight, Freight hauls quantity and discounts rates, it only makes sense to move the CC fleet into a structure that they can use...

    Comng to YOUR Kids School Soon??

    "Both boys are "unschooled," a version of homeschooling" After seeing what Unschooling does to a kid, I would consider it in the hands of most parents a form of child abuse ... worst than forcing a kid to attend public schools. IF you all want to protect the kids - fight to change the...

    FIAT comes to north America

    Yep I agree, Ford too. They have the Fiesta Diesel which is a nice care to drive but they refuse to market it here because "we can't sell enough of them to justify the manufacturing cost" - that is an official Ford quote from their press release.

    Trump doesn't believe that Obumma's birth certificate is real

    Dear Mr. Trump. God you're an idiot. GO back to ruining the lives of people to make money and leave us alone.

    Obama: We're Working on Gun Control 'Under the Radar'

    You know Easy, that's an interesting comment because once upon a time, the citizens were the law enforcement in this country and the term "taking the law into our hands" was never used for a good reason - we can't.

    Open Season On Conservative Women....AGAIN

    Nah, it isn't that I care, it is that I just have an opinion. BUT .... Ragman, the problem is there is no broadcast journalism going on here, it is pure entertainment without objective 'reporting' in the format solely driven by profit, not commitment to one or another ideology. If you take...

    Garden Corner 2011

    Yep the rain had a good effect on my work, it washed the two gardens I had over by my dad's house and took out all my lettuce and pepper seedlings I was about to plant here, my deck garden is a big mess and my cats discovered their cat nip and cat grass trays I had to bring up from the basement...

    OH Crap!

    Yep got no choice but to have it ... actually just signed the new policy two months ago after they (FEMA) kept telling us we had to have it but explained to the nice government lady that we had it since we closed on the house 15 years ago. SO she insisted we do the paperwork shuffle and did so...

    FIAT comes to north America

    I hope they do well here. I drove a 500 a few days ago, I would buy that before I would buy any Ford and won't ever buy another GM or Chrysler. The 500 I drove wasn't a Mexican made one, I think they are ramping up production now but who knows. It was roomier than the Mini, and sure a lot...

    It's About Time.....(Oil Prices)

    True but OPEC is the one factor where they can set production levels and effect the market either way. OK, that supposed to make sense but here is the thing - we have plenty on the supply side right now so why is it so high? Production isn't an issue at this moment because if it was, we...

    OH Crap!

    Well Layout, the truck is an easy fix, the house isn't. I get to do the FEMA application shuffle, we have been flooded out here and it seemed to be subsiding but when I looked out at 1am, the water was rising and so was the leaks in my basement wall.

    Missouri Expedites Relief Trucks to Joplin

    As I was standing at Home Depot tonight buying another sump pump to pump out my basement, I was talking to the cashier about what happened to all of us with our flooded street and I told her I feel lucky because I may have lost thousands of dollars in equipment, antiques and lumber plus now I...

    Casey Anthony: US mother on trial over toddler death

    But I think the real point is are we as a nation want to see actual justice or do we want to feel alright about ourselves and our lives by looking and hearing all the sorted details as some sort of crime voyeur? It seems that with complete meltdown of many of the news organizations like CNN and...

    Open Season On Conservative Women....AGAIN

    Ummm.... yeah .... right ... One rich entertainer calling another rich entertainer a sl*t who cares? I mean who really cares. This shouldn't be a big deal in our lives because there is so much more to worry about. Ingram does an entertainment show that is alright, a little dumb at times...

    Thanks A Team, sure hope you were right!

    Pjjjj, Think of it this way - Customer's needs need to be fulfilled. FedEx is using this system in their freight system - flat rate per all miles when they figure out how much a customer's bill will be. FedEx doesn't seem to care what the contractors think - never did, they will try...
