    Debris Removal Charge?? Permission From Dispatch??

    Brisco, It isn't FedEx, it is the driver/owner who is anal about collecting a fee I can count on one finger the time I got a pallet removal fee from FedEx and that was only because the customer put that in the instructions and dispatch accidentally disclosed the fee to me. I asked other...

    Shame on congress and Obama!!!!

    AND what are you talking about? The best thing that can happen is a government shutdown, I mean everything but it won't happen. Some people will have to work, but their pay is deferred while others are on unpaid vacations. Maybe it should be shame on the American people for tolerating the bs...

    children as employees

    You are stepping into the accountant's world, I would find one, have them explain to you what it takes and what the problems are in doing so. It isn't as cut and dry as many get away with and there are some steps that you have to take - so get real professional help with it.

    DPF and cummins ISC

    Dave, for some reason recall and cummins are not words you see together often. They have claims against them with the killer dowel pin and the 6BT/ISB engines and refused to do anything about it, even under warranty.

    The Plastic Chair

    what an obtuse but in the box observation. Go through the process, take the test and see how hard it is before you make a stupid statement like that.

    Linda, you do know your not the first cascadia box truck? Trying to figure out who has the Lonestar with the box on it, it was west bound on 180 yesterday and didn't catch the company.

    DPF and cummins ISC

    DPF would not have CAPS. Its CR. Are you guys idling at all? I mean for say 10 hours at a time?

    Rand McNally TND 710 - Anyone?

    What I didn't like was the customer service and the unprofessional approach to the entire product line in regards of support. I would think that bringing a product to market by a large company, they would have covered all their bases and approached it with some sort of idea that the customer...

    Garden Corner 2011

    I was told that yesterday and told my customer that if I was, I wouldn't be in a truck. By the way, I came across Kitazawa Seed Company, check them out if you like Asian veggies.

    Rand McNally TND 710 - Anyone?

    IT depends on what you drive. There shouldn't be much difference between the two TNDs. I have at this point a cobra 7750 I'm testing and a teletype 7400 in the box ready for testing. I tried to test a TT7300 but there was a problem with the camera inputs like the last one I had. I think the...

    FedEx Ground ISP Transition, Expediting Ramifications?

    I think this also speaks a lot about how they don't even view you as a separate entity - contractor. By making a decision without your input, it looks like you are an employee. By the way, I don't think you are even close to being off topic, the question Phil put out there is if the actions of...

    The Results of One More of barrys Screwups....

    Chef, I was told something rather interesting today by a Muslim; People seem to think that just because Obama (he called him some really nasty Arabic name) that he has ties to Indonesia and the Muslims there does not mean that he is actually taken seriously by Muslims in the Middle East. He...

    Frances Fox Piven

    I have to ask, what bureaucrat selected that job for you and told you if you don't take it, you will end up in a reeducation camp? Outside of feeding your family, which is not the reason I'm asking, I don't understand your defensive position on what I said, you were not the target nor was it...

    FedEx Ground ISP Transition, Expediting Ramifications?

    I agree with most of what you are saying but remember that you are part of Freight, and not all that independent from them. The contract thing is a whole 'nother issue but it is really blurring the lines badly. The investment that you and others mention I don't see it. I mean knowing...

    Frances Fox Piven

    Joe two things, I was trying to make a point about his link, nothing more. The fact is that he pointed out that hunters are the largest army we have and that may be true but it is also true a lot of hunters are liberals or support liberal causes, like UNIONS. AND EVERY UNION MEMBER HAS A...

    No fries for you!!!!

    I see your point. Well let's see... working for one of the pharma companies who makes a lot of anti-depressants, we were told during the phase III study for one of those hot selling drugs that these are not meant to be given to anyone under 21, let alone someone who is 10. You and I both...

    Joe, you take things too personal, settle down. I did it to emphasis a point with Brisco there who doesn't seem to get what I'm saying.

    FedEx Ground ISP Transition, Expediting Ramifications?

    I understand what you are saying but you may not know the rest of FedEx. I mean if you are White Glove, then you are a small percentage of the CC fleet to begin with and most who are in the fleet haven't made a substantial investment to actually be a majority of the fleet. I don't know... I...

    Aspirin shouldn't be used with Pickles. Some people think it will help speed up the pickling process while others think it cuts the acid in the juice and fruit - neither is true. AND neither is true that it changes the ph level for tomatoes and beans for canning. Aspirin contains salicylic...
