    where are the loads

    You just had to bring up Panther again. They seem to be making money, they don't seem to be hurting their drivers by worrying about 4 cents. Well here is the thing. The impression I get is the management of your company is pretty frickn' cheap and it reflects in how you present it to us...

    Will the D-12 defend this?

    I was speaking to this specific case and the issue with comments about hiding the phone.

    Lied to over and over and over and over and over

    OK if that's the case, it is the dispatchers problem, not mine. If it was my contract, then I would understand that but to ask for details outside "I have icy conditions and I am parking" is all I should have to explain.

    Who's contract? The owners with the company or the company with NLM?

    Hello, new to expeditors.

    Dispatch, sorry to beat up on your post but I'm bored tonight and ... well bored ... and ... find this a bit amusing. I think it is a matter of opinion. I talked to panther a few times and I never got the impression that they were rude or didn't know what they were doing. Panther, like my...

    That will show me that the company doesn't want to professionals in control of the cargo, just people who don't care but will do the job no matter what. When there is an issue with weather, if the driver doesn't feel right about driving, then the driver should not have a hesitation to say "I...

    Will the D-12 defend this?

    I kind of agree with you on this to point, but the problem I am having is the bases for the argument that the cop was wrong and the people who were recording it were actually seeing the entire picture of the event. The station owner, who saw everything was interviewed and said that the cop was...

    Donald Trump 'planning to run for President'

    But see Leo, he can very easily do just that - complain that they are out to get him, drop out of the race and get right back in. The temperament and egos are about the same, perot and trump among others have this aire about them that is stamped on their forehead "I'M D*MN SPECIAL" and they...

    Donald Trump 'planning to run for President'

    Well I don't think he is really any conservative but more like an angry liberal Hollywood type. I would have him just give the money away to those who need it instead of trying to inflate his ego any more.

    the art of repositioning

    On top of what Geo said, a lot of companies refuse to give you access to the information and if they do give you access, it is not complete nor useful.

    I don't have an issue with my company, it is a given that I have that latitude to make that decision and have.

    Mexican trucks........again

    I understand that Dave, but I wonder how much of a savings are they going to see? I'm told PEMEX Diesel in Northern Baja is selling for $2.78 a gallon which makes it a bit less than our but not by much to give a competitive edge. The Mexican Government increased taxes on fuel last year, so the...

    AWOL soldier ordered to finish tour in Afghanistan

    Actually AP needs to fire people who step out of their style book policy. The problem has been for a while that they rush things through without proofing them and even with some pieces the headline is not about the subject material - Dog Mauls Kid ... Today the mayor announced that all Dogs will...

    American congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords shot in the head

    Honestly Brisco the wall to wall coverage of this is rather too much anyways. If the sheriff wants to spout off about something, I don't care in the least. What I do worry about however is the need to treat this as something different from any other crime where there were people hurt or...

    Mexican trucks........again

    But they will be paying the same road tax as we are and they will have the same inspections that we have. The labor costs are not relative to the bigger picture when you come down to who are the players in the bigger scheme of things, I think it is the Teamsters and possibly the UAW who may...

    Jump start cables

    Shotguns sizes are based on the weight of a steel ball, 12 gage is 1/12 of a pound ball and 10 gage is 1/10 of a pound ball - both are used not as the shot size but the measurement of the diameter of the barrel size. By the was Browne and Sharp wire size method is used today.

    How is everyones weight loss going?

    The problem with the Atkins diet is that many think it gives you the green light for increased fat intake but it doesn't. It is a tiered low carb diet which works for a lot of people - including those with ADD/ADHD.
