Since there are no companies based out of New England, other than independents, maybe some people could respond as to how their own companies do in getting them out of the area. I've heard that FXCC has no problems running up and down the east coast.

Rlent... I saw that too. Hilarious! I like how he diffuses the "well you're an actor too" people at the beginning. :D

HHUEHHHH!!!:eek:

PLEASE NO!!! And remember, only one refill at Bossleman's restaurant. :mad:

I can't believe no one has focused on this part! A few months ago, they would've told you to stay where you are... everyone is suffering... you'll go bankrupt! Well, I'm telling you to stay where you are! If you think a couple hundred a week is good, then give it a shot. If you think less than...

I agree, it's not the only thing. But every little bit, whether it be sq ftage, liftgate, reefer, accessories, the fact that you're a team or not, the fact that dispatch likes/trusts you or not, etc., comes into play for getting that extra load. If you see the loads on the board, you'd probably...

Oncedrove... I didn't know you were on with C&M. I will agree they are the best small carrier, IMO; but not necessarily for someone just getting in the biz. When you call, ask for Mark. He's not a recruiter, as much as he is an orientation guy. Mark will tell you the straight scoop, and little...

A lot of people think the same way with politics, or life in general. ;) Again... it comes down to how much dispatch talks to you. If you get the right crew, they'll practically steer your truck for you (figuratively, thank you!), by telling you where they've been getting loads lately, or...

Col brings up an excellent point about not knowing how many loads you've lost, because dispatch won't call a 22' box when they know they need a 24'. I can tell you the number of loads that filled up my 24', in the last two years, were easily counted on two hands or more. Some of those were...

Road... I have a 24' box, and have been called many times because the freight wouldn't fit in a 22'. Also, I've lost a couple because my box is only 92" wide. Just something I've learned for next time. One other thing... it depends on which company you're with. Like the Caffees said, they've...

You're right, Greg. Lenin wrote the following about brainwashing the youth: "Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted." "Give us the child for 8 years and it will be a Bolshevik forever." But I disagree on Stalin not focusing on the youth...

I can't find anything like that for Stalin. But Hitler wrote the following: "He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future." and these - a little off topic, but prophetic, nonetheless: "The art of leadership... consists in consolidating the attention of the people against a single...

Unless it was two years ago, and it was Bush's face on the sign, you mean. Right?

Normally I would agree with Greg; and Wilkow when he said the American voter's attention span is like a ferret on a double cappuccino. But I think that when a lot of Americans are forced to get off their butts and go places, and do things, because of the clowns in office, they'll remember...

There are a lot of evil people in the world I will be glad to see go - some I've heard of, most I haven't. Teddy happens to be one I've heard of. Let me enlighten you on class, Witness. Ted had class. His class was the elitist class. He wants me to be part of a different class. The peon class...

Good stuff! I agree with him that Republicans need Libertarians; and like the idea of Libertarians taking over the Republican party. But in reality... I did/do hope we can weed the centrists of both parties (R&D) into their own party, and let the Republicans go back to fighting for the republic...

Too bad Mary Jo won't be able to confront him. :D

Watch for Rahm Emanuel to slink into the VP slot during re-election. He's wanting his time to dance as well.

You can also say 'Look at what elected him'... WHITE GUILT!

Sen Edward Kennedy... dead at 77. Normally, I wouldn't speak ill of the dead; but in his case, I say GOOD RIDDANCE!!!
