Lost in Marryland. oh how much fun....

Huh? Mediocrity?

The last time this one was in under FedEx, I had to have it validated.

Then it goes right back to this; It all depends on the company. Seeing that FedEx does keep you loaded, they either are working hard to capture that freight or taking it from others or are tapping other areas of the company. Other companies may not do that, and that is where I am going with...

What's A/C?

OVM, Sometimes it is those RV'ers. I sat at a walmart and watched 'campers' throw crap all around the parking lot.

But that's not always the case. If the carrier can't produce the work in slow times because there isn't anything out there but general freight in that area, then there is no advantage. The one thing that comes to mind is if the carrier picks a "qualified" truck over those who are not...

Guido, Steve is in a different category altogether which in a way makes his numbers not equal to mine or someone else's. E units seem to be the one thing on the road that can capture freight from all levels, even though they operated at a higher cost, they also get a higher revenue in this...

Then shouldn't be 2011 super bowl? There isn't another one, is there? I just equate it to the same thing in Hockey "where the defending champs are playing". What are they defending against?

I think beck was trying to take over the M&Ms factory at one time - armed take over I think he was advocating.

Well linda, I sort of see what you are getting at. BUT ... I like it when people say "I was on Diet X, stopped and then I gained all the weight back" Duh! Of course you will. Any diet is the guideline that you follow to eat better, you make it your eating lifestyle when you make it...

Well it looked like it

Does the super bowl start in 2010?

Wow, you don't want to use a diet because it cause a permanent life style change? Sorry something seems wrong with that because that's what you want, to make it permanent not a fade. While the diet mentioned "caveman" diet does work, it is a lifestyle change at many levels because it is like...

Those are rates as examples. Tval or no Tval, that's a company thing. If they require testing to maintain it, then they should pay for it. Direct pay or by providing you with the minimal amount of work to pay for it. Base rate is loaded mile, not all miles and not including FSC. The point...

Linda, maybe FedEx CC is telling you that so they can cover their a** but it seems that is a line of BS. Canada and the US along with Mexico and the states are members of the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance (CVSA). That sticker on the windshield is a result of their work and this is the...

This is what I was told. If I get a level one I get a sticker on my windshield. I don't need an inspection sticker from a level one but that windshield sticker. The inspection sticker is an annual thing (not bi-annual that's carrier policy) so chances are you will still be within that...

One rate - say a $1.30 a mile. If a lift gate is used, then there an additional 5 cents a mile. If a reefer is used, then there is an additional 15 cents per mile. If the load is over say 15k, then there is an additional 10 cents a mile. All of these things cost to use in one respect or...

The diet is called The Paleolithic Diet. You simplified it but here is the thing, there are grown out of the ground things you can't eat. Beans top the list. NO beans. This does include Cashews, Soy products and Peanuts - all beans. No grains including rice, bread and so on. You can have...

Yep... because the state authority is doing the inspection. I would think it would be foolish for a carrier to say "ok seeing you had a level one, we are going to make you go through another inspection just in case" if you passed. If you didn't pass, then that's another issue. Now even if...
