Re: Expo "Vans 101" cancelled Immediately following Nicks freight securement class. Gps 101 Those attending will become accredited gps users and will be provided a certificate to include in future resumes and increase their dollar value in the industry. :)

Maybe for us normal people. But remember you have to take a couple days at minimum off work. Isn't 4 grand what you make in a couple days? :p

I have seen a couple web sites of places that offer that service. This one has a lot of locations. FSX Service Locator

It was 3 and is it really anyone's business why. :rolleyes:

The weekly reader, now that brings back good memories. :)

It has nothing to do with my carrier, we are talking about Mexico and Laredo is the busiest commercial crossing on the southern border. It only makes sense to use that location as an example. Smart move maybe you should head there tomorrow. How many cross the border? Keep trying to...

Mexico does not have nation wide cdl or drug testing programs. That was two things nafta required. La Hood went ahead and wants to start the program anyway. Relive me they will get by with things people here do not.

You would have to explain that one to me, I am not sure how it would lower jobs there The actual affect would be increased jobs.

That is revenue neutral, The American hauling the load would spend money on the same things. Only difference, the pay goes in the Mexican drivers pocket not the Americans.

What are you even trying to say? There is no comparison to be made. If I take a load from Detroit to Laredo and some one else takes it into Mexico did I not just get a 1600 mile load. If a driver from Mexico picks up that load in Detroit and takes it into Mexico did I just not get 1600 miles...

Uh no, not equal at all. As long as you get the right papers traveling to Canada is safe as far as personal harm or good roads go. As I said before Canada is a much more equal trade as far as their drivers coming here and ours going there. If, if, if, if. The fact is it is not as safe as the...

There will be no comparing work lost because of Canada with Mexico. Us drivers have no problem safely taking loads into Canada. Mexico will be a completely different story, bad roads, unsafe conditions etc. Heck even our government is warning against travel to Mexico.. The big majority of those...

Trust me there is no reason to hurry back. Take another week or even two.

I would start calling small companies and asking.

What used to be the big three do shut down for 2 weeks during july. Not all are the same two weeks but I think the majority close the first two weeks. If your company runs a lot of auto then chances are it will be a little slow. You can still be in the right place at the right time and have a...

My opinion like in the OJ case the prosecution simply blew it. In this case they never should have went for the death penalty. They offered no evidence that it was manslaughter so the jury had no grounds to find her guilty of that charge.

I do not see the term Hispanics as PC, a good number of those crossing our southern border are from other parts of South America not just Mexico.

Not an advocate for illegal workers where ever they are from. Not in favor of so called reform, the dream act or any of that. I am in favor of secure borders, deportation and very heavy fines for those who employ them. But I also not an advocate for assuming any Hispanic working in the US is...

Never said any such thing.

I'm sure you personally checked their papers. :rolleyes:
