    A WalMart experience

    Yeah - and if I thought I could get the same results, I'd leave my keys at every WalMart in the US, and call the subsequent income "creative writing", lol:D:D:D However - it only works when it's unplanned, and genuine.

    Bad News

    Joe, not sure if this is what you're referring to, but the area where the trachea splits to enter the lungs is called the carina. If the oncologist says it's the best kind to have, that's good news, I think - at least, it's the best news you can get under the circumstances. I hope it all goes...

    Neccessary technology

    Beside the fact that the Garmin eliminates all the extra clutter that you don't need to see, it's great advantage is that it's dash mounted - you won't need to change your entire focus, as you would when switching from laptop to windshield. That micro-second it takes to refocus on the road...

    Using Freight Brokers and UShip for back loads.

    Panther does not penalize you for booking backhauls. They do arrange the load, after you have the broker fax the details, for which they take 15%. That's a fair amount, IMO, as it ensures that you will get paid for the load, along with using Panther's insurance. As for how long to wait before...

    no loads after oriention????????????

    Oh Alborada, you think Dieseldiva is full of negativity now, just wait until she reads your offer to go on the road with Doggiedaddy, who is her husband. :eek: Ms Diva appears to have an axe to grind with the Moderators here, she very often finds fault with what they do, or don't do. Mr...

    Politically Correct Names

    I am personally offended every time I cross the French Broad River - are American broads not good enough?! I mean sure, the French have the advantage when it comes to cuisine, fashions, perfume, and a very sexy language, but does that make American broads chopped liver? Why do we get dissed this...

    A WalMart experience

    This story happened a few years ago, when I was a B unit O/O. I got a load offer, just as the techs at WalMart in Chicago had started to change the oil. When it was finished, I left in a hurry. (Too much of a hurry to go back inside when I found they'd left the van unlocked, windows down, and...

    no loads after oriention????????????

    Well, I'm glad that things are getting worked out here, lol. Kudos to Jeff from Panther for speaking up, and to Margo for standing by her man ;), and to all who tried to help - it was fun, wasn't it?:p

    no loads after oriention????????????

    As both the carrier and the driver rely on each other to succeed, the concept of teamwork would be one to stress. If the driver is available 24/7 to accept loads, then dispatch should be enabled to deal with issues such as these, 24/7 as well. :mad:

    no loads after oriention????????????

    Russia is a nice healthy swim from Alaska. Which is American, so we are really neighbors, yes?

    no loads after oriention????????????

    Um - which question do you want me to answer? I know where Russia is, but have no idea how many Republics, or languages, it has lately. And I'm not even willing to guess at what the other half of your half Italian other half might be! Are you planning to join him, here? Because I would like to...

    What is your cost 2 run per mile?

    Bravo, Turtle! You have become my hero, dethroning Fred Flintstone from that long held spot. Higher praise, I cannot offer, than to promise to never eat another bowl of turtle soup, lest I inadvertently deprive the world of another like you. :D Crawl on with pride, terrine.

    no loads after oriention????????????

    Domino's pizza is Italian food? I guess so, if Taco Bell is Mexican....but it's not GOOD Italian food! It's not even good pizza, lol. Charlee is right, your husband should have taken the short run, just to get out of the Seville area. Then he might have got a better load, with less...

    Nutrisystem...

    People do a variety of things, from nothing, to keeping professional exercise equipment in the box, (or a bike). joining the Y, or Gold's - there's a lot of ways to stay in shape. (Mine mostly involves forgetting where I parked the truck, and hiking all over the lot, looking for it, lol. ) One...

    no loads after oriention????????????

    "Unsolved nationality"? THAT sounds like a tv show worth watching, lol.:) Alborada, we want to help, or try to, at least, only we don't know what the reason might be for your husband to sit for so long. Has he asked the dispatcher at Panther what is going on? If so, what are they saying to...

    What is your cost 2 run per mile?

    Someone is certainly putting their foot in their mouth in public here, but it isn't Nightcreature. He even said he didn't mean to upset you, which was very gracious of him, considering the arrogant attitude you've displayed so far. You admit that you know little or nothing about expediting...

    Erase Private Mail Box

    I hope you get it cleared up, Broom, cause I just tried to send you a pm, but it said your msg box is full :( Let me know if you make space, or just call me, either way. One thing that's different with this format, is that it saves the msgs that you send, unless you uncheck the box below the...

    FedEx C C Snitches

    You know, Greg, that Phil doesn't remember you could be a compliment of sorts - had you been grubby looking, wearing a food stained shirt that didn't cover the potbelly, and bedroom slippers, he'd have definitely remembered you...:)
