    Electronic Logs

    God look at all the crying about logs - makes one wonder what we have here. Sorry to burst your bubble guys/gals, but there is some ruling or guidance that explains that electronic logs are not by any means a replacement for paper logs and even if the FMCSR says they are, the states have the...

    UN and global warming

    I was reading all this stuff coming out of Bali and two really important things have really caught my eye. One is this comment - from Bloomberg - It's very hard for the public to understand that you come together with so many people to a very distant place and cause a lot of emissions, and...

    Cost of hiring a new driver

    I like the one who applied to drive for me and I got this call saying don't even consider him. I told him that the company thought he wasn't a good risk because of his past and his response he did the time for the two bank robberies, being caught with contraband while going into Canada and the...

    We cannot elect Obama!!!

    It don't matter who's ahead in the polls. Giuliani seems to lose a few points with me on a couple issues but I think the repubs have not gone back to their principles and will hand the dems the white house.

    Body dandruff...

    Go to a wholesaler, order 5 gallons of lubiderm (it does come in 5 gallon buckets) and wipe yourself down twice daily with it and then wipe it off - this should solve any problems you have.

    Where are my messages?

    Well I am lost and I wanted Remus to tell me where I am at. I see this big sign here - it says "dead end" and wonder how I can get back to the I5 without going through the grapes and avocados.

    Cost of hiring a new driver

    Retention can be done if some companies tighten up their employees and be more proactive in sales but that is for another post. The $5000 seem to be the cost of bringing on an employee of a company, not a contractor. even though there is paper work to be done, the cost does not approach $5000...

    Where are my messages?

    Don't know yet, I am just standing still right (figuratively speak'n) now trying to figure out a couple things. I haven't put my salesmanship in gear because it has been shut down for so long, just dusting it off has made me sneeze a lot and I got to get a mask to deal with it to clean up the...

    Where are my messages?

    I am not with Panther, I did move somewhere else but I wondered if Remus knew where I was and how much I made this week (slow for me). I don't think there is a problem with the access to the info, I have been tracked by a few FedEx contractors in the past and if I remember one time it was...

    Bad news on expenses and profits!

    Interesting.... I think that the author of the thread should have told us this before. If there is something found other than a cookie, tell us what it is. I haven't seen the problem but again.... I had problems with AT&T and it only took 7 hours and God knows how many attempts to download...

    We cannot elect Obama!!!

    "Obama regularly attends a Christian church and has been baptized" Seems to me so did Stalin, Lenin and Hitler.

    Cost of hiring a new driver

    I am confused here. A company does not adsorb the cost, it is passed on as operating expenses, most of the time the work of the contractors makes up any losses that are incurred. I would be truly surprised if the real figure for a contractor to be contracted with a carrier, truck and all...

    Dispatchers?

    Yea I know what you are saying, this would not really work for the mom and pop shops but panther and fedex would actually benefit from it but again I doubt if they would embrace it because of the incentive thing - they don't want to pay extra for performance they would get.

    Divorce is bad for the earth.

    Well there is a movement in the UK that is sterilizing the followers so that can't have kids because having kids is selfish. And where did you hear this before? A lot of group members travel about the world on vacation so I am trying to figure out how traveling around the world helps the earth...

    IT IS A !!!!!!!!!!!

    Well it did turn into a p*ssing contest. I understand what many are getting at but sorry to say this and ruffle some feathers, let's face it many problems which kids face today is cause by selfishness, plain and simple. A lot of people are passionate about kids and the wellbeing of all of...

    Bad news on expenses and profits!

    I would take this more serious if; ....they sourced their information, just because they give aggregates of indices's does not mean much. ....they don't have google ads/yahoo news on more than 45% of there page. Three ad panels? come on..... ....they have more details that justify the...
