Ahh, you folks are pretty hard on this repenter, after he found it's tuff to $crew the pooch, he fesses up an looks for a hand. You'd make really good company folks (you know the ones you despise) C'mon give him a break. Y'all need to understand....... It only takes one aw :censoredsign: to wipe out a...

Amen Phil!! Way too bad there are so many in the business that don't subscribe to that theory and simply are looking for the roast goose every day insteada enjoying it.

Really?? But who in that list has the most left after paying expenses. That do matter.

It's not ALL just black and white. I'll agree tho 75% is a bit much, say maybe thirty cent or so. If you are that anal bout those things now, jes stick around. Worse *****'in is yet to come.

You'll find out about preventable there Missie when you make contact someday. Bout like the time I was tagged for a rear ender, when a fella put his car in reverse at a toll both and backed into me. You, the driver have a tiny chance of ever getting a non-preventable as long as you are leased...

ya may wanna add dump trucks too Moot. I always got pretty flaggy around them.

BTW, that wuz the end of that contract for me. Way too anal.

Greg, welcome to the wonderful world of Landstar. They once placed me outa service and required me to DH to Charlotte for a safety training refresher after a German tourist backed into me at a toll booth in Chicago. They figgured I needed re-training because of a rear end collision.

I know you guys that have to wait a lot for freight have to keep your mind active. Buttt... I'd prolly buy a ticket to watch ya get the mattress in there.

I'm setting on the bank of the Ohio River with the camping machine waiting for the Madison, Indiana Regatta to start. Love watch'in those 200+ MPH boats fly by.

Well now, guess there is some benefit to running a 1992 model. After all, been paid for for thirteen years. Maybe they tink it won't go that fast, eh?

Not a problem for me anymore, but, even when I wuz making the rounds I avoided Atlanta, Ga like it had the plague. Would much rather run NYC than there. But, i'm certain that it wasn't a nuther horsecrap decision made by management. Things like this usually are caused by customers filth...

Well Moose, all bull **** aside, you should be able to come up with a gestimate yourself. Jes take yer 340 days and subtract how many times you are going to break the truck. Then take the days you mis judged where the freight is, an subtract them. Then, take about half the weekends in that...

Bottom line as I see it, there must be/have been "some" marginal performance somewhere in the chain for a customer to be that anal about the where's of their move. Even so, it only takes a moment to flip the phone open and give some "real time" info to the caller. As far as the distraction...

"No money down" Eh. I hate to state the obvious, but, tink thats how folks got into their present fix's. Guess we'll see how "proud" you are next January or February.

Not much info on your background in this business, but, it all depends on how much you are willing to pay for a good education. I wouldn't worry about the cost of fuel, all you have to do is whine for more fsc. Your immediate concern should be to start looking for a couple "good" teams before...

Don't know much about the rates, but as far as I remember, they only went broke ONCE.

lemme get this correct. Rented a motel? across from a TRUCKSTOP??????????????????? an figgures life is good eh???? mus be extreem newbies, or, terrible tired. i get more perplexed reading this each day. what we sposed to do? fix their window?

The operative words here are "and have a LITTLE left over". Not worth the bother.

You can bet it'll be a headache. Just crunch YOUR numbers, and see if there is anything left after everone else. If you think that move will simplify your life, better tink again.
