Greg334, Ok, I get it. I was under the mistaken thought that all expediters occasionally got dispatched on a Friday for a Monday load. My Bad.

That’s right! Hollywood does it and now it is EO’s turn! Just create your own category and present the award. I will start: Most Entertaining - The award goes to . . . . TURTLE ! His posts run the gamut from highly informative to hilarious and EO would be a more boring place without...

Phil, Maybe if you can offer some definition of SUCCESSFUL then some solo drivers will be able to determine if they qualify to respond to this thread. or Maybe some unsuccessful solo drivers have something constructive to say since you learn more from your mistakes than your successes...

Most of us . . . no, make that ALL of us are in a position to go out of service and take a break or enjoy a weekend while waiting for a Monday pick-up. Sorry, you feel you need to limit your options because you may not "fit in". We spent a nice weekend at a campground (out of necessity) and...

A study of the 1980s recession showed that the improved air quality may have improved infant mortality during the recession. "While the economic hardships imposed by recessions are well documented, Greenstone and Chay said their research appears to indicate a silver lining." Infant...

Now that is what I call Expediting:

Yes, we should and traditionally we do. Improvements in air quality are one of the positive outcomes that result from an economic recession and this one will be no different. One contributing factor is the decrease in transportation related air particulate matter; however, a larger...

OMG!! I agree with Greg. Funny video.

Somebody please respond to this post before lunch. I was planning on Taco Bell but may need to switch to a Subway veggie if this is true. This could be life changing!!:eek::D

If we are going to operate on the assumption that you would actually be ticketed for a milisecond flash of a high beam then you must also rule out turning the headlights off for a second or two because that would also be ticketable. I have peformed too many pupillary reaction tests to count...

We have taken over your shift at the "Icky" Pilot in Brooks. We will load on Monday and head for Ft. Worth.:D Sorry we missed you.:mad:

Doggie, What BT posted is common sense and common lnowledge. I do not believe he has compromised the security of our country and I believe you can rest well tonight.

Los Angeles, CA. Sunny and Hot and the APU decided not to work. Heading to Ontario tomorrow to get in line.

Now that is a "fact"

I know exactly SQUAT about APUs, but we have been using a TK Tripack for one year with no problems. It is quiet and smooth and keeps going like the energizer bunny. I give it 2 thumbs up.

I was humbled by a near death (actually dead for 15 seconds) experience and now I am just happy to be participating. I must admit, it is difficult to maintain my humbleness on EO. A little attitude seems to make it more interesting. I am looking forward to hearing about: PJJJJ...

I've seen two of these types of set-ups lately. It looks like a Transformer truck. Just a bob tail with no stretch that has a box on the back and becomes a C unit. Can it be "transformed" back to a bob tail and become an E unit?? Makes me wonder about the possibilities. First one looked...

Panther ad in the new "Expedite Now" mag. states: "Elite Teams Elite Pay" "Ability to qualify for Elite Services from the day you begin at Panther" Might explain why Elite Service took off so fast. No different from Fed Ex, except they are up front about it. Do they have...

Pros: 1) You are doing your research. 2) Kids are grown. 3) Wife can go with you. 4) Personal expenses cut back. Cons: 1) Solo - Your research will make that clear. 2) Need for $50K - 50K for a goal is great but as a necessity it is a...
