    Trying out Fed Ex/Van

    Dangit, Teacel, ya stole my question! :P Really! If you're doing that well with one company, why switch to another? Especially when the talk has been that van freight is dying. Most van drivers in the biz would kill for 2000 loaded.

    Enough with Panther Bashing...

    Who's bashing White Glove? I'm contesting flawed logic. There's a difference.

    Enough with Panther Bashing...

    If that's the case, why hasn't FedEx bought UPS and DHL? In any smart stock offering, the company themselves will hold 51% of their own stock, thus eliminating a takeover threat. However, this is not my expertise, so I won't pretend to make it so. I'm not saying you'll fail thru the hard times...

    Enough with Panther Bashing...

    I don't necessarily think they'll implode either. But in this "what if" scenario we're talking about, you only have to look back at 2001 to see my case in point. Most companies shaved 10-20 cents off their rate, and freight dried up to a point where many left the business. As long as the oil...

    Enough with Panther Bashing...

    Gib, Phil would be right in his case if HE was in business for himself. Regardless of what everyone says on here about being a businessman first, unless you're running independantly, we're under someone else's rules. We, as drivers and o/os don't have a thing to say about rates, whether our...

    Enough with Panther Bashing...

    If you think FXCC doesn't have to worry about what's happening to their competition, you're sadly mistaken. Until you leave FXCC, you are beholden to them and what changes they decide to make in policies and rates. One of two things could happen with FXCC, as I see it, if Panther undercut their...

    Oil Companies

    Nope. And I agree with you 100%, Highway. Everything can and should work together. It's when one or the other goes overboard that we experience what we are now. A few 1000 acres does not kill off caribou in Alaska. That same 1000 acres in a wetland or rainforest could destroy many species.

    I support Israel attacks on Gaza and Lebanon

    As you can see, the 1st Amendment is eroding away. It won't be long before we're told what to think here as well.

    Enough with Panther Bashing...

    Steve, if I understand you correctly, you're saying (in a sarcastic way) that Panther can make or break the industry. The same way JB and Schneider broke the trucking industry, Panther can do the same, if they so wish. Do you think Panther will undercut their competition into non-existance if...

    I support Israel attacks on Gaza and Lebanon

    Gibson's view is very popular. I'm not big on conspiracies, but in a world that'll put you in jail if you don't believe the holocause exists, it makes me think some powerful ppl want us to think like them. Unfortunately, the truth, whatever it is, is covered by so much bs (by both the conspriacy...

    Oil Companies

    Without wildlife, there would be no humans. I believe in total responsibility, and think the environment holds a higher authority over industry, to a point. However, I don't think that justifies delaying or terminating projects because a sand flea is endangered, or because there may have been an...

    I support Israel attacks on Gaza and Lebanon

    Perfect example of the victors writing history. This is a war on terror. The Israelis are at war with Hezbollah. Yet, when the enemy captures Israeli soldiers, they are "kidnapped". Is it just me, or does that word equate a crime has been committed? Funny... but when a soldier is captured from...

    Oil Companies

    If doom and gloom create profit to those on Wall Street, doom and gloom is what we will get, real or imagined. Nothing has happened in the last 8 years to justify oil going up 500% and gas and fuel 300%. Their excuses are just that... excuses. The oil companies have already stated their...

    something you should never do....

    Let me clarify something. I have never given dispatch gifts. I'm only saying that I don't see anything wrong with it. As far as giving money, like Randy is talkng about, I think the owner of any company would be miffed at the prospect, as those are his/her dispatchers. An occasional carton of...

    something you should never do....

    Can't agree with you on this one. I've heard of this happening with Landstar's brokers. Send em a little gift to remember your name. That's not bribery, I'd call it LOBBYING! Yep... same thing goes on in Washington, and is totally legal. If you want to be successful in business, sometimes it's...
