    Flat rate???

    Nope! IF I get out of expediting I am NOT going into ANY part of the freight/transportation business.

    Flat rate???

    It's only worth a nickle a mile for the added expense of a liftgate? For maintaining a security clearance? The added "risk" for certain loads? Sounds like a real "steal" for someone.

    Flat rate???

    $1.25 is what a van rate should be with today's cost, at a MINIMUM! Sprinter rates should be more like $1.50, minimum. All before FSC etc. That flat rate is a money loser for contractors and will lead to a less reliable fleet.

    Flat rate???

    $.80 DOWN from $.85? WAY too low to start with. I guess they believe that LOWERING rates is an incentive to buy NEW, more EXPENSIVE equipment. I wonder if anyone there is running for political office? Sounds like the kind of thinking we see from politicians.

    Flat rate???

They also said that you could stay on the "percentage" rate, as opposed to the $1000 per year plan when they rebranded, that did...

    ACLU: NSA’s PRISM Program is Doubly Illegal

    They will argue back and forth for a while, then let the story "fade" on it's own and continue as always. It's all for show.

    ACLU: NSA’s PRISM Program is Doubly Illegal

    WE, as a nation, keep putting them into office. There will be no real change until we stop electing the types of people we are electing. Unfortunately, nothing is likely to change. The "gimmie goobers" want their freebies, the "unions" want their share of the control. The "parties" don't want to...

    ACLU: NSA’s PRISM Program is Doubly Illegal

    Keep voting them in and NOTHING is going to change. ALL "stuff" flows downhill. Always look to the top to find where the problems start. *HINT* Party affiliation does NOT matter.

    Fast shooter?

    Better than even chance he would have problems hitting live targets, even greater if in a layout boat. Many times those pro shooters can only hit targets that can be timed. They are used to targets that move in one direction, in this case, straight away and rising. They have to stand a certain...

    Oh wow!

    To say there is a LOT of work that goes into that even it an understatement to be sure. Several of us went to get something to eat after we unloaded the truck at the shed on Sunday after. The talk was what we may want to do different for next years dinner. It's starting already. It actually...

    How did you get Started in Expediting ?

    I was the manager of the fishing department at a Gander Mountain store in Taylor, Michigan. It became clear that it was a dead end job and that steps needed to be taken to get out of it. One of my employees was looking into expediting and told me about it. I spent a LOT of time on EO, reading...

    What I need for the zombie apocalypse cannot be stored on a hard drive, but can be stored in a hardened bunker.
