    What is your bottom RPM you will run for.

    Looking at the rates you quote we might be able to make the same at Panther. I see little chance for gain. Might even lose a bit as it stands now.

    I deleted that last post due to foul language. If you are unable to control it please refrain from posting. There is NO need for that sort of thing in these forums. Thank you.

    The Delphi Disaster or How barry and the UAW Screwed the Workers

    Yeah and when I was with the government we were NOT allowed to pay into SS. We were REQUIRED to pay into CSRS. That system was TOTALLY underfunded by the government and NOW they are planned on cutting contracted benefits. Glad I got my money out. So much for government being more fair than the...

    How are teams dividing the hours?

    So then everybody is required to have a portapotty in the truck? When ya gotta go you gotta go. Life functions take precedence over ANY law man can come up with. I want to see the ticket for illegal potty stop. What a court battle that would be.

    What is your bottom RPM you will run for.

    Just because they are offered does not mean that you have to take them. In the words of the anti-drug people, "Just Say No". Even with ALL of the stupid low offers we see our rates are WAY up over last year. We just refuse loads that we lose money on. It really is simple.

    For the bird watchers

    All of you who enjoy bird watching should keep this in mind for next year. It is amazing to see all the birds of prey that pass through the region around the lower Detroit River. Our marsh, Pointe Mouillee, draws and hold thousands of them and untold numbers of shore birds every year. The...

    We Bail Em' Out....

    One thing I have always wondered. Why did Canada never develope an auto industry of it's own? You know, NOT a division of a US company.

    TA Menu and food choices

    Mark up is a REAL funny thing. It is NOT as simple as I once thought. That was one of the very few things I learned while I was in retail. There is NO one set markup across a store. At Cabela's it took a gross margin of 45% to make a profit. Gander had less store and fancy stuff and we needed...

    All our rates are going up, by quite a bit. We assume we know since they give us statements for every run. I doubt if they are lying. They would get caught pretty darn quick if they were.

    TA Menu and food choices

    I also eat where I can and don't always worry. Truck stop food is particularly bad though. I ENJOY eating, it is one of my favorite sports. I do prefer REAL food over the bulk stuff you find at a lot of the chains. I am willing to pay more for it a lot of the time. No use packin on the pounds if...

    Why do you think that Obama is Castro's enemy? I don't follow.
