    Great financial Report/ Plus Cool Pics

    Glad to hear you doing so well. I can understand how you felt about leaving the company you was with for so long. Sometimes change is good and you have shown that to us.

    What it's like at Panther

    Yes that was. I was impressed with the breakfast that Express One had for everyone and I think Rich Moore got an award at that breakfast but wasn't there. That was a great Expo. I was a little upset that FedEx didn't show more support for it at the time and even asked the The VP at the time...

    What Party, Fedex can't afford a party. That's why Memphis came up with the FSC program so they could help pay the rent on that big building in Green.

    Are You A Contractor or an Employee

    Okay I will shut up about Panther when FedEX people shut up about Fedex. I may like them now but in six months I may not. My point in posting about Panther was so people could know what it is like. As Leo said: all carriers have warts. For years I heard and read that Panther was a bad...

    Are You A Contractor or an Employee

    Steve sorry, I wasn't talking about FedEX either. No I don't want you to follow me anywhere you are smart enough to make your own choice. I was talking about people that drive for owners that are leased to carriers to be honest. If the owners that have drivers and the drivers don't pay their own...

    Are You A Contractor or an Employee

    This Question has come up many times over the years. Are you an employee or contractor with the carrier or the owner your with? I must say at Panther you are a true contractor. They give you the CHOICE on what you want to do. So my Question to you is: Are you a true Owner/Operator with your...

    Nightcreacher is telling you the truth. Chicago is a great for FedEx, Check out other carriers too to see what best fits your needs. You will do alot of PPG loads out of Oak Creek, Wi for the KIT team for FedEx.

    What it's like at Panther

    Leo Dave is right, that is what we get for our refer. $1.65 a load mile for any load plus 100% of the FSC and .50 a mile deadhead. Erwin told us in Elite Class if the run is over 250 miles DH they will bump it up to .75 a mile deadhead for all miles. So over all I think it a better deal then...

    How much time do you need to accept a load

    Just 6 of the 7 Right now. The ER unit is the only one left. But if the safety department don't get their crap together it may be leaving too. The driver has faxed the inspection papers and the manitenace report 5 times to the safety department and they say they don't have it. Then he took them...

    no more FSC...oh my gawd

    It all would depend on if I could see what they was charging the customer. But then again they could be like FedEx and run threw another one of it's companys like FedEx does now 1st and take money off the top and then send it to FedEx CC.

    Hows the the new FedEx CC FSC program working for

    I agree 100% Dave. I'm glad some think it's great. But I don't, never have. Why do you think they gave everyone a so called higher percentage because people like me and Ken Jackson and others that was posting things on here. I started this post under my name and was kindly ask to stop posting...
