I believe my record stands that I have defended MANY people, including Mr. Madsen, when threads were soley designed to flame on. Get over the "big bad Fedex conspiracy". I dont have it. I am with them now because I believe they are the best at this time for my needs. If Lawrence did not feel I...

There's no way to be neutral since the thread was designed for one purpose, which it achieved, further a personal issue. By the way, My involvement in this forum way predates my current involvement with Fedex. My currently being with fedex has nothing to do with how I admin this forum...

Well all rightie then. Enough is enough. We know of course that this thread was soley started out of the good of someone's heart, to remind other White Glove drivers. they can't have dogs...which they already knew. Of course, perhaps it should have been Fedex forum only item, since it only...

Gimme, gimme lol.... I've been runnin a lot of short runs, but as long as I'm busy, who cares...they add up. I cant tell you how many times I've been 5th or lower in line, and got that lil 150 miler nobody wanted, then got one on the tail... in fact, today's "short run" ended up 25 miles from...

LoL pellgrn, I still get people at docks asking me about Fedup :-) . Nah, the new flat rate trial is not a secret, but you know how rumor mills are. The difference will be that these folk will know more of what they're doing, instead of waiting on the traditional expedite freight. They will...

Well, yes....but.... no.... DD you should have got the letter, I did.... at this time its only offered to tractors attached to certain areas/customers that can be hard to book. It is an option to cover those lower paying runs, and/or short mile runs that so many refuse. They would agree to be...

Chris, Thanks for replying to this.. good to hear you are willing to investigate. From what we've seen, most companies dont get involved in fleet owner/driver issues, and we've seen horror stories from both sides. Dale

See, here's the thing (as Monk would say LOL)... according to the report, the guard did not TELL them to move... just told them they couldn't do it. Quote: " “They really did not provide the students a reason,” said Gassman. Balcomb, who is a high school senior, said they didn’t...

It's the common sense aspect that bothered me.. yeah, they could have moved... but c'mon, it wasn't a demonstration.. just a bunch of kids moved to start singing our national anthem.. and instead of nicely explaining that this was a 'quiet zone'... the guard just yells at them to shut up? I'd...

Well, we wouldn't want to be Patriotic at the Lincoln Memorial... Dale ------------------ A group of high school students attending a conservative leadership conference in Washington, D.C. said they were ordered by a security guard to stop singing the national anthem during a June 25 visit...

Fed requires them. I think DOT does too, because when i get inspected, they always ask if I have extinguisher, and triangles. Id carry them even if not, just for extra visability.

We do haul hazmat, quite frequently, so we are required to have company decals and DOT numbers. However, I have had vans with no decals or numbers show up for a transfer. I didnt turn them in, but I will ask for proof they are actually a Fed driver, company id, etc. I always ask dispatch who...

While the General's comments probably were inappropriate in time of war... I'm just thinking if they had been said about Bush, the press would be just sayin "Yup, he has a right to disagree" Dale
