Welcome back to the world of the working man Eddie!

Glad you guys are ok. Exciting day of insurance meetings again today. More charts and graphs than you can shake a stick at.

Insurance traditionally is always due up front. If a carrier is giving payment plans it is really acting as a "bank" and using that interest up charge as a revenue stream.

My buddies at home were just texting me about the thunder snow. Crazy.

Good morning gang. Hope everyone is doing well.

Don't worry I am still connected :) and far from empty.

Zorry is dead on. Problem is it seems many would rather pay for cheap policies that do not meet the legal requirements or cover what the operation is truly doing. 4500 to 5k for liability is pretty normal and that doesn't include phys dam or bobtail. If you are paying way less it's a quick red...

Well more than some less than others. :)

As most know. I am not really good at disconnecting. LOL. Still in coffee but the Jameson will be flowing shortly. A little debate is always healthy. But I think we can all agree 2014 is looking better out the gate than 2013 did.

Nailed it!!!!!

Good morning gang. Hope you all have an above average day! :)

The yard can be very deceiving when you look at the Mac 19. The local trucks and the Canadian units can completely distort it.

Well that is the point of it all? We are looking at averages over a period of time. Who links at a week or two and makes decisions? Poor operators who jump from carrier to carrier that's who.

Because if every truck runs long enough the law of averages prevail. It's simple math. Will some smarter operators always do better? Yes. But will they do better a t a company with better averages? Yes. Also the inverse is true. Not sure of the argument here??? Should I pull your numbers?

Ok seriously this was the funniest part of my day.

Everything comes at a cost. But let's be honest, we would miss him too much. Although we could keep Juju??? :)

This is where they need a LOVE button. Like just doesn't cover it.

A percentage of the fleet is always out of service. That is a pretty consistent. So that goes back to the averages being the real number any business man runs on. That is true whether it is Load One or our owner operators. It is a pretty basic business concept.

Well clearly we can't get rid of you so that tells us the real numbers....... :)

Well have to base it on averages since some guys only work part time hint hint. When you look at week by week and month by month you get a pretty accurate picture. Not sure if the relevance to Panther but I will give you their recruiting number if you need it (poke poke poke)? I have always...
