    Call Joe Braum and let him know this. He can advise the customer of the additional charges and we will reimburse you for them. They are a good house customer so I don't think they will have an issue.

    Ok, we all know January is not a fun month for any of us in this business. Freight is scarce, everyone is working hard and the stress level rises. But, we have to try and look at the big picture and the future. After working hard on getting the customer service and operations groups...

    Freight is real up and down. Monday was best revenue day since Jan1. Yesterday was the lowest????? Today is looking better at this point. Some times this business will make you crazy if you let it.

    Nifty idea. I can see if we can have the IT people take a look at that. I know they have months of stuff they are already working on, but I will get this added to the list.

    We require you to have a minimum of $25,000 cargo insurance...

    The sad part is it seems that time and time again it is the owner operator that ends up paying the price. If you are contracting with a company that is really "half" a real carrier you should REALLY think about the choices you are making. I would love to see a list of carriers using this...

    I am sure they would get caught in a nasty and expensive legal fight.
