    Mitt Romney,champion of the working man

    I haven't made up my mind on any particular candidate. One thing for sure, I don't think Mit Romney is the answer for Detroit. And to be fair, I don't think Hillary is the answer either.

    Probably not much to explore if his requirements are to net $150,000 per year driving a fleet owners truck.

    OVM bails out

    I like the Cost Rica gig idea. Don't see anything wrong with questioning something. Afterall, that is what our country is all about. But if your going to come in and then complain and do nothing, better off headed back home if it is better. Funny, I don't think that is the case since so...

    Panther driver placement assistance?

    I will send you a PM with a team that is looking to drive a tractor. I can't tell you anything about them, nor do they have any endorsement from me. They do want to drive for Panther. Your profile doesn't list your location, but I believe they are from Wisconsin. Just a lead. Your own your...

    Panther driver placement assistance?

    Let me first start out by saying, I have trucks leased to Panther, but am not a recruiter. It is true that Panther puts out a lot of money on advertising to recruit potential drivers. You situation is more challenging because you are looking for tractor drivers. There are many more companies...

    What does it take to get YOUR attention as a driver today?

    Probably just being reliable and honest as some have eluded or mentioned. As simple as it sounds, that is not always what is delivered. Secondly, would be to provide REALISTIC expectations as to what the industry offers. Most prospects are going to be independent business owners and need...

    1 Week Off Limit

    There are several Panther's in the truckload business. Panther that does expedite (Seville, OH) does hold a percentage for insurance or anything like that. As long as your insurance meets their dollar amounts, you can buy it anywhere and handle it yourself.

    starting up

    As Robsdad mentioned, I would start at the newbie section and the FAQ section. Then you have to decide if you are doing expedite loads, or basically LTL. Those are two different things. Also to serve your purpose, I would read back at least six months of the General Forum to gain a working...

    Thoughts on this pay scheme.

    My thoughts???? You are getting ripped off if you are paying the fuel and only getting part of the FSC. I think I would be looking elsewhere. It does beg the question, how much of the FSC are you getting?

    guitar playing

    Thought I would reserect this thread a little because I seen the Malmsteen guy. Very good guitarist that I seen in a group called G3 which had Satriani and Steve Vai all together. It was pretty awesome. Malmsteen is more of a student of Richie Blackmore from Deep Purple/Rainbow days. Now...

    United Van Lines

    Very true. You have to obtain the freight from the source. If it passes through too many hands, it just becomes cheap freight.

    I'm finished with Windows!

    I'm using XP and staying with that until the fallout. Don't like the Vista. Too slow. Don't know much on the Linux systems? I know mapping is an issue and I don't the my PC miler and other software will run on it?

    United Van Lines

    Some upsides and some downsides, so we do both. If anything, another call that might produce something?
