    Question for Bolt drivers

    Bolt may not have been for him, but that doesn't excuse someone digging up stuff from outside this thread and using it as personal attack. Sitting in Kansas or having dogs in the van have nothing to do with this discussion, and were introduced into the discussion solely as an ad hominem attack...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    There were other comments at the same conference from the same scientific community who disagreed with Dose. Dose's comments were hardly the consensus off the conference. The conference was a sharing of ideas and theories, and what came out of that conference was more or less the same positions...

    Have you ever had a discussion where you didn't personally attack the person you were talking to?

    Question for Bolt drivers

    Just for the record, what does Bolt's contract say about auditing the books? ;)

    I do love a good irony. That's hilarious, actually. When you come on here and say things like, "What you Guys aren't getting..." (as if the entire expediting world doesn't know what Mr. I've Never Done It But I Know More About It Than ALL Of You), and "He is NOT an Expediter......per...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    There are several of the Ten Commandments that have no real correlation to modern laws. As well, there are several laws we have today which many societies had in force (theft, murder, etc.) that predate the Bible, and in fact in some cultures that never even heard of the Bible.

    Not enough drivers

    Between insurance companies trying for zero risk, and increasingly intrusive DOT regulations, CSA 2010 in particular, in trying to squeeze out all but the perfect drivers, it's no wonder carriers have a hard time in recruiting drivers, younger drivers in particular. The industry is becoming more...

    Question for Bolt drivers

    If you get paid by a percentage, then it should be no problem in running by the office and doing an audit of the line haul bills. If they won't let you do that, if they don't have that transparency, then you really aren't getting paid a percentage, you're getting paid whatever they can get away...

    Standard reply to people asking for money... "I travel on company credit cards, and they keep track of every penny." End of conversation.

    I'm grasping the facts and the realities just fine. You can call it whatever makes you happy, but you're wrong in just about everything you've posted in this thread about what Morris and his carrier does. You assumed he's running for courier rates, and since he's running out of a 100,000...

    Just the other day I realized that I was glad I no longer live on the beach in Manasquan. I'm glad you're OK.

    Thanks for your insight. But Todd Dills hasn't mislabeled what Morris Finley does at all. The area Morris Finley is running out of is hardly a 100,000 population area. The Nashville Metropolitan Area has a population of more than 1.5 million (the metro trade area of...

    A typical day: Up at 6 a.m. for a 9:30 a.m.pickup, then "seven hours round-trip out and back,” he says, usually with very little wait time at the receiver. “It’s beautiful, sun shining,” he said from the road early this month on his way home, where he sleeps every night...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    I don't think it's an unreasonable conclusion to say that life begins at conception, at least in the terms we can understand, but the conception of anything (life, an idea, whatever) is not the same as the birth of something. If that were the case, then the potential winning run on first would...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    Probably will, since those who like (scratch that, NEED) to tell others what to do will dismiss it as something or another. The problem is, my comments are neither liberal or conservative, they are pragmatic and honest, two concepts that both liberals and conservatives have a real problem with...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    Redefining an unborn "zygote" or "fetus" as "baby", "infant", "person", or "human being" for the expressed purpose of being able to label an abortion as "murder" is nothing more than renaming things to be pretty and acceptable in order to fit an agenda. Unless you are ready, willing, and able to...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    Wow. You're just all kinds of frothy, snapping at people without even paying attention to who you're snapping at. I believe the only person who should have a say in whether someone has an abortion is the person who is pregnant. It's no one else's business. My point was the same as the OP...

    I'm trying to wrap my head around the concept of the "right to be loved", a concept which requires others to provide someone with an emotion.
