    Cheap phone ?

    I give two thumbs up to the magic jack. Mine is at home on a solid connection. I have had virtually no problems with it at all. People I talk to have said they can tell no difference between it and a normal phone when I am talking to them on it. I do think a good fast connection is important for...

    enough of the bs

    Sometimes when times are slow I think we have to much time to sit and think. It can lead a person to start seeing things that may not exist.

    NON-SMOKERS, for your consideration...,

    "and a minority of smokers are actually very considerate" How would anyone ever know if it is the majority or minority of smokers that are considerate. How do you know how many people in a restaurant or lounge actually smoke? Many smokers never smoke inside, do not smoke around others or in...

    My advice to People thinking about van Expediting

    Xteam, I think that was a great idea. To some on here with years of experience 1 year may not seem like allot. To those who have never done it before a year could seem like a long time. There are lots of people selling ebooks online who know nothing about what they are selling, they just...

    You need to open the yellow pages and start calling companies in your area. Some are not even open weekends, others have almost no weekend work or do not hire partime help. You want to find out what percentage they each offer for what type of vehicle, what items they charge you for etc. Since...

    newscast on trucking jobs

    this is a perfect example how different people can watch the same thing and see different things. I did not take it as a positive report at all. One of the first things they mention is trucking companies turning applicants away. They also bring up about them being picky now offering no...

    Driving a straight rig w/o a cdL?

    Pj is correct, you can drive some trucks but panther for instance requires cdl for even van drivers. The ad you are referring to only hires same household teams or at least someone with a very strong relationship to there partner.

    Unlimited Phone calling and texting 44.95

    You hit the nail on the head and the link posted was an affiliate link. Boost mobile now has an unlimited voice, text, web and walkie-talkie plan for 50 per month and phones start at 49 bucks. with no credit checks. I think it would be a much safer bet.

    Two Questions (Could be controversial)

    Take a percentage of each settlement, hide it away and then when you make nothing one week pay yourself something. If a freight expediting company gave you a weekly guarantee they would just pay a lower percentage per load and use the balance for the guaranteed money.

    Your Thoughts About Going to California?

    Why is it people feelings are hurt when they do not get a reply they had preformed in their mind? Then so often they post in a way to try to get a dig in at another person? I was always taught the best way to get respect was to show respect.

    Everybody getting paid?

    Your Thoughts About Going to California?

    Indiana although not a large state has a surplus and a rainy day fund. We do not have overly high taxes when compared to all fifty states, but do have a governor that has a business background and has done much to turn this state around. For a rust belt state we are doing pretty well when...
