Don't count on that one...hate to break your dream up.....but I'll be around a few more years....just hoping for less time on the road.... BTW...have a good day.......hahahaha.....:p

agree to a point.... how much of the MRSP includes "expedite" costs?.... I can imagine the bidding to win a parts contract is very competitive....with the Likes of TRW, Eaton, ACI, Dana the list goes on.....I really don't think there is a big profit margin as many may think...The cost to make...

It's an ...on call, temp position ... Have to discuss with manager how this would work for both of us.....

Proof is in the pudding!!! lol

Tenntrucker kept telling me to get a real truck.....looks like I'll be that guy you'll be waiting for plowing I-90... blade and wing unit thru SD and operating that huge snowblower!!.....LOL

ramblings of an ole man.....:p referring to me of course.....lol

There was a debate?....lol Can't wait for carriers that do the flat rate model of FSC to realize they are over paying the gas cargo vans and way over paying the diesels.... since the formula is set at 15 mpg....those CV's getting 18 mpg are actually have 100% of their fuel paid....

I would think not .... A van or truck every 4-6 hrs is in no way profitable....auto production was much different way back then..... Now many models share the same platform and share many of the same parts.... And many a time we see they really don't need the parts but the supplier dropped below...

Auto parts expedite seems to be the foundation or say building block or core....then there is the say R&R, food industry, military or major mechanical breakdown of a vital machine....which usually has a real expedite need....if you'd take auto parts out of the equation we could probably...

Well Blizz....as you know this business relies a lot on shippers errors, bad quality parts, Logistic management errors, inventory errors....when everyone does their job...it slows down...the idea is NOT to ship expedite because like dead head miles its a direct loss from the profit margin...

Corporations can't win....if they approve of this mans actions and say he gets overly aggressive as deemed by a civil court they could be liable for their employees actions when the accused sues Walmart and that employee....and cost them $$$$'s.... at the same time a right minded person just...

After a 5 week Jan nothing like a week in Laredo in Feb. mid 70's cool nights!

Leo ... I just read the link .... Walmart has reconsidered and brought the employee back.....

It's not Walmarts responsibility to provide a wage for employees to live on.... A drop out from school probably doesn't deserve much more for unskilled labour ...if you can't live on it... Go back to school and or get another job to help their budget. It sounds awfully liberal/ unionistic of you...

I really like Laredo in the off heat season...:) good luck in getting out in a reasonable timeframe.

Ok ... Funny guys.. 1 bank AND A credit union to boot! Thanks for the B day wishes! Got back from Canada on Monday and promptly got a head and chest cold. Ugh and all while ripping out living room carpeting and doing laminate flooring just Judy and I.... Still have trim all around to do, but...

Wrong thread!!

Pull a Cheri ..., write your rep or Senator. It's been effective up to now :roll eyes:

Strikes and demonstrations are always inconvenient to someone....how else get attention to the issue/s? Writing emails has really been effective? DOH not! Sometimes action just needs to be taken! I think you underestimate the general publics reactions.... While any Action would be a pain ... At...
