Big John, I found your story about what happened in trucking at that time,very interesting. The message that you conveyed needed no explaining, it was a story that you were relating. Your words of positive thought have been understood. Linda

Dreamer, Thank you for your post. You are absolutely correct. My guide was written as a helpful, informative, navigational guide for the newbie who is starting at square one. To give them an idea of how it all works, in sequence and if it is for them. I must also say that it is not in any way...

Flattop40, Thank you. What had started out as an exciting project to help Newbees with info about this business has turned into something very ugly with some people. How does this happen? I have compiled information that I wish we knew when we started.This is not a glorified picture or time...

Xiggi, Thank you for your post. You pretty much make the point. The guide was written to provide information to those considering this industry. Does anyone really think that it's being helpful to tell new people to read 1-2 years posts when much of the information can be explained in a guide...

Cheri, When you asked about my new book, I assumed that you were curious about it's content, hence my candid response. I never imagined that you would have such a negative reaction to a guide that includes much of the information that new people ask about nearly every day. I have also responded...

Wow! You are amused that I'm selling the answers?? I have written this guide to help people understand what expediting is about from my perspective. It is meant to help navigate through expediting in an organized way. To have the kind of response from you and Cheri is kind of shocking. I have...

Hi Cheri! Thanks for asking about my new book, The Guide To Expedite Trucking. My husband and I have been in expediting for almost a year. Every time a newbee asks for information, it's nearly impossible to explain everything in a brief post or for them to go back through all the posts to find...

I would like to add to my post that we do not drive a van and do not know how things are with van drivers. We are team drivers in a straight truck. There is a saying 'live the life you love". We are in our mid 50's and really are living the life we love. Life is way too short to waste time. Linda

Layoutshooter, Like and agree with your post. It's true. We love what we do and are always trying to find ways to perfect it, save money and enjoy the downtime. We have a job, pay our bills and have a little left, enjoy traveling and all we see and feel that we are fortunate to not be working...

Mypie, Excellent advancement path! Thats the route we took too. When you show that you want to make money for yourselves, the truck owner and the company by keeping your stats up, you will find that you can get guidance and help along the way. See you on the road..... Linda

Hi! I have a some suggestions. Contact a few attorneys that deal with truckers. Consultations are free. You will get a better idea of your options are. I would recommend that you know exactly what your situation is with USA before you start any serious discusion with a recruiter or truck owner...

Brought passports from Reno, Nevada to Long Beach, California to a couple that had forgotten to bring them for their cruise that left a few hours after we delivered them. We figured it cost them approx. $1,400. They were very happy to get the passports.

No joke! Clerks were constantly informing truckers that the tow trucks are getting ready to tow! We are still in Houston but now at the J on I -10 E. Beautiful sunny day and incredible orange sunset this evening. Hope to get a job tomorrow....

Greetings! We are in Houston, Tx at the Flying J on I 45 N. Thankful to be away from all the storms brewing up north! Mark & Linda

The enlarged photo shows how adorable she is! I think dog kisses are heavenly....! I'm very happy for you both!
