Huh, strange. That's what this guy was saying, and then I've had some that do nothing but file whatever you give them. Then, there's Landstar... I guess it's all the government contracting they do.

I talked to a former Load-1 guy who said they're like Landstar in that regard, calling every one of your past contacts and verifying dates.

for some reason, i'm getting the "this message is too short" error when it isn't.

Well, he did get paid, and he only moved a few miles.

I worked in the office for a company that had a "dispatcher error" account out of which drivers were paid in such circumstances. The dispatcher would sometimes intentionally create a fake run to get an annoying driver out of the office. When he was about half-way there, he'd cancel it. He said...

But what happens when they call your previous companies? All your info looks wrong now.

I find it odd that different companies have so different qualifications. I've had companies tell me it doesn't matter if I can't remember a date or two because it's only for the file. Then other companies, like Landstar, want to crawl up your colon with a flashlight and have a look around. I...

I just heard on the radio a couple days ago, Illinois is saying that their system was only meant to compel people to not ignore a summons and show up for court. It's been abused and now they're implementing reforms, one of which is to ensure that you can't be cuffed and stuffed unless it's been...

It's more precise to say "traditional liberals" or "classical liberals." Much like conservatives, the definition has morphed into almost the opposite. Most people don't know that classical liberalism was essentially libertarianism.

Actually, it was, but not in the druggie sense. Death-related. Fortunately, we have electronic communications nowadays.

Did I mention it needs bold, underline, & italics controls? I mean buttons; doing this stuff [ ] [/] is a pain on a virtual keyboard.

I think the killing will start sooner.

Social security is a Ponzi scheme that must be abolished. But at the very least, those that do receive it in the meantime can't receive interest. The funds don't exist anywhere at any one time. They're disbursed immediately, and even of they weren't, the government isn't allowed to invest it...

Another take on the peace officer who stopped aggravated battery committed by fellow cops. Officer Regina Tasca Goes "Rogue" Regina Tasca is a “rogue cop” – and God bless her for it. Tasca is in the middle of disciplinary hearings that may result in her termination from the Bogota, New Jersey...

While I'm completely against treating contractors like employees via pretend non-forced dispatch, there is the baseball principle. Like when an outfielder lets one drop that he could've caught had he hustled, some managers bench him for the rest of the day, saying, "If you wanted a day off, you...

Even Schwarzenegger said that when he was campaigning for governator of Kal-ee-fown-ia. Everybody must be provided for, or some such bilge. When the federal money stops flowing, there'll be some confusion for a couple days, but after that, people who rely on welfare and consider it their money...

My sister on the bankruptcy thing: "That's for companies and it's not complaints,it's a motion in court. 3 Suppliers that together are owed at least $10,000 can file a motion with the court to put a company into involuntary bankruptcy. BUT if you file on someone and then it turns out they are...

Visited the mobile EO site for the first time today. That's really clean, trimmed down, easy nav, etc. Kudos. Only thing to do different is to put controls for bold, underline, & italics on the advanced compose screen.

I'll axe her. She's on a trip now, don't know when she'll be able to give details.

Ok, I'm apparently confused.I never knew of a company actually called Landshark. I thought it was an intentional mangling of the name Landstar. It was a Landstar guy... he showed me the high rates on the Landstar board...they're printing money over there at Landstar...
