In some circles yes, and some I would say no. Bad practices by some of the industry doesn't mean it is a practice that all should follow.

I would say based on what is posted the people at the higher "daily number" wouldn't be working much. Why would they if you have people that as posted, will do a daily rate of $50.00 for the same load or same time period. Who is kidding who? In a nutshell....this is "who will haul this load...

Pick your poison. Either look weak or look like total idiots. That is what happens when you "lead from behind" or do "apology tours".

I think what you have to get past is whether it is Obama or someone else, you still have the same problems. Whether it is democrat or republican, it is illegal without Congessional approval. Obama knows that, that is why the big pause to ask Congress if it was ok. :rolleyes: It really is that...

Wrong......he doesn't have authority for limited strikes unless we are attacked or in danger. Neither exists. He will not get approval based on the most recent numbers out of Congress. In fact....he isn't even close. If he proceeds without Congressional approval, he should be impeached. That...

I can't stop laughing. In one breath he will pay $1000 a day and in another his new people that he screws over get $50 a day because that is what they ask for. Yep...my BS meter pegged awhile ago. 3.50 a mile for a van load from AL to NJ.:rolleyes: Not even on your best day.

Ok...simple. First, He never should have brought up the "crossing the red line".Mistake Second, he keeps saying he alone can go to war there when he needs the approval of Congress. Mistake Third, he is threatening to launch an attack on a sovereign nation.Mistake And.....I could go on. This...

I think you are talking about Putin. In the current negotiations, Obama isn't even involved. Kerry is there but Putin is directing what Syria will or won't do.

I believe what you are wanting or describing is socialism.

That is true with the current batch that is there. Of course that will change as it always does. Will it make a difference? Maybe maybe not. One thing for certain, if we do nothing, then that would be the guaranteed result.

That is true. That is why in most places, public transportation is being cut back. Just too expensive to operate. Most towns are running in the red now. It is one of the first things that will take a hit. Actually, it is already happening.

I think you are looking for a perfect utopia that doesn't exist. It doesn't matter whether union workers are incompetent or lazy. The economics aren't there. Just as we seen with Walmart, raise the minimum wage to 12.50 and they decided not to build five stores in DC. So.....if you raise the...

With the way the court system works the truck driver is wrong. Why? Because he/she was there. Rest of it matters little.

Everyone should be able to exercise their rights regardless of a disability. I guess "duck" goes without saying.

Especially the first two.:p

Choose wisely.:cool:

I don't really know what a van averages at Panther. I will defer that to someone who runs a van but a $500 a day average would be a tough sell consistently for any carrier as far as I know doing a van. If not.....everyone would be there would they not? I follow enough freight/3PL sites...

If he can't put a number out there he is basically a gamer.

Ok what is the daily rate? I'll ask for arguments sake, 500 a day. Am I good to go since I asked?

Bingo. There is no way I would recommend someone run that way as a independent contractor. Have to agree with Xiggi if someone can't say what they pay, well........there is usually a reason. And usually not to the contractors benefit.
