Fair assessment, IMO. It is VERY difficult for dispatchers that usually get $2.00-$2.65 for a straight to even think that same truck is only worth$1.40-$1.60 to a fellow broker. BUT.....these are the SAME guys that will PROUDLY contract a bid for a straight for $1.50 per mile. And then they...

Bonus, drops 126 miles from home. Although I need to run into Friday this week. Well, every week for that matter.

Pacific Financial? Something like $3600-$4500? Don't recall. We had, but let it go when $75k came along. Two of our customers used to use us to broker a lot. But their need went away.

Load un-cancelled. Got the dry run plus the load.

Hate it when that happens!!

It's a risk everywhere this month.

Says the man that has spades of experience hauling Harleys around the country. Makes sense.

I would have offered if the guy understood the words coming out of my mouth. It took 10 minutes to figure out what he did. And yes, some of my loads are snagging en route LTL from hubs that is hotter than LTL service.

Dry run. :( Shipper sent LTL by accident.

Cool. I think that pick, actually on Meridian, was 55 mins from my house.

Only took one out of there for me yesterday. Over off of Allen Rd in West Chester.

Ah, no. That wasn't it.

Dang. Ok, next time. If you're picking in MKE we'll pass each other. Be safe.

When are you leaving Pilot??

Probably one of the ones we were bidding on. LOL!!

Heading down. Hoping our guy is rolling out booked in the next few mins. UPDATE - Woohoo!! He's booked!! He doesn't even know it yet!! LOL!!

Nope. 12-15 (ok maybe 5-6 or 7) bids later he's STILL sitting. NICE TRY THERE, THOUGH. He will be the first between ME or him. Unless he doesn't want the load we get first.

Quoting my dainty little wife. LOL!! "Sh*t is going nasty crack ***** cheap!! Like aids infested nasty crack ***** cheap!!"

If you are a contractor the MUST allow you to do so. Not doing so would be them exercising "employer control" over you. That term is not taken lightly and the Feds LOVE busting carriers that are treating their contractors as employees. The fines are stiff and the threat is huge and expensive...

If I had a dollar for every time I got excited about a really high $ award...... Then looked at the map AGAIN and got all deflated.
