    The burger flipper will usually get paid. Regardless of number of burgers flipped. No zero paydays. You should have gone to the John Clark School of Successful Taxi Driving instead of going to see the movie TAXI DRIVER

    When an owner hires a stone cold rookie he ought to understand what he's getting. How often does the rookie fully understand what he's getting into ?

    The newbie would be ahead if he got a prevailing wage from day one. A good guarantee that he really didn't cover. I once had an owner told me he had a team whose purpose to go into a truck was more to have a place to live than to work. Other than Unicorn Cartidge, have you seen many owners up...

    John, sadly EO has deteriorated some over the last few years. There's actually a thread running by Bruno, Where's Everybody At, or similar, that discusses this issue. What you're talking about may be able to help re-energize the EO brand. The talent is here. There's lots of good recently...

    I thought someone asked if you checked the oil level after your swim but before it blew. I don't remember you answering..... It's a Moot point now.

    That is not like John at all. At least not back last year when I had a truck. Any chance he was busy at the time and the girl thought you needed answers before he'd be available ?

    Hey, as a lady of the night once told me, two John's are better than one.

    Geo, I don't argue that you made money in the past. Just stating you wouldn't get out of bed for under $1.75 per mile confuses newbies. I imagine if you took all your Ceva Income devided by all your miles it may be a shocking figure. It's not good to throw out good numbers unless you're...

    John,Agreed. We need someone with time, knowledge, and contacts to bring it all together. Also, could a handicap system be put together to rank the top 50 or 100 carriers ? A rookie shouldn't have to look at too many options.

    I totally agree with you. You can't talk regulation because you thrive in a lack of regulation. The problem with your thoughts is if someone legit doesn't get it going, soon, someone with the wrong intentions may start a for profit mentoring program that will only benefit the wrong people.

    We'll, there's your calling. These newbies need a place to turn. They start out, before they should, and have nobody to turn to. As often as there is good advice on EO, there is bad advice. I used to read it everyday. Sometimes, if you're not a regular, you get ignored. Or don't understand...

    WOM. Sorry to hear of your woes. Fire,smoke, didn't check oil ? If you have trouble with your claim, contact Bruno. The old timers will remember he's an expert on this issue. You said you'd take another hurricane load. If the insurance pays, you may have to fight some high mileage units for...

    Remember, he's with CRE. Not that big of a chunk out of a month's pay.

    I just read the first post again. If he's an o/o already, shouldn't he know the answer to his own question ? Another cart before the horse ?

    I think he's only banned from posting pictures of THOSE shorts. Something about obscenity laws ?
