Surely Moot and Frank Zappa believe in the mystical powers of the Central Scrutinizer. Visit Joe's Garage for additional info. :)

Consider attending EO University. An EO Workshop and surely the Expedite Expo in July would greatly help you. Thanks

If you do post - I would suggest that you be sure to list all important details from all sides involved - as unbiased as you possibly can. From my experience when dealing in "driver resolution", is that the driver will tell one story with some facts, dispatch or the other department involved...

jblack32; I am not aware of any companies that have lease programs or "company driver" positions for cargo vans or straight trucks. Expediter Services may have a program close to what you are looking for. Bush Leasing is a Leasing company that used to lease straight trucks, but have not...

See and read this just like the old Batman cartoons on Saturday morning when we were kids: WOW! POW! Zap!

PSP = "Past (Safety) Poster", like Terry is... :) Terry - Hope all is well.

Moot; Even being a recruiter in the past, I love that Xtranormal movie you did a couple years back. I still find it funny as heck today. Unfortunately in Expediting, like any other business, you are not guaranteed success.

Nice work Lawrence!

I'm just sittin' in my office waiting to read a post from some PTL drivers. You PTL drivers sure are a busy bunch - you never have any time to post! Thank you all for everything you do - you are appreciated.

Phil and Dave; Great points. Bottom line is most important, whether a new Owner-operator, or a start up company. Know your expenses, learn to manage them. Be a businessman first, and a driver second.

...and what about the freight that could be in an open vehicle??? Hello freight claim, bye-bye Escrow! Geez, I'm starting to sound like a safety guy. :)

Zorry; Agreed, insurances are so important. Expediters can sustain all types of injuries while performing their duties of the independent contractor. Keep in mind that most Non-trucking insurance (Bobtail) polices have no medical coverages in the event of an vehicle accidents. It is so...

Just waiting for the latest update. :) Thanks for the great job you do for us Steve. We all appreciate you.

Billy; I saw a similar thread you posted in another forum. If you feel your questions were not adequately answered in that other forum (The General Expediter, or the Newbie forum), please pm me and I will get additional info to you. Thanks,

"The legal profession only targets groups who are deserving of it, so look around and see what's going on, on the road to understand where the problems are" Does the word "Outlaw" come to mind? All posts made valid points. Greg is correct in his thinking. It is easy for a prosecuting...

The entire staff of CIS (including John - not just the ladies) is the "Cream of the Crop". I could give numerous instances that they were there for our Owner Operators and Premium Transportation Logistics. I highly recommend CIS.

Where's Chef when you need him? We could have Turtle soup with bits of Otter (Otto) meat. Have Layout Shooter bring some duck and perch. Sounds like a wild game dinner to me. :)

I've been with PTL for about 10 years now, and I really like them..... I'm getting crazy myself :)

Thanks Steve - see you tomorrow. Thanks Chef for the kind words.

Carriers Operations Office in action... a room of dispatchers talking about penguins and ice cream.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OpuuAa7gdE
