As i have often say there is not one company for everyone... and any company can change as well as a contractors needs can change and it is time to move in a different direction.

Awesome Greg when our business plan does not work with FedEx's business plan it would be time to move on. That would not make the company a bad company.

This is a perfect example of why listening to one irritated contractor does not make a companies policy...

So are you thinking this is something new? Many trucks do not have the speed limiter and many do not go to Canada.

Jack is a WG reefer been with FedEx many years from a surface to WG truck.

Nope this is not a half way deal it is a total are nothing. The boom sticking up in the air above a persons head is the first clue...

Well I as well look like a dork as I am not going to hang up when talking with someone and put on my ear bud. I am also reluctant to spend the money on another ear bud headset and not be able to hear or have people not hear me. We are using the Siverado (I think that is the name) right now...

Greg I have heard of people doing exactly what you describe. Turn down a load over FCS when the load pays more than enough to pay for fuel. I find it much easier to update my cost to run per mile as fuel prices change than to break it out.

No the bottom line is what does the load pay and what are the miles. Fuel is included in my expenses for what we need per mile to run.

Thank you OVM as a fellow moderator for being so quick to throw my under the bus with out knowing any facts. I see that Joe was quick to follow suit and seemed to have forgotten that we are in a dry box. We were surface and had been on the WG list for years and when Molly passed away we were...

The truck needs to be weighed with personal and cargo related gear, full tanks and two drivers on a scale, that weight subtracted from GVWR will indicate the capacity. When he brings that scale ticket to orientation, they will use the capacity as his available weight in the computer unless he...

What is the truck registered to carry? A heavier load may be placed on a D, C, or B vehicle if they are registered to carry more weight. If your truck is legal to carry more weight you can call in and have this changed by your CC. It can help you to get loads at times. This is the...

I am a little slow learning the convection oven as I have such a habit of getting out my rice cooker! Someone gave me the tip of using parchment paper on the pan in the bottom to catch drippings if I use the grill which works very nice as I did grill a couple turkey breasts. (I found I could...

The Rice Cooker does MUCH more that cool rice. I have had the same Rice Cooker for 5 years and it gets drug out of the cabinet almost everyday to be used. I have cooked steamed rice in it maybe twice... Once with disastrous results to much rice and not enough water. I now know the meaning of...

Has anyone tried the Bose Bluetooth Headset? I know of one truck driver using the headset for the past two months and he is still thrilled with it. He is able to use the head set in the truck while driving and also get out of the truck and not look like a total dork. I would like to use the...

That is on at a horrible time I slept through it as well. Sounds like you guys all did an awesome job. Thanks Maniac for letting everyone know. See you at the Expo!

I wish you luck at LEA we know a few couples over there in dry boxes who are doing very well and really like the system.

You can buy cheap headsets and buy several a year or buy a good headset such as the Blue Parror that will last several years

We have the loads that come in the middle of thenight with an ASAP pickup pay really well. The office does not recognize time zones and offer loads first thing in the morning to trucks in California which is frustrating.
