A real good question there Joe. Unanswerable. But good. First off, if you are worrying about a week, i'd say your goals seem to be a bit "short term". Better do a business plan for 8 - 12 months out based on your Carrier of choice recent average for your equipment and staffing levels. After...

They be gett'in old there Jack. you know, replace your horse? I be riding one to Hawaii here pretty soon, hope I get an "experienced" one tho. Never been to wild about the new shiny anything.

Actually, ONE thirty footer HAS solved that problem in the past. No need to complicate the simple. Jes a matter of what attitude you are look'in at it from. And, i'm sure y'all are genuinely concerned if the "customer" is charged more, and, equally concerned if the Carrier has to pay "too"...

Jes way mo bettah da other way.

That is refreshing Chef. There are many more "goals" than simply running hard for a couple days and going home, or, running to buy that next great toy, or running for....... that next material thing. Many jes don't tink of it as a career. It has to be instant in their mind. Having typed...

An why, ya spose some struggle thru, and others drop out?? Let us read the sob stories.

Yep! Reads pretty "one-sided" to me there aristotle. Seems the prevailing attitude tho.

Sure that couple days extra expereince helps us ovm. A good load or two extra a month (that are hidden in the fog) make it a excellent month instead of an mediocre month. My point simply wuz, that the "line burners" diminish their opportunitys each minute of time they use of the dispatchers...

Chef, i had anticipated you were getting a fix on this business until your last post. The squeaky wheel WONT get any grease till the wheel greaser has grease to use. It's not IF it happens, but WHEN, if you are leased to someone, and have agendas such as min rate, direction, etc.

Yepper ovm!!! Bout like being a carrier.

You done good turttle!!! pj jes remember, in a lotta cases, it's contractor beware. An ALWAYS read da small print like ya did da turttles rant.

Leo, if it's about participation, ratings, MONEY for the folks involved let er ride. Believe you'all d be better off letting people "learn" about everything. That way they'd be somewhat well rounded, rather than be tunnel visioned.

Dave, obviously you don't wanna, because you have "other" burning issues. Point is, ya don't wanna for what ever reason. An that is fine with me. However, there are many (as in a bunch) as I have found, that wanna, but jes don't wanna really know how to succeed because they too have "other"...

Actually, even these days of "slow" freight, the fella that I sold to is still doing very, very well with his "two horse outfit". Many that fail hanging their own shingle, would not be a complete success under the umbrella of someone else because of their anticipation or need for instant...

Bravo Simon!!! And did you notice that the China government just arrested a nuther multi billionair? Wonder where those billions will go? We just need to change the color of our money.

That be a good one there Jazbo.

Seems like there is ALWAYS 30% that don't get the message OVM.

Seems like he is our classic "hunter" of mobettah tings. Hey, there are a lot of trucking companys out there. I spose ya could float around for the better part of a lifetime, if, ya didn't burn too many bridges. Maybe schnider folks got a raise.

I'm not sure what they be tink'in there either jb. Quite possibly if they need to make money to go sight see'in in a van, something hasn't gone too well. Or, sumpin.

Hey chappy, would that "express delivery" be with a smile and a quick wit also??
