    Carriers and Group 401k

    After reading this thread and some other ones, i'm kinda wondering if someone wants all these grand things, and has as large a resume of background and experience in this business as stated, then why, don't they just go do their own thing, make oodles of money, then they would have plenty of...

    I guess it's just a nuther case of not internalizing what we read. Eh?

    Pay Rate

    What do you consider "nothing"? There is prolly a wide range of personal deffinitions for nothing. Also, there is a wide range of capabilitys within the "straight truck" category, some can't do too much others can move semi freight. What is nothing??

    Needing Advice

    Also, when considering your options, consider the fact that it seems you are accustomed to logging. I'm not sure where these folks get the idea that going extra innings in a cargo van is OK. Seems suspect to me.

    New Group On EO

    Well, there may be a bit of a silver lining going on here. Just read that our "our" black leaders have stated there is "no reason to force obama to pick people that look like him for impotant positions". Seems he won't be required to employ folks that can't git r done. They say he should only...

    Oil continues it decline

    Yes and, with the loss of jobs and availabel loads, don't matter what it gets down to. If you can't afford to buy it. Makes little difference if it gits to a buck a gallon, if ya only got seventy five cent. I am curious to observe how all this'll affect the don't wanna attitude.

    Iraq Trucking Jobs

    There is waaayyy too many "don't wannas" reading this to get much feedback i'm afeared. Not too many of em want that much excitement in their life. Most wanna choose their cargo and destination. Besides there thay'd have too much company for their percieved "free spirit". Having typed...

    Some new drivers

    Ahh, I dunno bout that. The only continent I haven't set foot on is Antartica. Been to all the States AND Provinces with my Expedite business, and, have nothing but time for "fun and games" 24/7 these days. I tink all that is because I didn't take time for "fun and games" when I shouldn't...

    Help new fleet owner

    yepper. Kinda like going from a trooper to really super trooper. It's amazing how you view things depending on what hat you are wearing that day. I certainly would enjoy watching more folks negotiating the "real" roast goose hunt and observing their evolution.

    Industrys failing

    Ahh Tude, don't worry bout how they treat ya on this site. If they ban you it'd be their loss. I got a nasty gram recently for a comment about paychecks. The recipient translated that as my calling her a "money hungry :censoredsign:". I guess it's all in your translation. Ya know douche versus...

    That's precisely the reason I have "cranked" on those clowns so much over the years. But, they don't wanna look in the mirror. Jes like ovm types, "batter up". guess we can suggest to them where the water is---- but---, you know the rest of the story. In hindsight, I shoulda not typed...

    Need to assess the level of abuse we just endured!!

    Really? That's an interesting attitude. I'm wondering how common is that train of figgure'in. Lets read it.

    Last two weeks

    I'll agree Lawrence. It's way too bad it has come to the point that we thank folks for using equipment from manufacturers you mentioned. However, myself, like the folks that bought from them, I actually enjoyed delivering their needed items, and avoided the UAW broken companys like the plague...

    Lift Axle????

    I wouldn't mess with a "used" lift axle. You just don't know how they have been used (abused). Saving a couple hundred bucks me tink, might cost dearly in installation and safety costs.
