We have found in the summer that we can not live with out our table top fan. We spent some amount of time in a Wal-Mart studying the fan isle. They make your selection really pretty easy as they have so many fans running you can really check them out. We segragated each fan and tried it and...

We thought it was going to be in Fort Worth TX with snow and rain showers but now it will be in sunny Harlingen TX.

Broom!! You cleaned toilets and we mowed yards! We had a very successful mom and pop lawn care business and that was a money maker. Hard work does pay because that is how we had our very large down payment. As a first time truck buyer you need the large down payment to get most truck...

Our goal when we bought our truck where to pay off Daimler Chrysler off as soon as possible. Now that we have that done and no longer are paying any interest and only gaining interest it is unbelievable how quick you can build your savings. Our plans now are to run our truck as long as...

Leo! You had the same reaction we did and I hate to say this but so far he has saved us almost 15,000 dollars for this year. I have talked with his son Johnny and also John I believe they run a top notch operation. I also believe they will work with you on what ever level you are comfortable...

I am not a huge hard boiled egg fan!! What I would do though was peel them and then as I was driving I would eat them for breakfast. That seemed to work well and they last what seems like indefinitely. How colorful and cheerful would a bunch of colored eggs be!! Fun The chicken worked out...

McBride's I have sometimes felt that a mailbox and also a nice potted plant would be a good thing to carry in the truck for these situations. Wouldn't that be a nice picture? Sometimes you just have to laugh and start another day!

Yep still sitting here sent you a PM.

First you must acquire the correct license for the vehicle you are planning on driving. With FedEx you will then have to take a drive test with an approved instructor.

JIM you are always in Texas! Great state and if we could get a load out of here going that way we stop by and see you.

Bored in Orlando Fl and it is hot!!

Greg you have that one right. How many times have you talked to new drivers that have no experience but are White Glove? How many times have you talked to Owner Operators trying to get into White Glove after being here a year or more and they have to jump through hoops and wait for an opening...

My first thoughts where why not go dutch treat and talk as fellow truck drivers. One thing that is great about this profession is we are all equals and we all receive the same pay. We have learned many many things by sharing a meal with a fellow expediter or even with the big truck drivers.

Thanks for the great info I now have that number on Speed Dial. Dave will solve all problems.

Phil, in Express where the freight is and where the express center is are two different things. Once again you have to be within the Express Center to be looked at for dispatch, if you are sitting on the freight you still can and most often will be over looked at you are in a dead head status...

My previous post was as an Express truck which I believe McBride's are and this had nothing to do with a White Glove truck. When you in Express you need to remember that White Glove and Express have totally separate dispatchers and separate ways of doing business.
