Guido is filling in for now?

I'll send you a pm. For the most part though, as a driver, you'll get a better rate per mile in the straight truck and more miles too. Thats why I say "if your looking for work". Some people are retired and just want to travel the country. The van is all they need and the income is secondary. If...

If your needing work, be sure to tell them everything you just posted here (whatever company your looking at). You probably have a good shot of getting in a decent straight truck gig. Your best money will be in the straight.

I see. Its worth a shot. What experience do you have? If your able to drive a straight, the options for a ride and the money are both better.

Im not sure that LoadOne is taking on any vans at the moment. Im pretty sure that a regular van is a no go for sure. Is this a sprinter van or regular cargo van?

One of the biggest advantages I see at Load One is the availability of shipper direct freight. As a percentage based carrier, John is sharing that shipper direct tarriff. Many of the flat rate carriers, even those with large shipper direct freight bases, tend to pay a flat rate equal to that of...

The 75% sounds good...as long as you make sure that your not responsible for any expenses associated with the vehicle (insurance, tires, repairs, etc). I know nothing about the company. Is there a possibility that he would let you take the van to a different company if your research finds Jung...

Set up right, there is more personal space in a van than a straight truck...in my opinion. Jenny could offer the best advice on that. She and Nick were teaming in a van and are now in a straight truck. She could give a good comparison.

Just downloaded it. Ive been looking for something besides the android tone. I need something capable of waking me up since it seems Im always sound asleep when dispatch calls...lol.The app I used had western theme songs. The Lone Ranger is a good one too. It must work! Got a load immediately...

I have told many people that I do this for the freedom. I enjoy the fact that I can choose when I take a day off and where. I like that when I do go home, I can stay as long as I want and can afford. I don't control everything about my business, but I control what I want to and the company I'm...

Well....hello Doug....how the heck are ya? :D

May I ask who your rants are directed at today? :)

Has Nula decided yet whether or not she's bringing you back?

Cant believe I havent got of Battle Creek today. .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... HEY....it worked for Guido! :D

I didn't understand any of it :D But...I was able to watch the race yesterday with just a few clicks on my phone. I learned fairly quick to not touch the screen once I had the race playing. I wanted to make the video full screen, but touching anything would pull up another window. At one point I...

huh?........:confused:

Just curious...is anyone able to watch the safety videos and take the test from their smart phones? Is there an app that would make it work? Is there a system change that could make it possible? It would make it a LOT easier on me if I could watch them on the phone. It would likely increase...

I would check out the EO classifieds. I would also talk to as many current drivers as possible. There are some outright horror stories out here. He needs to get with a good owner and a good company....they will most often be found in the same place.

Those new shower heads have a paint stripper setting! I'm thinkin the manager was more concerned about the "I DID IT" part?

We should re-title this thread to something like this: Discussion and opinions on how to, and excuses for, avoiding responsibilities.
