Anne is a definite assest to EO. She will give you the facts with no BS and work with you. Also she is a good and decent person.

Hey Leo, you are coming close to the line where the politically correct among us will accuse you of having racist views.

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening The opinions of the author of this thread shouldn't concern you very much. Many of us remember back in 1995 when things really slowed up, but only for a few months. Company's actually turned to expediting so that they could shrink their on...

Yeah but who how are you going to find a QUALIFED team to work for one month or two plus when you are out shooting down ducks they may have problems and need assistance.

I have been a one truck owner and have been incorporated since 1994. There are many tax advantages to being a S Corp or LLC. What I have found is that when you start talking about being a corporation peoples eyes tend to glaze over and they lose interest. Why?? They think your are burried in...

I guess there is a first time for every thing. I am sorry that 2 individuals took my post out of contex and decided to attack me. I have been around EO for over 8 years and up until today have never had my integrity,posts,or motives questioned. Kinda makes you wonder why??

It's real simple. The cross dock transfer places will shut down. Laredo will go to a small border town that pregnant Mexican females can use to have their baby thus making a new US citizen on ADC and whatever else they can find.

Mike I sent you a PM on this. Give me a call when you can.

I have known and worked with people that were devout followers of Islam. The folks that I have known would absolutely NEVER condone violence in the name of their religion.

RE: Any Elite drivers getting passed by for lower Tall, think back and what happened about 2 years ago. Watkins LTL came into the Fedex Family renamed Fedex National LTL. I have seen many reefer pups rebadged from Watkins to Fedex National LTL. Thats where the reefer freight has gone.

Unforunately your experience is not new. I don't know if it's a question of the recruiters having too many irons in the fire or just flat out lazy. The days of Bill McCloud,Lou Fry,Jeff Gara etc are gone. These guys and others had territories that they would cover, not sit in a building waiting...

When I was with FedexCC I used to switch all the time. I never had a problem,just make sure you notify your company.

Great defense against that powerhouse Kent State. I guss the Big 2 teams are really worried.
