    Dennis got into it with his hammock and ended up looking like the mascot for the former logo of my fair city. .

    C.R Robinson

    Do you mean C.H. Robinson the 3PL? I am leased to Panther with a van and have done many loads for C.H. Robinson but always booked through Panther.

    Management is not only mandated by the company(corporation), but even more so by the shareholders to pull a specific number for revenue. It all boils down to profit and return on investment. I believe some parallels exist between Con-Way selling off their expedite unit 5 years ago and FedEx...

    The Sinking Of The Titantic - FDCC

    Waiting for that first load (ever)

    Since I have become an effluent (Ragman, please don't fix this for me) expediter. I am able to afford an aircard which has contributed to my effluency (again, please don't fix). I do miss the challenge of finding free wifi offered by hotels, restaurants, apartment complexes and even some...

    I would like to see 144" of floor space, 150"-160" wheelbase, a 6 speed transmission and a 10,000 GVWR. Oh, and a bud vase holder incorporated into the dashboard.

    Nobody knows for sure. He may have gotten lost and at this very moment is on a beautiful South Pacific Island or in another dimension cavorting with this woman. .

    U-Drift

    After doing U-Drift I think you will find the ATA Truck Driving Championship a bit dull. Top speed is about 5 mph and your tires will barely get warm.

    Debris Removal Charge?? Permission From Dispatch??

    Walcott Iowa (Pork Cuttlets)

    High tide in Sioux City should be bringing some pork cutlets on the hoof your way very soon. Throw out the grappling hook and reel in dinner.
