I would first invest in a smartphone and a copy machine then proceed to rent a self storage space with electricty, if electricity was unable to be obtained the bullet would have to be bitten and a generator would be purchased. I would then take the roughly 99 thousand left over, place it in the...

Oh yeah! I remember now. https://www.expeditersonline.com/forum/general-expediter-forum/59311-did-they-think-about-scenario.html The only reason I'm bringing this back up is to illustrate that regardless of opinions on the situation this is a real world problem that the new rules are causing.

Where have I heard this before? :rolleyes:

Free headaches, stress lines, and chest pains.

I think this is great advice. I didnt even think about this. I have one truck under my authority and I can do anything that I please with it. If I want to put hay on it Monday and then take steel to a job that I bid to build a building on Tuesday, then on Wednesday haul oil field freight for one...

It's pretty much a full time endeavor to make anything at it and I don't believe a carrier would approve of the mixed interest in two businesses insurance needs. " Your worker just nailed my sink to the wrong wall and broke a water line, Im calling the name FedEx on ur van and giving them your...

There were 31 trucks in dallas over the weekend. I sent my trucks to west memphis.

I come from a distant land of " Hopes " and " Dreams " err......... something like that I think.

Many here have brought up multiple valid points on this topic in regards to most importantly safety, and also, challenges that the new hours of service place on daily operations. Myself being involved in a multiple truck operation as I am certian many here can relate to, day by day the phone...

Here is a twist on the two periods of 1am to 5am requirement that I wonder if the liberal powers from above that hold an everlasting understanding of all that is good, right, and wholesome, have thought about so that I may serve as an upstanding and everlasting tax supply for all those in need...

I Agree. ;)

Thank You, I gave that paragraph thing a whirl in a edit. :o My wife is the grammar person, I am more of a numbers guy.

Well this topic lit my match so I finally just made a user name and jumped in the water. I've been reading E.O. for 3 years but this is my first post. My take on a carrier is about like the government, I really have no desire to get all warm and fuzzy in regards to one and I am not a team...
