Hi Expediters! I haven't been here in a long time, but it's great to see so many of you 'oldies' still here! I can't believe how long it has been! Hope things are going well for y'all! We're obviously not expediting any more.. I recently started a new biz doing bookkeeping and admin after being...

Hi again, I visited recently and wanted to ask for your feedback on something.. and then it took awhile to have the time to figure out exactly what my issue is, or how to put it into words.. and now I have it.. but when I start typing it, it turns out sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

All the conversation and comments about correct grammar and reported incidences of being approached for cash and the locations and all the infighting, OMG it's been so long! Just popped in to say HI, miss you guys! I see many/most of you are still putting up the good fight with this expediting...

I caught a little part of a piece on those eel things that are overtaking our great lakes. It showed how the eel latches onto the fish and sucks stuff out of its body. It was really alien-like. Made me sick. I'm going to be really politically incorrect and just say, keep China in China. Buy...

Has anyone heard about the issues with Chinese drywall?? I just heard about it from our insurance broker. They won't even insure drywall contractors any more for liability insurance. We are in Canada, so the problem is less prevalent here, but she said there have been numerous problems in the...

Expediters will often mention periods of time in which the industry generally slows down more than other times. Like the first quarter (ok, so that would be Jan through March); and then there is the 'summer slowdown' (assuming that would be July and August?); So that is 5 months of the year...

On individual member pages, you can see the 'likes'... and click on them.. and see a list of who 'liked', 'what'... On the PC, the list is all formatted in a column, one after another.. On the Mac, the list is indented for each 'like', with each 'like' getting narrower and narrower, and...

I don't know what to call it (screen view?) but wanted to mention that on my Mac, the widths are appearing 'off' to me. On some posts, either the poster's sentences are cut off.... (if I have the 'view' size set larger, which I do because many font sizes are too small to bother reading).. or if...

Excuse my ignorance? What is the 'Like' thing and the 'Share' thing all about? If you press 'Like', where does it go? Does it connect you somehow with Facebook? If you press 'Share', what are you sharing, and with who, and where? Argh, it's rough being technotarded :eek:

Does anyone know how to 'grab' a video from the net and either save it to a file on your computer, or post it on youtube?

Where do I go when I want to find a mobile solution? To EO! When you buy a scanner to scan documents and receipts, where does that created PDF file go? Is it possible to have the file go to a 'smartphone'? Or does it have to go to a computer/laptop? If you want to email the scanned...

I'm curious as to how many get offered tips for whatever reason. Perhaps you saved the day. Or you made it through a blizzard. Or you went above and beyond. Or the consignee asked you to perform an extra service and offered to slip you $200. Do you accept offered tips? Do you let your carrier...

I'm finding EO really slow at times, and stuttering, while other websites are fine at the same time.. indicating it isn't the internet connection. What changed recently? (I'm using safari).

Early this morning I was searching for info on stocks.. I chose a site to go to, clicked, and immediately after it seemed to load, another site came up in its place, with 'streaming porn'. And let me tell you, it was pretty graphic and not something I personally wanted to be staring at (or...

I have an honest question here, so no bashing please, just would be interested in how people see things from different perspectives. In another war in another time in another land, an army of men killed millions of innocent men, women and children because they were told to do so. They...

This is from the other side of the fence. When you are dispatched to a pickup, don't you get the information as to who the customer is, where the consignee is, what you're picking up, etc? A truck shows up at a facility which houses numerous businesses, without an appointment; driver doesn't...

This post is actually prompted by a post made by DieselDiva in a forum in which I am unable to post. Therefore, now we have another one. I had the opportunity to work for a time at a trucking company which carried different things, most of which was not expedite, although some was. Most of the...

Noticed elsewhere that congratulations are in order on the birth of the new addition to your family! Congrats, she is gorgeous! Please post some pics! Lovely name too! Such a memorable time and it goes so fast, be sure to enjoy every minute, (even the sleepless ones)! ;)

So happy bday to both you and the naked turtle :)
