omg Not meaning to pile on, but my board position does look funny. I'm sitting just outside St. Louis, and I'm on the Chicago board. eb

I just gave panther my notice. I think I'm leaving on a positive note. No bridges to burn. Best of everything to all my panther cousins. I'll be hauling and installing art for a company that does that sort of thing. I'll still be part of the eo forum and will still be trying to make it to...

I have over 4800 miles the last two weeks. By far my best run since signing on with panther. By the looks of the pro bill numbers, others must be moving pretty well too. What a week. Loaded miles, my long awaited company newsletter was published, noticeable progress on boards, and now a...

This is one of the things I've been waiting for if they can stay on top of it. eb

Barnhart, TX I just did the Barnhart, TX thing. It isn't even in the index of the motor carriers atlas. It's on the map, but no reference in the index, so try finding it on the map. Once I did find it on the map, I knew I wasn't going to Barnhart. I thought I'd scout out the board and headed...

No it's not a space as in a line to enter information. I just squeeze it in at that point, so everything is in one place. I try to keep anything related to the load on the one form taking care to not make anything too messy that will interfere with the billing folks. If need be two months...

Pelicn, I even write down my pick up and delivery appointment times in the space below where the form is preprinted: P/U DATE, and DELV. DATE. This way when me and a shipper might be trying to "figure something out" I point to the times and say, "My dispatch says this is when I'm supposed to...

I think I already sort of do this. I have three copies of my pro form. Company no longer wants the original so I keep that. Consignee gets the back copy. And if for some reason the shipper wants a copy, I give them the middle copy that I usually end up throwing away. I typically have the...

I couldn't find it in the manual. Much of the things in the manual I have are just powerpoint briefing slides that only outline what might have been covered in orientation. I regularly complain about the lack of written policy, so I'll just leave it at that. eb

Is this 8/24 hour advance policy written anywhere?

A breakout like this also helps people shopping for a company. Running searches on company topics won't consolidate company specific discussions quite like having a dedicated forum. eb

okay, I'm using it now too. eb
