Empty in BRIMFIELD OH . Just a shorty to start the week out of Romeo , MI . Its Been a steady stream of rather short runs the past couple weeks . At least I'm running every day I guess .
There's a silly thing trend going on right now I don't know where they store their brains but some brokers and carrier seem to think that if you run 1200 miles it should pay less than a 200 mile load?!A long mile or a short mile cost the same amount to run
I'm guessing, somebody may know, that the number of brokers has increased in proportion to the number of vans. All seeking the Holy Grail - EZ Money. I think we know that shippers are NOT paying less to ship freight, so somewhere between the shipper and us it's getting "lost"

If you had the pay scale you have now and we're at Bolt you would be probably making better money per mile because they have so many more direct customers as opposed to what we do with three or four people between us and where the cash actually isI'm guessing, somebody may know, that the number of brokers has increased in proportion to the number of vans.

But then I would have dispatchers that only work hard for outside loads when their regular business is slow. And, almost never got a dispatch after hours or weekends.

In support of my Canadian friends theory, I just read a line in a book:. "it's not how much you make, it's how much you keep"

In support of my retirement coming soon I just cashed out all my super America reward points from Minnesota and got myself 9 hot dogs to take home! And they are ballpark franks which makes them eligible to be cut in half so juju gets to eat this week LOL
Your such a Romantic ... sharing your hotdogs with Juju ....

I'm ashamed to admit we went down to .55 for a 2500 miler to near home and we did NOT get it

You weren't going to be 55. I took almost all the rest off our end.
