Some loads are gonna be bad. That's just how expediting is. And now, with the rates coming down because of competition, you won't see the really high paying loads like you used to with Landstar (Ranger?) or FedEx. He'll get some short runs, but he'll also get some long ones.

Maybe he's Russian-Italian.

Now I'm hungry. I'll have a medium pizza and a side salad with Russian dressing.

I know a girl who speaks 9 languages fluently, but writing or typing most of them is quite another thing. We have people right here in this forum who were born and raised in this country, been speaking English all their lives, some were in the military, and have a tough time posting a readable, coherent message.

An English teacher would rip your own quote right up there to shreds, actually. :D

you were with fed ex ground,much different than fed ex custom critical,now i understand,24000 dollars at fed ex ground takes to many miles,all you do is wear your truck out.if the driver you have needs more home time,expedite is not a good way to go,especially running solo.if running solo,he needs to never turn a run down,cause they will not be useing a solo much

So he sat for 6 days but was offered a load not a very good load because of the dh but a load none the less. That load depending on where it was going may have got him in place for a great load. Bottom line when in Seville on the day after a class gets out you take what ever they offer to get out of the area. Send me a private message with your husbands name and phone number and i will try to help him out. I am a solo tractor driver and may be able to offer him some insight.

Well i don't know about fedex as i havent ever driven for them but here i run more than enough miles. Sure i have weeks that suck but over all i am a happy camper. Just did my figures for last year $2.64 per LOADED miles $2.05 per mile for total miles. Now if you cant make money with those rates well then you need a walmart job. Because trucking isnt for you<< the word you isnt person specific. And i turn down my share of loads
