Bah, some of you came here thinking I wrote this? HAH! No, YOU are going to write it (I hope). Maybe it's a great thread and gets stickied.
In the other thread Greg mentioned running from BFE SD to Chi at just above cost. I got the impression he thought that was bad. Seems it would be good to me, like a paid relocate. And if I end up ANYWHERE in the Dakota's it was only because the money was outstanding and covered the deadhead back to civilization.
So what are the things you experienced expediters consider when the phone rings and dispatch is on the other end with a run? What is 'running smart'?
