"The CEO of one particular load brokerage took a lot of heat two years ago for bragging about his companys increasing success, claiming the recession was allowing it to increase its profits because of the desperation of some trucking companies. I doubt he gave any thought to the fact that all of us in the trucking industry would also read this quote, and avoid its freight, but in his urge to boast to shareholders, he exposed what is a cold, hard truth."
Curious on what company said this?
Does Anyone Remember Who Said this?

Since we are taking the low road approach to business, isn't that what we do as O/O's?
If you don't see any value in what a broker does then don't use them. You clearly can market yourself and should have a list of great paying customers that are calling you daily to see if you have a truck available. -
And then I look at the source of the article and remember the audience. They need truckers to be on their side and what better way than to bash a broker. O/O's that have zero clue about most of the industry they are in will jump to the evil broker story. Facts don't matter. Selling ads regardless is what they are looking to do. -
