I just wish Jared would have run his marathon in 4:59 instead of in 5:13. I just know that Subway would have had a $4.59 foot long promotion if he...
Did AD just lose part of their General Motors account?? I know they had to pull 15-20 of their trailers out of the Hudson, Wi GM distribution...
99% of load board rates are flat rates. The rate includes line haul and fuel surcharge. That's just another reason to stay away from the load...
I'm gonna play the devil's advocate here, and it probably won't win me any friends... You all are acting like fuel surcharges are this rate that...
IMO, there is no choice here... go with Pepsi. Be ready to work, tho. My best friend has worked for Pepsi for a long time. He makes very good...
We use comdata fuel cards. I think it costs the drivers $1.50 or so for each non-fuel withdrawal, about the same as an ATM withdrawal. They get...

The $100,000 bond requirement is a good first step.
