    You can’t control brokers?
    You ever heard of the word “no”?

    Wait, last week there was a thread about $5 a mile and getting all you can get from a broker but now if the broker keeps a little extra they’re a thief? I’m confused now.

    $5 was a metaphor. A justfied wish rate, if you will.
    It never really existed.

    Anyway... I do believe rates should reflect certain seriousness of the situation.
    Even if it is supply and demand it still should show better rates for going into places like Brooklyn, NY.
    Well it does not. The market don't care.
    Does it take inviting a broker/shipper to a dinner, per Rutherford's advice, to convince them that it is us who visit the potentially contaminated places, where many strangers come and go?
    Or is it still too many desperados out there who are ignoring or denying the hazard? Blame it on the market thing. Probably the latter.

    I am sorry for hijacking the thread. I neither agree nor disagree with the OPs thought. That's been on my mind lately too. I shall leave now.

    Sir. With all due respect, you will not dare to say a 49 year old Pole what pierogies are!
    Lol.
