They take a awful lot of money when more of it should be in your pocket.RefMata, BoostedTeg and mitmaks Thank this. -
#### people getting protective over things they don’t own or operate.
who cares if someone is bashing a broker you like. It’s like politics and people get but hurt over someone talking crap about their favorite politician. Listen neither the politician or broker needs your help to protect its reputation.
I hate many brokers too. I have never driven for LS but know that a lot of their brokers double broker.D.Tibbitt, Brettj3876, JonJon78 and 3 others Thank this. -
Maybe their good agencies cover everything with Landstar BCO's and don't post on general load board anymore. I don't knowGod prefers Diesels, D.Tibbitt, Brettj3876 and 5 others Thank this. -
TQL is the worst at posting loads in fake locations without putting the real location in the posting.
Call on one today that was 360 miles more than lane posted.

You can find loads, build relationships and etc all without having to give up 25-35%
That's a lot of money to be throwing away.
The agents there aren't going to pay huge premium to those Landstar drivers right now in this trash market when countless drivers in the market are lined now to take cheap freight.
The market is bad now.
The market is no longer pay whatever it takes it get a truck, now brokers know they can move loads for cheap. That's the market we are in and that plus giving up a huge percentage is tough.
Brokers, Landstar agents included don't have to pay much to get loads moved now unfortunately.
If you're leased to a carrier giving up a big percentage BUT they are locked into good contract freight that's a different story.
Seen a thread of USA truck guy doing well still.
