Landstar

Specifically in the hazmat, military, and OD departments.

 

OZR corp Vp's and agents try to cut in on my freight daily! A customer of mine had a bid packet with over 4000 lanes. Landstar sent it to FOUR agents to bid on against each other. I was awarded the business, to find out corporate had given it to other agents. I put a lot of time and money into that business for them to take it away. Do not thiink it does not happen because it does.

 

Trust me, I know what you mean. Landstar isn't what it used to be, but it's still a great place to be.

 

Are you only allowed to give your loads to LS BCO's and approved carriers or can you broker out as well?

 

We can broker loads out to our approved carriers.

 

unless your in the truck and actually runnin....... sitting behind a desk ain't cutting it you have no clue or idea what is really going on in the real world ,i don't care who you are thats the problem today we have too many yahoos sitting at these desks that don't know a thing about trucking.nothing personal just stating a fact

 

Maybe you mis-read something I posted, because I never claimed to be the end all be all of trucking knowledge? And though I may sit at a desk, there's enough experience in our offices from the driving side just as much as the office side to help me with just about any question I have.

 

Where did that come from...lol

 

Unless you're in the office hustling to move loads.....sitting behind a wheel ain't cutting it. You have no idea what is really going on in the real world. I don't care who you are. That's the problem today. We have to many yahoos sitting behind these wheels that don't know a thing about trucking. Nothing personal, just stating a fact.

Works both ways in the "real world". Best of luck to you in your world.

 

like i said nothing personal !
