    You are mistaken greatly, im a LA agent, and when i have an option- carrier or BCO, definetly i will choose our BCO driver, this way i will have safe night, i can recieve any info about load, driver anytime i want!

    The biggest benefit of our carriers is that they can move some freight cheaper, and when my customer not able to pay what our BCO's looking for, carriers helping me greatly, but sometimes its risky, like now- our carrier should pu load at 9 am western time but he is still 110ml away:biggrin_25526:

    Yes, sure, but sometimes we are also recieveng extremley low rates from customers, struggling with them on that point, making some tricks to made load more interesting for BCO, and if its not working im trying to use carriers if customer is ok on that
    And anyway if you are doing smth you should do it good or just forget! for example if im booking some load for our bco for $300- im earning on that $4 but my labour on that is the same like on $4000 load, but it not means that service on that load will be low.

    Took care of my jury service obligation today. Now looking for something out of the So Cal region that can use a roller van. I emailed CGI and will follow up with them in the morning. Is VAM another good one to get me out to Chicago so I can get rid of this roller van trailer?

    Ain't no company driver making those numbers on 9 months and 6 hours a day. Truth be told, an o/o that knows how to use a calculator ain't making those numbers with those hours either
