    bob knows where the money is....he no Dummy...

    He has seen the Volvo population increase so much he decided..."Screw this driving BS, theres money to be made with Volvo trucks..."

    Unfortunately for Bob........when the Peterbilts,kenworths and large cars call him...He doesnt make much money and has to 'move on' to another caller...

    or, If i called Him, he'd have to hang up the phone almost immediately, The Nervous Tension that i bring out of Him will have him fidgeting at his desk.....He now keeps a Glass of Cold Water, A bottle of Pepto-Bismol and a bottle of Advil by his side..... I make Him very uncomfortable booking freight.

    Considering that I rolled in a W9 with a stainless spread reefer, it's kinda tough to make me nervous... LOL and yes I know where the money is.

    You guys are funny with your Euro comments. Be careful of lumping everyone in particular groups into a nice little box. I know in Bowling Green, KY of a Euro outfit that moved in there several years ago and the brokers with that local area freight will tell you those guys don't F around and are very aggressive with rates when it's that time.

    Thats EXACTLY what is needed in this biz coal.........
    We have a few shameless euro's up here by me that at least "try" to stand their ground, I give em credit,

    Of Course I still look at their feet to see what they are wearing when I speak to them face to face.
