    I thought that was someone else, you too? I haven't lost anything from all this . It just hasn't had me at any point where I was dead in the water and caused me to lose any revenue. I wonder how many others have lost thousands of dollars? When I encountered these bumps I adapted and used whatever resources were available, whether it was calling agents, working with coordinator more, etc. I honestly can't say I actually lost any revenue with any problems.

    That's also the first time I have heard or saw that from you . In last conversation on phone you only mentioned others had lost thousands of revenue.

    I wonder how that loss is determined .

    I wonder how many others have suffered these huge monetary losses, it would seem it. Would have caused a great many to lose those amounts also.

    Even allowed for the uptick I am far ahead of last year's pace,

    Without trying to stir the pot, despite unwillingly taking the month of March off for engine failure, I'm pretty sure I'm ahead of last year as well. At worst, I'm on pace with last year

    No #### calling agents, I never thought of that! How does that work exactly, do I use a phone, a rotary one, or is my cell ok? The point is it's a inconvenience, and how many loads did I miss while I'm dialing agents? How about Mercer come up with the same plan they have coordinators for snow days, or days the network goes down? You say there is roughly 100 people between both boards, give us the same access they gave coordinators, pretty simple concept and we know it works!
     
    CJndaTruck and spyder7723 Thank this.

    How many winches do most of you carry on your trailer? They come with 6 per side. How many additional do you recommend me getting?

    Ok, double checked, I'm $4k ahead of last year despite taking almost all of March off unwillingly this year.

    . Stating a fact isn't stirring the pot. It is what is.

    I put plenty of effort into not only starting, but maintaining my business! You'll understand that when your on the hook!! So please don't preach to me about effort, it doesn't go over well coming from some who put zero effort into starting "their business"!
