-

Keep us updated on your progress. We will help if we can. Most of us, anyway. LOL.
Mr.Shwaginz Thanks this. -
If the op knew anything about loads. He'd realize he's griping for nothing.

I have to tell you that they give money to these companies to make money, it isn't a problem if they are making money. However the problem is when they don't make money while getting loads, so 10% is about right for the amount of work that has to be done.
Maybe you should look into being a broker for them, legally you can't until you hit 21 (I think because of the bond) so it is something you may look into. -
I am not becoming a #### Broker . The way Bulgarian truck dispatch companies work is simple. They find loads from various websites and make a path for the Bulgarian Truck owner operators. If persay they find a good load that has a rate of about 4$ per mile for lets say 1000 miles the companies can easily take 1000$ or even more just because they know the Truck driver will still take a load for 2.50 per mile. Thats how they really make money because they don't have to show how much the initial load rate. So overall they make over 30-50k from one Bulgarian Truck Operator just for not being able to speak english. This is how things go under the table . Overall since i am Bulgarian and my grandpa knows almost every Bulgarian truck driver in IL i should have no problem getting 5 if not even more people to work with me. I don't see the point of becoming a broker money wise it really makes no sense. I have to go and get a ####ty bachelors degree which will probably cost me 100k+ and 4 years of my life as well. But I'm here trying to help some Bulgarians out and make a few bucks while at it but u smack me with the ####ty 6am-3pm job that will make me hate my life. Y u do this sir y

Lol. I wish i knew everything at 16.
snowwy and Mr.Shwaginz Thank this. -
So you'll help the Bulgarians and Bulgarians only? It sounds to me like an exclusivity game. That's bigotry.
I can't begin to figure out how to tell you how much you don't know. But I don't think you know enough. Not nearly enough.
In a couple of years get yourself a driving job and learn the business and how the business really works.
In the meantime...you're 16 years old for pete's sake! Get a girlfriend. Or two. Buy a car. Party. Go to college even if you don't think it will do you any good. You might surprise yourself.
And quit arguing with the grownups, okay?Mudguppy Thanks this. -
To help Bulgarians, go back to your country, become a politician and make people want to stay in their own country and not immigrate.
Since that wouldn't happen, listen to old men. Go get a bachelor degree while you can.
You can always become a trucking dispatcher, but you can't always become an engineer.KANSAS TRANSIT and dngrous_dime Thank this.
