bad brokers

The driver or O/O did not make the money on this load! A cheap skate rebroker did! He bought the load from the first broker and skimmed the crap out of the pay! This is why I haven't done any brokering of late to NOT screw a driver out what is rightfully his! These scum bag brokers doing this by pushing a few papers and a phone call or two should be shot and that's being nice! These guys should be banned from doing anything having to do with trucking! IMHO! Would be nice to know where the load started or who consigned the thing and put their company name out there so that the main broker can be found out and be blackballed and maybe an O/O can go in and work out his own deal for freight.

As I've said several times you do NOT need a license to broker your own loads from a manufacturer or produce company! You just have to be able to foot the bill untill the shipper pays their bill on whatever schedule you work out with them! If you do a good job for them you might be able to work another load and finally work yourself into a permeate deal with them which is what the "old school owners" used to do and yes some still do!

It's time to kick brokers to the ground because some of them are way to greedy for their own good and need to go broke and sit on the curb for a while!
