<p>[QUOTE="Short Fuse EOD, post: 11910480, member: 168110"]FSC is for contract rates. In order that you don’t have to renegotiate every time fuel prices change. Spot market “brokers” are negotiated rates. Your rate most likely changes for each “ala Cart” load acceptance. Sometimes you will see then put down fsc on paperwork but it usually is what you asked more than they offered or they just add one in there with out really being a fsc. If you were an O/O how do you not know this?? Your boss is most likely being truthful, since yes van and Reefer rates “nationally” went down when fuel went up one the last months. Landline now by OOIDA or DAT podcasts for further explanation on what going on right now. Other posters here that own a trucking company have already rogered and explained. The ones that are cheerleading I highly doubt they run a trucking company. I wouldn’t bad mouth your boss. He is more than likely having a rough time, possibly hardest time in trucking.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
