Mercer Lease vs Mercer Brokerage

It does cost money to jump ship. But if Mercer is as bad as he say's it is. He would have been money ahead to jump ship months ago. I assume he is waiting until March when the tags expire.
After all he's much smarter than we are.

 

Who knows some drivers are truck stop junkies then when they not making any money they want to blame the company

 

When I have not been happy my "exit strategy" has always been 1. I go home 2. wait until last trip is paid 3. quit

 

What happened to 4 u still here

 

Should have put sarcastic quote at end!

 

So, on the one hand they have no van freight but on the other hand the vast majority is van freight. Did I get that right?

Some people will die of thirst while floating in a lake.

Nevermind the koolaid some are straight up scotch but, either way, everybody will obviously go broke. Just thought, maybe it's not the system but another component?

I switched from van to flatbed better choice

 

I talked to a guy doing van at the fuel island at the J here in town a few days ago.
He had an almost new 386. Nice truck.
Said he made about $1.00/mile after all operating costs.
He's the first guy I've spoken to that I actually saw with a van.
Plethora of you flats out this way, very few vans.
He said the van is steady.
I only do van.
I considered Mercer but was concerned on the freight availability.
He made me feel better.
LandStar has that webinar where you can see their actual board, and there are a bazillion vans, so I know they have van freight.

If they really did pull that guys load and give it away, that is F/U though.

 

Exactly. Tells ya a whole lot about how a guy runs his business if he is "stuck" at the company he is leased to.

I've said before it really sounds like he doesn't own the truck. He drives for a contractor. Or isn't even with mercer.
