    Yes, he was trying to tell that you're an evil person for wanting to turn a profit in your business, because out there are people who live on a "fixed income" who don't have the ability to pay the extra costs for freight once they're passed on to the end user. :biggrin_25521:

    I guess every profitable o/o is a evil person!!! The only way we are nice in his eyes is if we go broke!

    I agree...I mean...if wanting to turn a profit and make a living is greed...then what is it called when you say "yes'm" every time a shipper wants to give you freight that pays 40 cents a mile? Well I know what its called, but I can't say it on here, haha.

    What does that have to do with me being so called "greed" because I REFUSE to run a business that I can't make profit with?

    Absolutely nothing, but lets disregard the facts, and supplement them by dodging the argument and playing a video that doesnt work from someone who needs more tinfoil on his hat.

    Not trying to bring up the dead, but I will. My last post was a while back and somone (innocently whistles) finally gave me a ding for using the truth about how one CAN do well in the economy as it is. And apparently, Im clueless.

    I was saying that one should refuse cheap loads, learn how to negotiate, run and master your own business and I get flak?

    Granted, Ill be the first to admit that Im not an owner op. At the same time, my ability to use common sense hasn't failed me yet and when it comes to running a successful business, I don't see why taking charge of yoru own company is a bad thing. Maybe thats just me.

    So bring it on...I got two days off, and a grocery store down the street full of caffinated pop.
