Opinions, Advice, and Suggestions...

Do the words Passive/Aggressive mean anything to you..??
You're all insulting and overbearing and then briefly get helpful like so you can then go back and point to just how "generous" you tried to be...
Ya' know, I never even said that I was talking about you, Chompi... and somehow you just inherently knew...
Also, I didn't say that I was offended so please quit projecting false assertions and intentions onto me.
There was some real merit to much of what you had to say in your first post.
What you seem to miss is this...
You don't have to be a condescending jerk to someone to relate good information and ideas. Just tell the truth as you see it and leave the "I know it all and you know nothing" attitude out of it. You have no clue what I do or don't know.
FWIW, one of my best friends has driven for most of 40 years now. (is with Ace Doran ATM) I've learned a lot of things from him too but I'd like to have more opinions than just one.
So, I joined here and sought out just that.
Look, I've got a few years on you and I have been around the block enough times to know that there are real jacka$$es in the world as well as those who just act like one sometimes.
Here's hoping you are just that latter...

 

Thanks for the heads up, Windsmith. I appreciate that and will be reading through those threads tonight...

Also...
I do like cookies...

 

Fair enough.
I consider that matter settled then.

That said, I will say that what you initially said about the 7/7's has made me rethink that a bit.
I will certainly know enough to ask more questions before I get into anything like that.

Thanks

 

Hmm,
Yeah, I see what you mean...
How are these guys making that work then? I mean, Roehl must have enough of them doing it to keep offering it as a "program" or "option".
Also - I see where Schneider gives their drivers the option of getting paid by the mile or by a percentage of the load. I would think the percentage deal would be better if you are running regional or dedicated stuff, wouldn't it?
