Picking my own freight baby! My journey to & of being on Schneider choice, the Adventure & Numbers!

That would be my guess. The logistics company is seeing increased rates but bothering it to the trucking company at the same rate. Perfectly legal. Ethical? Not so much. And says to me that they do not think of their owner operators as business partners.

 

From my talks with our agents, contracted lane rates are negotiated quarterly, and sometimes monthly. I get the feeling from those talks that while there will be exceptions, this is industry standard.

 

So you have to make a payment at one point of $65K or make a payment towards that $65K??

So do you have to make the residual payment all at once or could you have it deducted?

 

I can tell you one undeniable fact. Losing the you tube stars is the best thing that could happen for you guys. More will come along to replace them though. Rates are only part of the problem. There will never be enough good loads to go around when you have recruitment tools like that everywhere you turn on a program that is already to easy to get on the first place. Oversaturation is what killed it and the low rates are partially a bi product of that.

 

Looks like choice isn't the way to go then lol

 

I'm having a pretty good week.

 

On and on and on... same thing months ago. Good news I'm having a killa Mercer week again. If this make everyone feel better Schneider sucks!!!

 

I've heard a lot of good about Mercer.
