    He has another video or two floating around on social media, same kinda stuff. Wants brokers regulated but doesn’t seem to understand that if they are regulated on how much they can make that there is nothing stopping it from happing to trucks too.

    Pretty much. I don't think we as a company have ever had anyone request that, but I've shared what I charge the customer with a couple of my regulars, and I've shared what I pay my carrier with a couple of my customers. It keeps them all happy.

    You do all realize me and my wife can make an expose video of the same caliber about each and every broker i dont like by the end of today right?

    He may just be launching his own lobbyist career. Heck half of the stars today leak their own sex tapes for publicity.

    I need a stiff drink after talking to these brokers. I never lose my cool with em til today. Not really #####in at them, more like the fools who've been running high toll NE area for a buck a mile. Didn't really know what to say when i told em yeah that would of been good 40 yrs ago. You're gonna keep playing these games you're gonna under cut yourself out of a job.

    Rant over

    Song seems fitting. Don't even know what to call this. Country-hip hop but hey it's fitting LOL for those running for peanuts

    Around here it's global trans Niles. Most say TQL but we've got #### good spot rates with them. Twin tiers in Elmira is dirt cheap so is Nolan most times

    I'm getting worn down by the overall bs. Not rates so much. I'm pulling some good rates, but the stupidity, not my problem, whatever the excuse of the day is, is getting to me.

    The guy that owns the ground where I keep my truck always laughs at me. Tells me I'm out of my mind having multiple trucks.

    Seems like every simple thing is a 10 round title fight now.

    I'm wearing down.

    If you weren't based there, would you still say the same about TQL??

    I mean waiting at the house, opposed to waiting at The Pilot are very different.
