Truck Load Rates Halt 8 Week Slide 2.0

No I don't gouge prices in times of crisis.
That's why when I look in the mirror I don't see a littel piece of ####, lazy scumbag of a man.
Got it?

 

Then you're missing the big picture, and these guys were never selling hand sanitizer and face masks on the street like common drug dealers. They were using platforms like Amazon and eBay, something millions of other people do every day. You have appeared to given the green light for large companies and politicians to turn a profit during periods of high demand, but individuals shouldn't be allowed to take advantage of the same opportunities.

Just out of curiosity, when and where do you buy snow chains for your work truck? Do you buy them during the warm months when prices are low, or do you pay at least twice as much and buy them at a small truck stop in the middle of nowhere during a blizzard?

 

Whatever helps you sleep at night.

 

That is a perfect statement. I need good sleep more than money.

 

Does anybody find it amusing when trucks get tight because of whatever all the brokers come out of the woodwork sounding like JFK "Ask not what money you can get from me but ask what you can do for you country"

I did over $100,000 in business with a particular broker last year. Back in Christmas when trucks were tight they acted as if nothing had changed business as usual. They are acting the same now in this current situation.

So.... there is no relationship with any of these people. And there is also no such thing as gouging. Don't let these liars tell you any different. You better make it while you can because it is going back to normal, probably less than normal.

 

If you want to talk about people taking advantage of a crisis, look no further than the state of New York. They're using prison labor to manufacture hand sanitizer that will eventually be sold to the general public. Maybe the governor should be taken out and shot for exploiting a crisis as some have suggested.
