Thanks man. I'm still in the office, for now. Wife's working remote, and I'm waiting to see what shenanigans the state decides to pull.Scooter Jones Thanks this.

To the t.v.? I thought that's a man's deal
PPLC, Dale thompson and Midwest Trucker Thank this. -
I talked to a freight broker I know this morning. He is frantically trying to broker as many loads as he can right now. I could hear the palpable concern and uncertainty in his voice.PPLC Thanks this.

Rates are going up even by DAT accounts.
Because all of you are virus profiteering.
JonJon78 Thanks this. -
If people just got into the correct mindset, we could push rates way up. Our bottom all miles acceptable avg is 2.30. If we go below that it’s considered a failure. I’ve told my guys I’d like to move that to 3/mi ASAP. That is where it should be anyway. If everyone did this we all would be much better off.Scooter Jones and Dave_in_AZ Thank this.

I agree. Agents will call with a 3ish number per mile and act like it's the end all to be all.
And I say the exact same thing you just wrote, that's where it should at least be to begin with.spyder7723 and JonJon78 Thank this. -
Could also be cause March is almost in the mirror.
Feb 14 to Mar 31 always sucks. -
Like I said, I'll just keep booking 1 to 2 loads (as long as they're available) at a time for the best negotiated rate I can get, for my region
PPLC Thanks this.
