    I haul for 2 different broker's on regular basis, and a few load boards if the rate is right.

    Having to count on someone else for my pay, lots of people don't listen to your advice even when there best interests were my biggest priority. The people that did take my advice sold there homes in days for 100% of what they wanted, sometimes 1 or 2 days. Just hate sales not my cup of tea. I dont like trying to convince someone of what is the right thing to do.

    Well, you've come to the right place. No need in trying to convince truck drivers to do anything differently than the way they currently do things ...lol

    You can. If it really is "cheap" they won't be around forever. When they disappear and the customer asks you why you can't do it for the guy who is now broke's price, tell him to call brokeguy. Oh wait he wasn't running a sustainable business. If the customer wants the revolving door of unsustainable trucking then that's not a customer I'd want ..
