Rates right now suck ass, if I cant get $3.75 a loaded mile my truck will sit in the driveway, too bad more carriers dont do this kinda stuff and learn these shippers and brokers a lesson

We can't seem to get over 2.45/loaded mile. It sucks... we'll just take what loads we can until thing rebound I suppose

I mean no disrespect whatsoever it's just a question if I was at home in my trucks part because the rates are so low I would be going to the broker School online are going to Phoenix Arizona to that school there in person it's $2,500 5 days you can bring one guest to get educated on how brokers do what they do I wanted other drivers have ever thought of this or what they think of that it's just an idea I've only got 30 years experience driving 48 States and Canada but I'm currently home and I'm home every night and I do a job getting paid by the hour

While some of us have been saying no to cheap freight, others continue to say yes. The South African commando’s have returned yet again, to rescue incompetent business owners, and keep driving the market into the toilet.

Don't forget, Uncle Sam, who is broker than YRC, is there to bail you out. Even if you don't need it, you must take it! It's free!!

In the wild every species is elevated as the weak perish and the strong survive, but over here in our world it’s just the opposite, the weak are elevated with bailouts, and the strong are sacrificed to promote the weak. Ironically those promoting the doctrine live in gated communities, and want everyone else to wear a mask.
