The Trucker Limbo Dance
Just as I thought that rates could go no lower. Guess what I was wrong, they are getting so cheap that I can no longer get pissed, but it is having the adverse effect on me now. I thought I would make this little game for us to share and have fun in.
Here are the rules:
1. Post the lowest offering that you have received
2. Be creative if you name the company don't put their actual name in the post (example Powerhouse Transportation would now be Poophouse Transvestites)
3. Put the miles but don't put the actual towns
4. Let's see how low we can go
Have fun, I will start
Today I was shopping at a wordly supermarket and was offered .50 per bu for beans from Ks - MO for 311 miles. $425.00 for 850 bu, $1.36 loaded. We decided to pass at that supermarket and bounced the truck to St. Louis to pick up better freight tomorrow. We would have had to bounce 96 miles to pick up this wonderful deal, well we would be halfway to the good stuff without having to work for free.
Today I was stopped by some Cold Hard Robbers in Ok and they wanted to rob us and have us haul a load from OK - IL for 800 miles for $750.00. 45K (dry van) .93 per mile. We told the Cold Hard Robbers no thanks but if they really were hurting that bad for money that we could donate to their broker association and maybe they could learn how to actually acquire better customers you would think they would know how to do that after Robbing for over 100 years.
Hope you enjoyed these little riddles the names were changed to protect the guilty, these are actual factual offerings. Can you hear the Limbo Music playing now?
Have fun yall, How Low Can You Goooooooooooooooooooo!
