I've been visiting this forum for a few days now and i'm excited on how many things i could learn from reading from other's experiences.

A little about myself is that i just started in the O/O arena.Only 24 years old and had my cdl for about 2 years.Served in the military for about 3 and a half years and still serving in the national guard here in AZ.I juggle the trucking business/family life and national guard stuff.I love the trucking business and even with it's ups and downs i believe there is still hope for it to make a good living.What i'm looking from you guys is to learn as much as possible and hopefully without to many mistakes from my own. Had a quite great experience when i worked for swift for a few months.Not that i got fired by them ,but i resigned when i was making around $200 a week even with all my best efforts to make more miles from them.That's quite a story to tell for another time ,tough.

Anyways, what i was looking for is what's the best way for a F.N.G. to be able to deal with a broker so that i will be able to get his business and not haul for cheap so it will hurt me and others.In other words what's the best selling point in something like this.???? :?:

More will follow as i will be looking to participate as much as i can in this great forum.
TY and God Bless :D
