I found this ad on CLs looking for trucks.

DEDICATED LANES- Owner Operator/ Driver/ Fleetowner

.94 cpm LOL so i wotre them this email. I do it all the time with low rates posted. 99% of ther time i get no reply. But i did this time.

ME
.94 CPM LOL WHAT A JOKE. Good luck finding good O/Os for that. Maybe 1.94 is more like it.

Greatwide
Actually, we have 45 of the 60 lanes covered already. Good luck finding
ANY miles in January. This is steady miles and paid loaded or empty, not
to mention all of the benefits that come with running under a large
corporation's authority instead of your own.

Spoiled truck drivers will not last in this economy. Plain and simple.


ME
Please tell me what these benefits are that make up for the .94 CPM. Also just for laughs is the 94 cpm with the fuel surcharge??

Greatwide
No, the fuel surcharge would be added to that. I really don't have time
to sit here and try to convince you of something that you were so
obviously turned off by, just for laughs. The very fact that you took the
time out of your day to e-mail me with an attitude and to tell me how
interested you were NOT tells me that you are not the kind of owner
operator that I'm looking for. It also tells me that you must not be
getting many miles if you have that kind of time to waste, which is
probably why you're looking for work in the first place.

I have interested owner operators to address. Thank you for making my day
a little brighter in this Christmas season with your negative attitude, I
hope someone does the same for you.

Good day.

ME
Your right it is for laughs. Even with the F/S that brings the rise up to what a big 1.25 give or take. I can tell you never owned a truck if you think you can run for them rates. You have a merry christmas too.

Greatwide
I'm pretty sure I already said good day.

Mackman, I did the same **** with the recuiter in Louisville this past MATS. As I was walking by with my dad, he stopped us and asked if we were interested in running dedicated lanes from Chicago to Detroit and such. I told them "Sure, pay me $2 a mile and I'll run it 7 days a week" and the guy got ****ty. He turned to look at my dad and my father said "Dont look at me, i drive for Wal-Mart and you guys f*ck up enough of our stuff already" and the guy just walked away LOL
