Just another foolish post from the Tower of Babble. Mandy, you appear to be more interested in paraphrasing the professionals who actually perform the research than contributing anything positive to a thread. But we can all play along with your egocentric riddles if that's they way you want to post here.Originally Posted by Mandilon

Sad,isn't it? You would think these idiots would offer a fair rate to carriers that provided them with a good service in other areas and not take advantage of them when they get in a bad area. I have the same philosophy with the ridiculous 1.00pm or less freight.

Last month a broker that had a cheap load out of TX wouldn't budge on his rate but was practically begging me to take a load when I was in KS. When I told him my rate he about fell out of his chair.
