Greetings All,

In my opinion we need to have the Admins on this site setup a requirement on posting of loads on the load board so that no loads can be posted WITHOUT a $ figure in the Rate column... no more "backhaul rate" "call" or "negotiable" or worse... "blank" the cheezy shady back stabbing freight brokers need a reality check... are we allowed to leave blanks or "ill think about it" fields in our IFTAs, Log Books, or any damn form we fill out? including what we pay at the pumps?NO this is a simple HTML code setup in the posting section for loads that REQUIRES a $ figure in the Rate Field or else the load does not get posted therefore they are FORCED to post what the load pays, a little payback for all that we are forced to comply with and I think its high time the freight brokers conform to some of the bs we have to deal with...... Just an opinion any agree?? JLD

i agree very much with you and they should have to put who the load is for so everyone would know who the cheap no good cattle buyer is also. I know they are selling these cattle most of the time delivered for $4 or more and getting trucks to haul them for $2-$3.50 the rest of the money goes right in THEIR pocket, isnt it about time we all let them know we know whats going on, we are not just "DUMB TRUCK DRIVERS". just another opinion.
