Rate increase

[wshort]

Well the new rate increase produced two offers today one at 1.00
a mile and another at 1.19 a mile, one involved 9 miles DH the other
one 21 miles DH, as I had the audacity to ask for a little more on the
latter one I recieved no call back and haven't had another offer for
over 10 hours now and most likely none til tomorrow morning if then,
in the mean time 2 's and 6 D's that arrived after I did have left with
loads.
Yeah they were probably all legimate D loads or team or WG loads or
sitting on the customers doorstep, whatever....

I think in most cases it makes no sense to ask FEDEX for more money on the run. Take it or refuse it.
Most of the time Dispatch finds a newbie who takes the run anyway. :wtf:

It depends Harry, if no other trucks around then you can play "FedEx poker"
and raise the ante for runs, of course they have the dealers advantage in
that they know how many trucks are REALLY in the area and all you have
is the fictional VRU and C-link counts to go by.
