    The report is spot on. During Covid the load rates were high. Now the rates in the Spot Market are about half as much or even less. It's not so much there is a shortage of loads but the brokers are taking money off the top. A typical load that may have been $2,500 lets say between Greenville SC to Orlando. Now that same run is going for around $1,000. Once again the price of diesel fuel as well as gas is going up. Meanwhile the brokers are driving $100,000 cars. You need to do an investigation on the brokers. like C H Robinson in Knoxville TN.

      You are yet another uneducated driver...Brokers will always take there part off the top...they are in business also. The companies are not going to pay those rates that they paid doing corvid when it's 1 million of you uneducated drivers waiting at the truck stop. it's simple supply and demand, seen this many times before. it's is to blame the brokers and agents but really you are the problem...to many of you corvid born so called drivers ...did you really think rates were going to stay at $5 plus ?

      I get the broker hate but brokers are a necessary evil unless every single owner-op wants to form 1-on-1 relationships with shippers in every city/state they drive to. And even if everyone of them did, shippers don't want to deal with dozens of drivers calling and saying "I'm in the area do you have anything going out?" Brokers are supposed to play the match maker part that drivers and shippers don't want to do themselves.

    Never lease a truck. You can lease on to a company to haul their stuff under their DOT numbers. But don't lease the actual truck via payments direct to the company. They know the numbers, they know the loads, they set the payment amounts, they've crunched out almost all the profit and leave you enough for fuel and not much more, you'll drown at first major repair.

    Creating Indentured Servants, by forcing them to remain on the road for Months, appears to be the aim of the Trucking Industry?
    A week run out and back assures the drivers can find good sources of food and services.
    The pressure to consume in overpriced Truck Stops,
    does little to insure healthy lifestyle or the ability to save a dime.

    😂😂😂 Randy Timms handled this outstandingly well. He did everything he could to try to let you know you were producing a BS story without coming out and saying this was a lazy get rich quick schemer whose poorly laid plans had come back to bite her. 😂😂😂 You couldn’t pick up on any of the red flags? Really? Not even when she acted like real business owners “get a check” every week? Geez…

      40 years ago, I knew drivers who kept two log books. Some actually drove more than 16 hours a day. The boss didn't care, since it brought in more cash for everybody. (I don't know if the system has changed since then, other than satellite trackers).

      Not 70 hours of driving, 70 hours of work that includes driving. Some people run their clocks all way down to the last few hours and then take a 34 reset.

      I can't speak to her business managing abilities but as it was said in the video, rates are so bad right now that owner-ops are parking their trucks and getting jobs driving company trucks - they make more money driving someone else's truck than they can driving the truck they already have.
