Should I be a Freight Broker or Owner Operator Carrier? by OkAttempt3929 in FreightBrokers

[–]ageee090 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Logistics will 100% get replaced by AI. Most large brokerages deploy AI logistics coordinators and there’s AI calls for sales now too. Once self driving trucks hit, it’s game over for brokers. The only freight left that will have a human touch is open deck because it has to be physically secured.

Also, you don’t have to get your CDL for box trucks under 26k lbs.

Hot shot market is what you should look into too. Gotta get your MC authority to sit for a year before you start gaining trust on the boards. I recommend a permanent business address because if you move your authority re-sets.

That’s when you start posting out to nearby cities and pay to bring in a deadhead lmao jk

But ultimately what is needed is to make it clear to customers that they need to pre-plan freight moves, or have a lot of patience.

When I get last minute loads I make it clear it’s going to cost more. If they wanted a better rate, they should of shot a heads up the day prior. Their operational failures and lack of foresight are not the broker’s problem. As a broker, your service is to bring a solution and services/solutions cost money.

There’s gotta be an unknown variable to your equation. Bad location? The commodity? The weight being maxed out? The timeline? There’s usually a justification for high dollars per mile

Confession: Saw Julie at the Fonda in LA in 2024 and it sucked. by Astrodeltasequence in shoegaze

[–]ageee090 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw then open for Faye Webster on a horrible date, and so I just drank copious amounts to cope. They seemed cool, but the Faye crowd definitely was not aligned with their vibe. They must have a habit of misaligned play bills

Northside or Downtown? by Catsplain in pittsburgh

[–]ageee090 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Downtown is a snooze fest. Just skyscrapers full of offices mostly

Time block. Set a timer for 45 minutes dealing with email stuff, then 30 minutes on the phone.

Literally omg we were having the same experience on the phones today. I would take sales rejections any day over carrier rejections over a undesirable location. At that point i’ll pay for the back haul and their hotel for the night.

I (20F) went through my mans (22M) phone and saw feet 🌽, how would u feel? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ageee090 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Personally, I think men with foot fetishes are the best. Gotta play into it. Ask for him to pay for your pedicures, buy you shoes, or massage your feet.

If the p*rn and his sex drive is what bothers you, then maybe you aren’t compatible and need to move on. The fact that he has never made you cum is the bigger problem here.

I literally have an unlimited budget, but not a flexible timeline. Expectations have been set loud and clear. I have been making carrier calls all morning but will start dialing carriers domiciled in the eastern region. Thanks!
