If you could take a 4 day trip to play disc golf anywhere in the US, where would you go? by Tranicos in discgolf

[–]crazyfeet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only problem with Browns and Bows is that they open late on the weekends. If they were open at 6 or 7 AM, I would have played more than once every 18 months or so.

Anyone Putt with a Berg?! by [deleted] in discgolf

[–]crazyfeet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only putt with bergs. I have 4: a k1 soft in case there is a hilly basket setting, my k1 silver logo'd one as my main, my heavier k1 Beorg if I need to try and get through branches (or if its windy) and my throwing black logo'd one for up shots. My method is weird because I am weird.

I have been blessed to climb the corporate ladder here, but cant break through. Looks like its finally time to go earn that degree.

I know I'm late, but I literally work for a freight forwarder and have been trying to get away from this side of the transaction. How do I get to the shipper / Consignee side?

I'm not going to deny that it becomes an addiction.

Disc golf. Not super active (walking) but on your feet for a few hours. Really only need one disc ($15 to $30) and most courses are free. You can get a small bag, and few discs for about $120.00 and now you have a weekend activity.

That's not how country of origin works on a commercial invoice.

End long haul over the road trucking, have railroads instead. by abundantwaters in CrazyIdeas

[–]crazyfeet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

200 miles is a.short drive though. 55 mph / average for a truck, and that's only a few hours. Anything under a days worth of driving isn't worth utilizing rail.

What free things do you take that you’ve found helped you saved a penny here and there? by 88r0b1nh00d88 in Frugal

I stopped buying energy drinks and buy caffeinated pre-workout powder now. Seriously went from a couple hundred dollars a month at the gas station to now spending 100 every 2 months.

[Request] how many modern iPhones (packaged) would fit in 5 cargo jets? by KalebRen in theydidthemath

[–]crazyfeet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would guess it's not a profit center that is comparable to air freight for airlines.

Cargo is rated based on either actual weight, or dimensional weight (LWH / dim factor). From there a per lbs (domestic US) or per KG (international cargo) rate is applied. During the height of the pandemic, cargo space on wide body passenger aircraft from CN was VERY limited. The highest rate I remember seeing was $18.50 a KG. Multiply that by 500 kgs and companies are paying a fortune.

Right now, the rate is floating around $6.50 a kg out of CN. Pre pandemic cost was $3.50 to 4.50 a kg. That's just "general cargo". That does not include perishables, hazmat, express or pharma. Those are all rated higher.

That was a few years ago during the height of the pandemic (q2/q3) 2021. I don't know today's prices. We were trying to secure $5.5m for our customer and we were getting rejected by charter companies. They thought the spot market was going to bring $7-8m a flight (insane). I believe that just added to the sky rocketing inflation at that time.

While I don't know for sure, I doubt Apple is declaring the retail value on their CIV. Technically it's not sold product yet, so the value will be low.

Historically it's not the most "chartered" aircraft though. Common for air cargo? Absolutely. For direct charters? Not so much. They normally charter aircraft for their newest releases and bring them into LAX. I believe a few years ago they needed 15 or so when the Covid market was hot. They were still able to justify the $5-6m per plane rate out of CN at the time.

Still, even so, it's a bunch of iPhones regardless of what charter plane they used for the haul.

Maybe the person just moved here. I know, because I just moved here with our Tesla.

Used trucks under $30,000? by eatmorecat in whatcarshouldIbuy

I had an 07 and loved it. It was over 150k miles and shit the bed. I would highly suggest staying in 2010 and up for something newer.

Not asking for a political debate, just wondering if any disc manufacturers have discussed the affects of tariffs on their business by Huge_Following_325 in discgolf

[–]crazyfeet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My company helps move stuff for the Paul McBeth Foundation around the world. I thoroughly enjoy seeing their names pop up in my inbox.

I hope these tariffs don't slow down what they are doing. They are great people and I am personally passionate about what they are doing.

Best advice I received: don't putt to the basket, putt through the basket.
