Ironic, this thread running along with one on LTL freight.
Then FTL, and exclusive use became up.
A guy had to ask what-in-thee-hell (my term) that meant. As he shipped things, and wanted to understand how the issue affected him.
Were the guys communicating about freight issues, in industry terms,
doing anything wrong? Hiding anything? Showing themselves superior?
Or, were they just using familiar terminology to communicate?
Was the guy who ask stupid?
In my opinion, it was a reasonable, efficient conversation.
The guy who ask? Reasonable that people outside the industry aren't familiar with the jargon. Reasonable to ask. And he was brought up to speed.
But hell, it's truck driver talk. Can't be too complicated.😉
