    How is everyone handling the adjuster's fee schedule in regard to mileage & fees, particularly in light of ever increasing expenses with stagnant wages?

    Gas here (on Long Island) is about $3.40/gallon. Adjusting Companies are still charging 45-50 cents/mile, which was the rate when I 1st started in 1991. They are also still agreeing to give 50-100 miles for free. Is anyone turning down work because Mickie D's or the Big W pays more? :)

    Has anyone noticed that the hourly rate for a demo person is higher than we get to pocket as an adjuster? What are your feelings & how do you plan on handling it? Personally, I feel our profession just can't be beaten down any more than it already has been. Thought/Feelings/Plans?

    Hope everyone's turkey day was a great one!!!
