I get a kick outa the folks I call at the delivery and ask for directions.....And they can't tell ya how to get there. I then ask them how they get to work each day??? ... and they can't tell me. Really!!!! Couple, three times it's happened in my expediting days.

OK, it's day 5 or 7, is it still "not bad" or great? Wonder'in if'n we can get an update.

Nah, not clairvoyant, waz jes FedUp wiff em. Doubt the pickeruppers will be the undo'in of anyone cept the ones might'a got that xtra bonus weekend run, that stead went on a pickerupper that coud git r there by Monday. Stock picks? I hear yoyo's are going to be back. Maybe a yoyo company...

Me too Mule, Congrats. Now let the education begin.

Unfortuneately Ontario, they'll probably save that 10K each day before noon chain wide, by not having to pay visa their percentage. Big business is mind bogleing, what is a very large sum to you and I, is just an accounting shift to them. Not to stick up for them, but, we have been using TAB...

So, after he listened intently to your post test critical statements, i'll bet he asked. . . . 1. When do I start? 2. When is the first payday? 3. Can you get me a truck with a larger sleeper? 4. A newer truck? 5. Can I have Memorial Day weekend off? And you said. . . . ?

You may have hit the nail squarely on the head. When they bought American, I was gone the next day. Seemed I could see the writing on the wall.

Waitaminute kw, I read something about you doing $1.10 a mile dedicated. Are you doing it all? Or, just typing?

But Dreamer, it's hard on us that can't be on here all day and night to miss the jucy parts of these operas. Just leave them up a bit, will ya?

Yabutt, if you use a smaller wheel, you'll turn too fast and stall. Or, tear the tail off? Then what? Grizz, Polar bear food?

2100 miles last week is probably better than a lot of em run. Maybe some will type of their horror stories and low miles.

Well watd'ja do there Robsdad, get outa the pan into the fire? Graduate? Don't think so. Not anywhere near a grad-e-ate yet. Not being a smart arse here, but, i'm still working my degree in this business after a bit of windshield time. The triangle as you call it, is good for single...

I'd put em on mileage pay, and pay em for what they drive, if'n it waz me. Might break em of sukk'in them eggs. Probably not tho, they'll wanna be paid for the ride'in, be my guess. Self discipline is a very rare thing in our society these days.

Interestingly there truckerb, if a fella d put a couple three loads on you you'd whine bout the mileage pay too. Right?? I can hear the phone ring now. It's always an interesting discussion when they get a second or third, when they demand milage pay. I love it!! The foolishness of it all.

That is correct. We had a D in Detroit yesterday that run a 10 miler and a 8 miler, while waiting to load a NY. Those needed to move as much as the NY run. Many reading here don't understand/care, that, if their Carrier's phone quits ringing - - - so will theirs.

Thats OK TJ, didn't see a thing personal about it. No biggie if it was. Dave, most of em that are not doing well, it seems to me, have no clue about if their working for or, with a Carrier. They simply are working for them. The words we/us are not in their vocabulary. Them is tho. Seems...

If YOU don't "think so", we probably wouldn't.

Well Tom, seems by your last paragraph, you are going to get it right. As Broompilot so eloquently put it a while back, "an ity bity Carrier like you" (yes, we have all of three machines running) after going thru thirty something clowns and clownettes in the last couple years, we finaly have the...

Well Rajay, to be specific, you can make lots as a driver. And, lots and lots, as an owner operator. You will probably gross more as a team. If, you choose to share a truck with someone else.
