Congrats. I love being able to work for myself. Glad you're liking it too. Keep up the good service and good communication with your customers. It won't matter who comes along offering a cheaper rate.

Well, when you're leased to one carrier, it's kind of similar to working a job in that you have a very focused task to perform. When you run your own company, you are the salesman, the bookkeeper, and the driver. And yes, you will learn alot, especially when someone tries to cheat you. Or at least, that's been my educational experience.

My wife is also self-employed as a graphic artist. The hardest thing for her to accept is that she is not being lazy just because she didn't design on the computer all day.
