Just people. Some figgure they are bitten if the get shorted fifty miles on a 1500 mile run, some don't feel bitten until someone sticks em for a grand. It's all relative. Jes say'in if you are looking to get bit, you certainly will.

No, actually, my loaded miles have been right on the money with this and the previous carrier I was with.What I mean by I hope this works out is, too many times I have heard and been told,(as I am sure alot of others) many promises on how great it is at a carrier when talking to a recruter, rep, etc, only to find out the opposite once signed on, or after the usual honeymoon period.But so far everything they told me has come true, and I am happy so far.If there is a problem, I address it in a courteous, freindly manner until it is resolved.I am, for the most part, a happy, upbeat, positive person and strive to continue to be that way, no matter how tough things get. And prayer does work wonders, also.

Oh I understand, but the miles thing was just ONE example of why people git their shorts in a bunch. I guess the key is....like any relationship....don't let the honeymoon stop like so many do in life.

Bucyrus Oh to Hamtramck Mi....then and out of service till Sunday night.....Maybe might stay out till after Thanksgiving....depends on how long i can deal with the attitude of the 15 y/o daughter....

The way most 15 year olds are, it's a wonder any of us made it past that age!

Still home watching you guys/gals on the road.
