I SEE!! Let's see if I get this right, are you saying that REAL expediting is HARD WORK? :D

We picked up in Cleveland on Tues, delivered in QC on Wed. Picked up in QC on Wed and delivered in MN on Thurs. No new loads yet. :( I would have liked on more this week. Maybe tomorrow.

I went back in service Tueday as a solo. (Wife had to stay home for 2 more weeks). No loads Tuesday, no loads Wednesday. Planning moved me to Atlanta Wednesday night. No loads Thursday. Finally got a load picking up Friday delivering on Saturday. A whopping $440 gross for the week. I don't know how solo's in a surface expedite truck survive.

Those small ones can add up at the end of the week, giving a better week than others that had a couple of long ones.

sounds almost like the situation I was in for awhile....every mistake Bolt makes now will be amplified in your mind and you'll toss and turn...make the decision.....live with it or move on.....just that simple...you'll be happier that way...


Morning Ken, I am still waiting on my first cup. Raining here in MN.

Man I need that bad, I did that ALL wrong!! GEEZ sorry.
