:mad: Monday morning checked with bank. No deposit and no deposit pending. Week 5 no pay, not even the re-imbursements of 238.00 he owes us that we had to pay to get the truck out of the detail shop when we originally picked the truck up. :mad:

Well maniac guess your not the only one having issues with this truck owner. Wish I had seen your post before we started driving for him.

I hope you recoup your money.

BUT with that said ...

Hope you understand this comment;

No one forces anyone to enter into this business and if you accept a crap truck, who is to blame but you?

Remember this is not a lifestyle nor is it a paid vacation or what ever, it is a business and if the owner is so crappy, then he doesn't need to be here because it is a problem for those who don't get it or are desperate to make money.

How many sentences is that? Punctuation isn't one of those things that can be said to be over-rated. That's very hard to read.

But dude, that wasn't even close. Makes it hard to read.

P.S. "Perfect" is an absolute. It's incorrect to modify an absolute to indicate a degree, as in "not as perfect."

I agree with AMonger. Sometimes the spelling in these posts are beyond terrible. I always check my spelling 3 times before making a post. If everybody would just check their spelling and word usage, it would be much better reading and knowing what the poster meant in the message.

Wait a minute MC, it really does not matter to many of us.

Some are not novelist, many can't spell and while some depend on spell check, others don't.

It does not matter.

Even worst yet are those who use that 'u' in words like colour and cheque.

Don't let it get to you.

Sorry Greg, didnt know you couldn't read "Canadian", but I cann't actually type "American", so just try and avoid my posts... 'cause I use words like colour and centre.

There are actually some folks that think I'm a nice guy, but yeah, I have my moments. I just can't believe that so many people can't write at a very basic level. All I really need is periods at the end of a sentence, the rest isn't that important. But, you know, grade school level structure would be nice.

We see people that can operate a 'puter, access the net, become a posting member here, but just can't seem to create a sentence. I don't get it, but I'm willing to listen...

What's up with that?
