    How many miles should you expect?

    I have to agree with Nightcreature. It's not miles. It's so many other things that fit into the picture. All miles don't pay the same. All runs don't put you in a desireable place. We have set our goals based on our first 30 days as expediters. We developed a plan from that time span and...

    Parking solution

    I understand and appreciate all your comments. My point here is even though someone else owns the buildings and lots, this type of retaliation may be brought to the attention of such person or persons by the retail personel. If that happens, we may be loked at from another angle. The "public...

    Your Prayers Please for Glen and Janice Rice

    Glen Rice was a tremendous help to Tod and I when we were trying to decide on a career change to expediting. We will remember him in our thoughts and wish him the best outcome.

    Keeping the sleeper floor clean in wet weather

    The best deal I have ever found on these pads is at Petedge.com. Petedge is a wholesale warehouse of pet supplies. They will sell to anyone. There price for their brand of pads (which are the best ones I've used) is $29.99 for 200.

    Keeping the sleeper floor clean in wet weather

    I know this has been discussed several times but we found this solution by mistake and I want to share. Puppy training pads make great disposable rugs. After someone had workrd on our truck, they placed the potty pad between the seats on the floor in the truck so they wouldn't get the floor...

    Mistake

    Well I just happened to be at Wal Mart and found the Black & Decker Home Cafe. This is a single serve that uses the coffee pods. Since Tod doesn't drink coffee it's prfect. It makes a great 14 ounce cup of coffee in about 1.5 minutes then shuts off. I had been looking for a coffee maker for...
