I didn't realize how long it had been since I've been on here, but my location hasn't changed at all. Must be a dead area.

We do the occasional load as a partner. You won't have any trouble getting paid. They're like clockwork as far as that goes. They like to skim off the accessorial pay though, like offering you weird amounts for dry runs and detention, so I figure they're charging more than that and offering...

I opened the door and found a tarantula sitting on the pavement, and picking up a load in Del Rio once a stray dog tried to hop into the truck after I gave it some leftovers.

If you're not sure what happens when you die, it seems like a conversation with your pastor might be in order. There are some on here who could help you in that area as well.

Yeah, stick with straights. A couple years ago we had a lot of vans and since then we've switched the focus to straights. Now out of our 30 units, only 6 aren't dock high.

Nice looking van. Looked a lot like a Sprinter copy.

Well, there's a way to handle that situation too. If you expect some communication back from a broker when they don't use your bid, they should expect the same communication back from you at the point you are no longer available to haul that load. If you have a bid in with a broker and haven't...

Ok, a friend "blessed" us with an abundance of zucchinis, so I came home after the expo today and baked several loaves of bread. I'll bring 2 or 3 with me tomorrow and I'll have them in my booth, booth 372. We're right next to Bolt. Anyway, maybe someone could come by around closing time and...

We have some good ones, but you can't have them.:)

I volunteer to eat. I'm pretty good at that. I might make some of those rolls again this year.

Down there if you want to call it, here kitty kitty won't work. You have to try aqui gato gato.

When she's gone, get a young one. You won't get much work done then either.

I see it a lot with loads from C.H. Robinson. I'll get an email from them and then within a minute three different people will have it posted on Sylectus.

Except she was there when I found them. This one is much healthier, so as long as I can convince her, he might be able to stick around for the long haul. We live on 3 wooded acres, so there are quite a few strays. The young ones are easy to domesticate, but any others I find will probably get...

Hell could be considered a proper place name, depending on your theology, so you would think it would be acceptable.

160+ Geniuses and truckers you'll never meet because they're not hanging out in the truck stop lounge. 120-159 Graduate degree and 20 years experience in his chosen field, drives a truck because his job is in India. 100-119 once delivered a load to a college campus 80-99 governed company...

It's not about the amount of DH miles, but about if the revenue is high enough over the cost to do the load to make it worth your while.

In all my time on the road I did quite a few runs into JFK and I found that generally I had better luck going across Staten Island than the GW.

Happened to me once. We had a team load from Chicago to Hartford, CT that we had to use another carrier because our truck broke down. I was told it was a team truck, only to find out the next morning that the solo driver in a day cab was shut down by DOT in PA. Then I had to find another...
