No offense remus but I never would have made any money in expedite if I had your attitude. I usually always had to deadhead out from home to get started. I would stay out of service for about 2 days then go in service at home for about a day then get an empty move to the memphis board where I...

I said safety suits as that is what I thought they were reffered to in orientation, but I think they might have been saying safety sups as in short for supervisors? Anyway they both sound the same to my ear.

One timeI ran out of hours about 50 miles from delivery and the safety suit was gonna have me towed to the consignee. I saw a team from the same company at the truck stop and talked to them they both had all their hours and the guy said he would drive it to the delivery for 50 bucks. I called...

Oak Grove,Mo is a good place to stage to stay out of KC. I actually like the Petro there, but each to his own.

uship.com isn't very good if you ask me. The freight is cheap, and you have to bid on it like at ebay. Even though it's free to be a member it's not really worth it. I mean it doesn't hurt to look, but the people who run it advertise it as the cheapest place to ship. Alot of the time the stuff...

The only thing about telling someone they can avg. 12,000 a month is when they come in this biz at the begining of Jan and don't do that in Jan they are mad because they feel they got lied to. I'm really starting to feel like more people are just jumping in and don't have a cue about what they...

I don't know if any of you remember, but a few onths ago I posted about how my brothers high school FFA makes biodeisel in their shop. Well we were talking about this weekend and I asked him what did they use to heat the soy oil up with. He said they have 40 gallons of soy oil in a 55 gallon...

That was a great post Broom and I enjoyed reading it. You and your wife have been angels to me and mine. Today our pastor told us in his sermon we should start giving God thanks for the most recent things he has done for us and work our way back, and if we are truely honest about it we will not...

RE: The problem with wages is this everytime minumim wage goes up so does everthing else. It's like a hamster wheel. We are running faster and faster but getting no where.

Someone said something about people making smart aleck coments towards Phil. I'm not sure but I think some of it is joking around to a certain degree. Nevertheless Phil doesn't seem to let it bother him. That is why alot of times when I respond directly to Phil I say things like I'm not trying...

wouldn't a true michiganite's palm print correspond with the highways so it's like a road map?

Well when you decide you want to get married or live like you are married(which I am not condeming) you have to make certain sacrifices. It's not like when you were a kid playing house, now it is for real. If there is no work where you currently live you may need to move. I know plenty of people...
