Good post Phil. I guess putting it more clearly would be, I do have specific income goals, however, I will sacrifice "possible" income to spend at least part of Sunday with family, going to church, etc. I will however take weekend loads that del on Monday and have time to go "out of route" to...

We have to remember too, we all have different goals. Some want as much money as humanly possible, so stay out weeks. Others do this for the flexibility. We can run a few days, then go home, and still clear more than a 9-5 job. Myself, 99% of the time I'm home on Sunday. Personal choice...

I heard a rumor they're raising van rates to $1.75 a mile! (Ok... I started it..but, hey!)

LOL...so wrong.

In another thread, the conversation moved from truck appearance, to personal appearance. I'm just curious how others represent their company. I mean we've all see the dirty t shirt/flip flops guys, but apparently none of them are on here lol. Do you wear company logo'd apparel? A standard outfit...

Bubblehead, Since they call it "apparel" not "uniforms" (lol..I got reminded that uniform implies employee..thats. another thread ..) I'd say we can wear anything in the Fedex catalogue and be in "approved" apparel. There are several different outfits, shirts, sweaters, etc, including the dress...

Turtle, What does it cost for the full version? Thanks, Dale

Slo-Ride, Yeah, my old phone had an "OK" internet browser, (LG Lotus) but some sites would not work correctly. um.. THIS one. LOL.. which was a problem. It would not let me log in and post. I could read the posts, keep an eye on the forums, but to post, I had to get the computer out...

I carry two sets .. one time of hearing that horrible "click" and realize the keys are in the ignition ....yep... thats all it takes! Dale

Thanks everyone!

I finally replaced my phone with a new touch screen HTC Hero, which runs Google Android apps. Anyone using it? Any suggestions for apps? Is there a tether app for it? What a learning curve! Makes me feel old! Awesome browser tho, compared to my LG LOTUS.(on it now) Touch screen sure...
