    I feel your pain, brother. We are doing the same in L.A. along with a half a million other FedEx trucks. We also get the added bonus of 3 more El Nino based storms rolling in over the next few days!!!!!! LOL!! Gotta love it!! ;)

    Hey Rocket, happy to see you back again!! Hope all is well in your little part of the world!! I don't think God gets too upset when we use humor, after all, He invented that as well. I have no problem mocking the lord god Obama, he is worthy of mocking. As to the Supreme Court and where and...

    The more dirt a kid plays in when he/she/it is young the more likely he/she/it is to live a live with fewer illnesses. Same goes for adults!! We all need to "get out and play in the dirt more!!! Make sure it is clean dirt though, not chemical laced dirt like golf courses and baseball fields...

    Follow the short term money. Politicians tend to do what those who pay their freight bill tell them to do. Obama pretends to be all for the environment but has not shown any idea that he truly is to date. If he does not do the smart thing and keeps the locks open it will be because he was told...

    That is one of the reasons I like to hunt. I know where my meat comes from then. When I was not driving I cut my own deer up. It might not have looked as pretty as when the butcher did it but I knew how it was handled. Besides, real meat tastes better than the styrefoam meat they sell at the...

    We can survive a lot more than many of us think we can. I am of the opinion that the more we were exposed to "germs" as a kid the healthier, generally speaking, we are as adults. As a kid I was always outside, in the dirt and seldom clean. I mean it was clean dirt, but dirt none the less. I...

    Go in and read some of the posts from owners in the classified section. You can get a pretty good idea as to what is going on. If you choose to go with an owner and pay the fuel, insist on the entire fuel surcharge. Get a contract. While there are still owners out there who's handshake is a good...

    Spend a few months reading these forums. Go back into the archives as well. Ask a zillion questions. Do you own a truck? If not, I would suggest that if you decide to come into CC that you start by driving for an owner. What would you do with your ground routes? How long can you stay out on...

    We have been as far NW as Anchorage, AK. As far NE as St. Johns, NF. As far SE as Homestead FL and as far SW as San Diago, CA I don't think that CC is taking on WG teams right now. TVAL requires a class and the truck that is qualified. We also have hazmat/radmat/explosives and art work...

    We gross more than that most of the time. Keep in mind that we are a WG TVAL team with all qualifications. During the week we don't sit much at all. Sitting over this weekend. We are more often than not pre-dispatched for Mondays, not this week. Not the norm for us. I cannot tell you what...

    If that is gross for both together you should do better. Our income is not steady but we rarely have any weeks that gross that low. When we do it is because we took some time off.

    We are a WG team with all the bells and whistles and are doing ok right now. Last year was different but turned out good for us. I don't have any idea what ground drivers make so I can't compare. I assume you drive a T/T rig now, that would give you more options in CC or I would say a DR unit...
