Shh let him try it

I've never been tested, and don't know any van drivers that have. That being said, I'd test my employees for sure and possibly owner operators. Such an obvious risk reduction

And call attention to our unhappiness that we make more after expenses than a highway tractor...that'll get sympathy :p

I think I give up answering newbie posts. They already have it figured out :D

Put that way, it does seem like a no brainer doesn't it. Pick up the phone and call some brokers near you, I'd be interested to hear how it goes

Take the local advice. I only worked 2, 9 hour days last week, grossed $700 US. Home, and back to home

Yep. Told u I refused a heated load last year, I'm working on my cheap-ass-ness (no espar) Blankets might be overkill. Make sure you check that load once and awhile, hope its latex and not explosive :eek:

Happy Birthday guido4475! Had that sweet "local" today. 2 of those a week, and bills are paid

Wow. A run It was predicted, freezing rain and the other drivers suddenly stop answering the phone :D

Geez at this rate I'm gonna start doing uship

Speaking of that, it's amazing how many jobs there are for DZ (your class B I think) near me. I've never looked before. "Freedom" has an opportunity cost

Aaaand I'm still sitting :D

Can't do that, then he'd need actual drivers with a commercial license :p

Getting closer to the numbers I'm looking for. Not that I'd dream of having employees, just for me There's a company near me that pays $1.50 all miles, plates, tolls...fleet insurance...stands to reason they charge a customer more than $1.50 a mile
