Making homemade bread after turning down a load (yesterday took 20 hours) Not posting much too busy n cranky. But catching up, what is Mr 3000? A week? A month? My old route was 4000 miles a week, did that for 9 years. Steady money, but worked out to 83c a mile gross, hence the $2000 vans and...

Didn't even see a live human in an industrial area here till 8 am. Thought that meant it was laid back. Nope, everybody just leaves themselves 3 minutes to get to work and drive like maniacs. I got honked at Funny seeing atvs driving to work, wouldn't get away with that in suburbia back home...

I get what you thought I said :p maybe some more coffee? The fact that you had a gas station to go to, no matter what the price, instead of trees and moose lol

Good morning from sunny Elliot Lake, Ontario (pop. 11,500) where its a balmy 42F and the skeeters are still biting. Didn't see a gas station for nearly 4 hours from the highway. I'm sure they were there :confused2: found one on google to take my fuel card an hour away...

Oh, its May. And hopefully still 2018 :)

So, while aimlessly browsing on the internet, I came across something called the CLOUD act that was just passed. Wonderful that all the countries of the world share your personal information with each other without a warrant. Hotspots apparently give away your emails, banking passwords...

Ouch! I had some complaining to do, but that blew it all right out of my head. That's more than I paid to buy my van Beautiful weather yesterday. Changed the drivebelt, air and fuel filter. Air filter was pushed up in the middle and sand poured out when removed. This one, I'll change before...

When will US banking come into the 90's? I remember in a brief stint with Key Bank in 2003, an "internet payment" printed a check at the cutomer bank, which was then physically collected by a person and mailed out. Made for fun and games in collections. I guess if they insist on Comdata you're...

Yes. But the very fact that you have to ask the question suggests you don't know what's going on, so you might have problems

NOW I remember why I worked! After nearly 2 weeks home, I'm bored :rolleyes:

I know the answers. I really don't think a step by step explanation would help you, without following through on the previous advice given here. Really want a crash course? Pick up a van or 5 ton for you, start calling for freight offers, and begin the process of solving the huge pile of "but...

That's why I find expedite questionable now. Friend of mine worked yesterday 7:30 to 3:30 doing locals, paid over $400, co-mingling not an issue. He was home at 3:30 and got to pretend he had a "real" job, leave in the morning and home by afternoon... You guys really drove the rates down ya...

Yes but 300k was more thrifty. Never fear, found my trusty universal extendo wrench in my tools. The double sided tape was MB compatible

Anyone ever change the belt tensioner on the old Sprinter? Those tiny bolts are not fat hands compatible

Less $$ on your paycheck

I suppose cross border won't be happening. Sniff the boxes for your own protection, Grizzly. If it smells like a college party...

A fun pictogram representing the company that bought us out Plus

Union. To be on the super special hot list, you need: 2 million liability 28 days out of 30 available No refusals without documented acceptable reason, like hospital admission And the aforementioned 2 weeks notice for PM, max 3 days bereavement even if your kids or wife die...those are some...

So. I've been taken off expedite. Instead, I now can say yes or no to any delivery as I see fit with no repercussions. It will be more locals but I will be offered the expedite runs when they run out of drivers. I won't get the 400 mile run that never has a backhaul, unless absolutely...
