But NO ONE wants the rates to go there. This industry is suffering at the hand of people that regularly bid 70-90 CPM total rate. And I mean regularly. Not the Laredo, KC, Dallas, etc exceptions. But all the bids. When 75 cpm is the norm, this industry is screwed. And bad. As most do, we try...

Yeah. $500 for two is NOT the same as the insurance we have. Insurance costs a small fortune. Ok, maybe a medium fortune. But if one is to be insured to the proper levels and the levels that the industry wants, suck it up Buttercup. Swim with the big fish or GET OUT OF THE WATER.

Very good! We'll cross that bridge. At least you KNOW we'll work around ANYTHING the doc says. You know this business. You know better or as well as we do. We work for you. Not vice-versa. [emoji106][emoji106]

My guess is they look at it as a comparison of jobs. Work a register at a convenience store. Maybe $400. Flip burgers. Maybe $350. Clean construction sites. Maybe $400-600. Wash cars. Maybe $350-$450. Run a c/v or older Sprinter or yellow for 60-70 cpm and spend 40-50 cpm operating...

The LS offices seem to approve and pay at different rates. We have not experienced them as being fast payers. And we don't go for the "keep a little more of our money to pay us faster" method. Not saying you are. Just that we are not.

Best wishes with it!! Don't forget to breathe. A lot!!

Yes, we either run directly for all of those (9 of the listed) and indirectly for the other 2.

There ya go. And Stu is a year out. [emoji53][emoji53]

I don't doubt it. My limited knowledge of Sylectus requirements was right at the end of Stu's reign. I'm sure just about everything at Sylectus has changed. Yes, I read EVERY email notifying members of new carriers brought on board. I won't elaborate. But I read them all. I don't go to...

Be careful with all those laptops!!

Haven't seen the current requirements but last I heard it was a 10 truck minimum. They charge a flat fee plus a per-unit charge. There are still plenty of carriers on Sylectus with fewer than 10 units but they qualified back when the minimum was either 5 or 1, depending on how many years...

We'll have to get a small rider. I'm to lazy to walk a 1/2 acre. LOL!!

Lower level family room. Will have my a/v system (with projector) that's been in boxes in the garage for 4 years. And we'll add a bat, too. Of course. [emoji482][emoji482] Looking forward to it. 4th bedroom off to the right of that room.

Thanks JuJu. That's about 2-3 times the kitchen Sally has ever had. She's pretty giddy. Now, gotta figure out what to put into a 3100 sq ft house that's over twice as big as our current. I'm sure Sally will figure out something. Maybe we should build some of that new "pallet furniture". LOL!!

We close Sept 30th. We found a '79 model split level in a much better school district. It's only 5 miles from here. Only 4.7 miles from the J in Vandaia. It's in Butler Twp, and in the Vandalia school district. The kids (7 & 9) have had great teachers, so far, in the Huber Heights district but...

That's fantastic, Ken! Stay down. Doc's orders, I'm sure.

Sounds yum!!

Yes. He needs food. Eggs. Bacon. Toast. Coffee. Doc may disagree, but he needs it. [emoji106]

I just mean you may run into a different set of broker out there. That's all. If it's a new to you broker, include it.

I bet your phone ringer is as high as it can possible go. That's one sweet gig, man. Don't screw that up. Ever. If you do I WILL be right behind you. Sally doesn't NEED me. She's a freight magnet. You better pray, man. Just keep it. Good job!!!
