Trip Packs in by Tuesday around 4PM and you get paid 9 days later on Thursday morning. You can late scan up to Thursday midnight or even allowed 10 Sunday night scans a year but late scans cost you $12.00 per trip.

From Portland, you can gamble on one of three likely loads. Highest probability will be apples out of the Winasnatchee area, french fries out of a town that I'm drawing a blank on (I-82 exit 90ish) and least likely will be Tyson out of Wallula. Apples likely will go to Houston area, french fries go to Oklahoma, and Tyson goes to Iowa. They may shoot you up to Kent to grab a load of pies (if you have the ability to cook, company store is on the front side, pies are like $2 each! And they are GOOD!!!! I have several in my freezer now. Baking one today...) Pies go to Indiana.

Man all this info is great, but I have to be patient. Can't do anything until September. Just absorbing all this info. Sounds like if I stay out 5-6 weeks keep the left door shut and manage my expenses it should be a good profitable experience. Do I have that right?
