    The last time I saw soo many abandoned buildings was when I was in Detroit.
    That whole area around Valliant is one sad place...

    Hey I did get to see something new for a change, never been to Jackson, Mississippi either till now.
    Helps me feel better about my pay cut lol

    I was down there last week, delivered to the post office. Stayed at the flying J down there and actually felt bad for not helping out the nasty sweaty guy that wanted to sweep out my trailer to make some beer money, at least he was honest about the need. Had I not already swept it out in the sweltering 110* heat I probably would have let him go at it but I already tempted fate doing it I'm not going to pay for someone to do it again. Bounced down 50 miles southeast of there in the middle of nowhere and picked up a load of mailboxes for one of our normal accounts, no clue what it paid and it doesn't really help your situation but it ups my post count.

    I've hauled hauled both hazmat and non hazmat tote loads requiring a tanker endorsement with Schneider.

    I dropped my hazmat when I moved though, the extra headache isn't worth an extra $25.

    Aren't you a company driver though? I never see tote loads on the load board.
    They do suck (heavy and wishy washy lol).. only one time in my oh almost 2 years of driving have I pulled a tote load.
    That happened when it was like my second week of driving and in Oregon.
