    LOL. I'm interested in seeing how this turns out. My homie hauled ### to landstar about 3 months ago and he's happy they may potentially die. AAA COOPER took his last check lol.

    Monday I did, or at least attempted, my good deed for this year.

    I pulled up in front of a sub shop to deliver an oven, and see one of @KaoMinerva ’s coworkers out of 071 there having some trouble with a skid of tile. I see him trying to finagle a tire jack underneath one side of the skid somehow and thought “what the hell’s going on here?”.

    I hate to see somebody have to go through all that if he can avoid it so I lent a hand. Turns out one of his pallet jack wheels dropped into the lock slot for the trailer door. I tried every trick I could think of to free it. Even with the skid on the floor his jack wouldn’t come out from under it, and worse, the wheel was starting to shred.

    The moral if the story, for you peddle hands that is, is watch that hole under the door. o_O

    Have a question for you long term Estes drivers. With your 401k, besides the 3.5% match, have you ever received any profit sharing? If so, at the end of the annual year?

    I'm thankful for veterans like you. I've had a lot of great guys help me (a rookie) out when I need and ask for it. It's always much appreciated.
