    I rarely reject anything. If it's not productive and can be tcalled, I try to get that arranged. Sometimes it just can't be, but then I at least get a really nice load preplanned for my next load. It all works out in the end, I don't let much stress me out. I probably get more long runs as backups to my short runs than I would get otherwise, never really know.

    DANGER, WILL ROBINSON, DANGER,.................

    Anyone coming thru Manchester, TN this weekend, be ready for major traffic issues...it's time to Bonnaroo. The scale and the parking areas have been coned off and every exit between Monteagle and west of Manchester have the plastic barriers and cones at the ready...and signs at every exit saying 'event traffic use shoulder'.

    It's because drivers are an expendable commodity and cubicle dwelling office rats are considered 'Managers' and not expendable.

    Freight slowdown in dry van and reefer. O/O’s going under. Probably trying to make profit by assigning short hauls to OTR as some kind of “hack”

    I wanna see you pay bills on that 50k “salary” of theirs. Good blue collar money and good white collar money are very very different.
