    Bro this is an absolutely BRUTAL pay cut. You're losing over $200 a week! It's a complete douche move of them to just cut like that. Absolutely crazy!

    I guess you can keep hauling that .72/mile freight, then...at 43000 lbs...and over 1000 miles.

    You apologists are the reason they get away with it. Or, do I have that wrong? Are you one of those asinine parasites?

    I don’t think @Oxbow is pulling .72 mile freight. I would stop embarrassing myself in public…

    You wanted into the trucking business. Now you are. The business is what it is.
    Right now we're in a down cycle. If you can't handle it, get out and do something you like better.

    The problem is the majority of these “Owner operators” have never seen a down cycle. They believed the rates during the pandemic were the “new normal”.
