    Only two all day.
    Was offered a trip to Arizona. But it picked up 3pm today and delivered in Arizona by 5pm tomorrow. Yeah right.
    Was offered a trip up to Dallas.
    But I have nearly a full tank with absolutely no way to get any more before Monday.
    So I have an 8am pickup at the Air Conditioner store going to La Marque.

    Now I could just SWEAR that I responded to this post. But it ain't here????[​IMG]

    Anyway, what I wanted to say Dave, is that I hear you and know where you are coming from. Unfortunately, sometimes we just have to do what it takes to put food on the table, and pay the bills.
    Have you thought about local LTL?
     
    Vilhiem, Rocks and chopper103in Thank this.

    I really hope move to a better place Dave... your company really SUCKS... I know you know that... and like Mr. BD said, sometimes we have to get out of our "comfort zone" (which is not very comfortable after all), face the "fear", count on faith and make es.... Wish you well... :biggrin_25519:
