    I do enjoy Shiner Bock. I love that Western North Carolina has so many Small Craft places to sample... Hoping to enjoy it during some home time at some point... But with a family wedding coming up in April, it will have to wait.

    I have fairly good luck just calling and asking permission to park on their lot... Many say yes without hesitation... even ones with those signs.

    I used to be paid bi weekly. Loved those big checks! We went to weekly, doesn't seem the same.

    I saw one company promoting daily pay... I would hate that... Keeping track of what's been paid every day... Ugh... Weekly or biweekly is fine... All my bills are monthly so I prefer biweekly.

    Just my opinion . As a company or owner op driver you get paid to deliver . For nothing else really . Cash flow is the key to a good contract . Deliver , they get paid , you get paid . No reason to hold your money . You should be in on the pay from the rate quote to the dock

    If I hire a contractor to build a deck on my house I have to pay along the way for so much of the project completed . Same thing . Companies that hold two weeks do so for their cash flow . They invest that payroll they hold . That extra week is earning them interest
