    Yes, I failed to mention expense ratios. I don't work for Vanguard, but am a very happy customer. Expense ratio varies, depending on the fund. A (Vanguard) fund I use has a 0.05% expense ratio. So a $10,000 IRA may have $525 in total annual fees. Compared to several employer-sponsored 401(k) plans, the selection and low costs of VG are very favorable. But the free money from employer-matched contributions make some 401(k) plans well worth higher costs/less selection.

    You know you love that heavy gatorpiss loaded on a reefer trailer, so you can do some free labor by taking it back to have some taken off. Its happened to me, my last 3 loads out of there. Im pretty sure everyone gets the message about the do not prefer reefers there, but last time i was there, it has more reefer trailers there then Boars Head...smh. But, you know how truck drivers are

    What pisses me off is the guy that I switched trailers with in Sparks brought me a trailer where you can't slide the tadems,because the buttons broke.Trailer needed a washout,and it was only filled half way on fuel,which don't mind that part to bad more points for me.

    Oh yeah this was a 'team' smh,will have to get the trailer fixed before dropping it,because you know I try to look out for my fellow driver.

    Teams dont care about anyone but themselves. Heck, they dont even care about their truck, because they know in a years time, they will get a brand new one again. Sorry bout your luck, and thank you from all of us for getting it fixed.
     
    KD5AXG, DrummingTrucker and Finfn1372 Thank this.

    The drivers take the reefers there because that's where they were told to take them.

    I guess I'm the only one who gets the message about the loads being heavy and that Gatorade does not prefer reefers. Doesn't make since though to drop one in there, then the next driver wastes hours by having to go back because he/she is overweight. But, whatever you say
