    Good week here too. You know your having a good week when two out of five trailers you have picked up are so new they haven't even had a chance to put one of those silly ratchet handles on it yet.

    I would've been on the phone demanding one of those other loads. I am starting to feel your guys' frustration!

    What's with that first load being 715 pounds though? lol

    I assure you my check engine light would have come on. Snow that's complete BS. But as a team those are good rates. This Schneider deal has gone to crap.

    Be Safe Out There

    I noticed that too. I had gotten there Friday night, and although I didn't have much hope for new loads on a Saturday morning, I still decided to wait to see if anything popped up the next morning.

    I'm sure those loads were there Friday and only appeared after I took that load.

    And by the way, that load was a 100 mile dead head to Topeka. A heavy ### load of dog food to Walmart for a measley $440 bucks. Had I'd known I would've just dead head to Dallas or Chicago.

    Actually had I known, I would've never have taken that Grain Valley load. We've been getting some great paying loads to New England outta that area and that's what I thought I was going to get.

    I have not seen those loads in the team board since I've gotten here.
    Those are solo loads.
    Being they were posted with ready same day pickup up less than 24 hours to be picked up solo side probably couldn't cover them.
    Only times I've done solo loads here is same day pickup days. They never post loads like that far out out in advance because they ain't team loads.

    No the grain valley is team freight. Goes mostly to company trucks. Jeff city is solo. Idk what the two KC loads were.

    The dog food load I took was there Friday.
