    Neither do I but .46/mile x 2,500 miles/wk = $59,800. That's a 30% raise.

    @ .46 CPM I would drive the truck to the closest ocean and I would make sure it sunk! I bearly get out of bed for less than .51.

    When I drove with Crete I met an old driver in Wilmer, TX who hated driving winters and just decided he wasn't going to do it anymore. He bought a boat near Houston and took a leave of absence for three months in winter to sail the gulf of Mexico. I thought that was one of the more brilliant ideas I've come across.

    Got windshield fixed and now I’m ready. It was cracked. Sent in a load request but no response. Sent in a message but no response.
    It’s been 2 hrs. This is the part where I don’t care. I’ll wait another 30 minutes then I’ll sit till Monday.

    can’t just wait wait wait and stare at this people’s net. Netflix and I’ll order a pizza till Monday. Maybe go Uber out because I’m downtown Chicago.

    And still nothing. I’m not a sucker or needing the money. So now I sit and turn off people’s net.
    I don’t play games!
    With no reply as well.
