    Are you sure you didn't turn the primary cooling system off that starts the auto destruct?

    Ran into a dude that deadhead 450 miles on a $150 TONU just so he wouldn't screw up his week.

    I thought, 'man, I wouldn't do that '.
    But, I guess everyone runs what they think is right for them.

    Right for them might be a case of living up to their business commitments for all the following loads.

    Fortunately the load cancellations I had were filler loads that basically paid to relocate the truck to a better freight lane. Money on the next load more than paid for the deadhead.

    He was doing a survey to see about upgrading the speed limit on that road, such a nice guy for taking the time from his busy schedule to do that in the name of safety.

    I am going to DH 400 miles home in the morning.. my reload this afternoon “fell through”
    Tx rates are horrible rightnow, seen one as low as $1.14 mile, it would be going 80 miles from my house, but I cant make myself haul their cheap load so they can make a cadillic payment while laughing on the way to bank

    I should add.. I hope my boss don’t fire me.. I hear he is kind of a pain to work for..

    Wait a minute. I better hope I don’t find out about this insubordination, I may have to take punitive action against myself
