    unfortunately there are many mfrs who pretend they own their business and live life like millionaires and when #### like this happens , they work like slaves , for nothing !!! because they have to pay for what is not theirs. And we as real independent o/o pay for their FkUPs
    I parked my truck and I’m working as a handy man and I’m making more money doing that then hauling loads for 1.30

    Yup, i took my 6yr old to work the quarry last week. Rather stack rocks than sit in a peelot for free.
