    Well though I agree, I’m thinking if they go that route, it might break the bank. I mean, really, even in these tough times, they still have a net profit every quarter.

    No. That truly wouldn’t be a happy experience. He’d start swimming over to England.

    Can’t wait until July 20th. That’s the day the 2nd quarter financials are being released of our parent company, Knight/Swift Holdings. Can’t wait to see how much they earned and what their net profit was.

    Outstanding. This, is what is hired at a cut rate CPM. Dude hit a tree at a Tampa BH distributor. One that I’ve been to a number of times. The first thing you notice coming down the street? The tree 020DF14D-6482-4FE2-A145-AB25CD8E6567.jpeg

    Too many of these companies hire idiots and then complain about their cost soaring because of crap like this having to repair senseless damage like this..they have nobody to blame but themselves..lower standards equate to this garbage.
