    That's why the lay is what it is get u to run ragged . I myself like to think smart and run smart . That why guys like you give this industry a bad name . But I'd like get payed what I'm worth not b payed with money that all ready mine at the end of the year . .32 a mile not the .24 smile and use the other that's mine all ready to pay me but I see I'm deal with part of the no brain group. Ya if I work in the office and new you were getting screwed and I could make money of u running like a dumb ### . For cheap wages I'd b nice to you to . O ya I got nother job in orlando that pays whole lot better then here .54 smile yanking a tank all miles not air plane miles like Irt pays . Plus demerge time 17.00 $ an hour and break down time . Plus hotel exspenes including food. . O ya they don't use my money that coming to me at the end of the year cuz there a real company . World wide company .

    I'm sure they appreciate you "running ragged" as you put it while they pay you nothing.......you'll learn, after you realize how bad they are taking advantage of you..

    The guy who road tested me down there said the older ones do 75 like Giants already said, the guy said he was in a new truck had it for about 6 months and said it only did 65....
