    Well back to coils apparently. Been a little minute since Ive hauled coils. Missed suicide coils. Well see when I get loaded... Precision Strip is backed up apparently. Running almost 3 hours behind.

    not necessarily i think it evens out depending on how you come in coming in with a cdl it varies 30-40k on the reefer side (2mnths +) and it should be 2mnths or so on the fb side personally i avg 2500-3000/wk hope this helps

    hey IP hes just getting a flash back from the reefer days...plus is a steel shipper u expect to wait

    Well... OK. Been waitin' on the flashbacks myself - for 40 years. Nothin' like a free "high," eh? But somewhere I recall this story about the flatbed guys never waiting. Hmmm....

    Maybe Dr. Leary was just spreading some Bravo Sierra after all! :biggrin_2559:

    ...one pill makes you smaller, another makes you tall. And the one's that mother gives you don't do anything at all!
