    Also please remember that it is I that doesn't hide behind a screen name in a public forum. You do. But I do have all of your private information, and it can find it's way into a public forum, if I choose to be evil like you.

    Now if you would like to have dialogue with me, please do it in a professional way. If you know how to do that. I haven't witnessed that from you or your husband so far...

    Best wishes to you Jill and Gerald!!!

    Very interesting. I'm guessing the truth is in the middle somewhere, usually the case.

    When we get home I am going to post the check of $112 that reads pay for all loads and "final pay". Explain that if we made the money. By the way we hired a broker to get our paycheck. Work for him and find out who's lieing.

    Two extra fuel stops for driving out of route? That's a lot of wrong way driving!

    Reading the blog brings some light to the story.

    It sounds like you took on too much too quick Gary. You spent your retirement buying as many trucks as you could. It turned out they were money pits and made drivers sit.

    The fueling is nickel and dime probably because money is tight.

    Any prior business experience?


    On the other side you have a less than desirable team thinking they can solve problems with redneck justice. Why ain't they signed on with an established carrier? Why do they think they can delay a delivery so they can go home for Easter? And they just started. Sounds like irresponsibility to me.

    On the brighter side there was a huge frozen pizza sale at our grocery store this week. :)
