    Last year most of the UPS loads left out around midnight to 1am. And had to spend the evening at their terminal waiting at their call. Run all night, sleep during day.
    Pay is pretty good for power only, but I'm getting to old and lazy for that third shift.

    joecitizen, hope it is fixed.

    my freight has continued to be consistent and am doing well. still got my mile avg at 1.99 for the year on all miles. its not flashy or dramatic. just consistent and steady. my rates on three loads this week were, 2.25, 2.15 and 2.08 . 2250 loaded and 190 empty, total revenue to truck 4815.00. no tarp on any of them
