mercer transportation

Thats kinda what i am looking at. Even at minimum wage i can make $300/wk which is more then i have been making andliving on the road for weeks at a time

 

GO MERCER!!!!!

 

Go mount your tires son.

 

i was hoping things would pick up by now but doesnt seem to be. I've been in va mt for 2 days. Everything does seem to be short or to texas or west coast. Also for an irritating rate. I think its about time for me to make that move.

 

LMAO!!!!!!

 

I knew we could count on you to bring back the moral! Hey Bayou, pour me some more koolaid!

 

Oscar ,At least if you work local and there is no work you're at home. Dump trucking or what ever....

I will say that short haul rates suck right now too.......

I like my cool aid on the rocks .

 

The only local work to be had in nw IA is side dump (cheaper than cheap) grain hauling (cheaper than side dump) and hogs going to market, the hogs pay good, but the hours are crazy and the days are like 26 hours long, been there done that.

 

well, dont know what to say, just dropping off one and picking up another. did a load to outside amarillopicked up friday , unloaded and reloaded at same place, returned to ga wed, picked up a oversize pipe load in ga same day, to norfolk, delivered thurs., picked up fri in va beach and del to gainesville florida mon. went by home for the weekend also, picked up monday in thomasville, ga to erie pa , delivered today in erie and picking up in lorain, oh for houston tommorow morning to deliver in houston saturday morning. the tx turn was 1.99 a mile with 8,000 pounds each way, the ga to va o/s was 2.74 on 13,000 , the load fl was 1.80 but was 5,000 pounds, the erie load was 1.96 for 34,000 pounds and the houston is 2.11 on 34,000 . will update on what i reload out of tx.

me i am a happy man. and for real right now sitting near lorain ,ohio and i swear to god, i am drinking cherry kool-aid , yeah baby, life is good.

 

I am going to change up my whole strategy and try something a little different and see what happens before I just give up. I have always done very well here, maybe I'm just getting a little to set in my ways and need to take a different approach at this, time will tell.
