    Easy there, I'm a company driver as is saddlesore and you can bet your ### we care what we haul, what the company gets paid for hauling, tarping, detention, loading, unloading and the list goes on. If my company isn't getting paid what they should then it doesn't go on my truck. Money wise doesn't make a tinkers #### to me, most loads I get paid either by the day or mile but I'm not doing anything for free, either myself or my company!

    I get paid a heck of a lot more than that just as a company driver, let alone what the company itself is making. I wouldn't sit for $200 a day salary let alone if I owned the truck.

    It is a stainless tank covered with paper and the two layers of heavy plastic wrap. I don't know WHY they wanted it tarped, but they paid us very well to do it, let us tarp it inside the 61 degree building with their overhead crane and my company sent two guys to help me.
     
    SHC and MJ1657 Thank this.

    That's a good deal. We were inside as well,plus they shrink wrapped it before tarping.
    No I unchained my tag. Not my wife.
    But I did like that comment...

    Could of changed my pin setting, but allready had permits ordered and it would of changed my length overall

    Just got back from the local animal rescue here in town. Wife heard they found a litter of puppies under a railroad viaduct with the mother. So this is Chloe and we will be bringing her home with us on Friday. I'm lucky I escaped with only 1 because I almost took all 10 !!!

    Love dogs. Was at the TA in Baytown a couple weeks ago...had a driver walk in with a service dog, a Chow. He'd train service dogs for 6-8 months and then send them to people with special needs. That Chow was a great dog. Got Mom a Rat Terrier when she was recovering from cancer. Good house dog, but it has to be the most cowardly dog Ive ever seen.

    Almost dropped $7500 today. Went driving around town and went by the Yamaha dealer saw that Yamaha Bolt. I guess I need to hurry up and leave the house before I spend money.
