    each and every day is a good day. none of these things are really my concerns, just the truth, and warnings to people. if you wanna run around with blinders on, good for you. ill take a shoebox with a $1,000 in it over giving my money away for no reason. I bet your 3 kids would be able to figure out what to do with an extra $1,000 a year, and probably pretty upset if they knew their dad gave their money to atbs.
    happy trails to you and hopefully you will see the big picture before something bad happens.

    oh yeah, when and if you finish out your lease give ARROW some extra money and tell your company to keep a few extra bucks out of every settlement too!

    So, what was the big change with roadrunner as far as pulling broker loads?? I use to be leased to RR before they became big and just curious. Matter fact RR was just starting a brokerage dept when I was there. I remember I was in LA area on a Monday after delivering terminal load to Commerce. I was looking for a load on getloaded but couldn't find one. So I call brokerage to see if they could find me something. He called me around noon on Monday with a load going to Winston salem NC but, I had to be there Thursday 8am.......RR tried to convince me that I should make it ok LOL......I did the load yes....I was 30 miles west of Winston(Mocksville) Wednesday afternoon....

    So did you just run straight across? No sleeper? What route out of L.A.? I-10 out? Or I-40? Must have been 10 then up to 40?
