    Well back in Okc. after my quick trip to Atl. on a plane.
    Darn drivers license was coming up for renewal.
    Was to move some rigs this week and next week, so I booked a ticket to get my lic. done.
    Then the rigs got pushed back and screwed things all up.
    Now my rig does not go untill next week. Trying to find something to fill in the gap.
    Lost the Wy. rig as they want the more exp. guys to do the Oh. rig.They both now go within 1 day of each other.
    Then the rig from Pa. got moved up to today.
    So I lost that move back.
    I love trking..

    Still in Tucson.....

    Can't decide whether to flip my axle an head to LA or sit here doing nothing or
    Move up to Phoenix and hang out at my buddies pool.

    I have only worked 3 days in July so feeling the pressure a little.

    right now, kinda fighting with a broker on a stretch ld. going to Tx..
    We are basicly right on top of it, and they seem to think I should haul it for reg. rate..

    Waits any longer and my rate will go up more.
    Was told they all ready sent in 2 trks. and they can't ld. the ld..
    They post it as hot hot.. But they want to pay freezer rates. Yuck'em

    I am and will. Called on another stretch ld. basicly a little lighter, but same length. 3 k. He thought that was great money.
    Plus that one going to the port in Houston and it's a trk. more of a pain to ld..

    Strewth!

    Once they know they can book you for cheap, you will have a difficult time seeing the higher end pay.

    Called on a wheel loader going to Houston.. only like 50k. 480 miles and they were offering 1300. on it.
    Yea let me get right on that.
    Another broker had it posted also. He said right off the bat his rate was to high and the shipper was hoping the other broker can get it moved.
    I asked him what he bid. He said 2450.. I said real close. He called the shipper. Nope still wanting to move it for nothing
