    Its looking like it so far..

    I did kinda set a pretty hight goal for less then a year of experience , but I figure whats the point of setting a goal that you know will be easily achievable.

    Work week will be sunday to thursday .
    So either sunday morning till thursday morning , or leave in the afternoon on sunday and get back Thursday around lunch. Kinda digging that part.....

    Now he did say that most guys do 4 loads a week , and that it gets busy sometimes and a 5 th one will get pushed on the trucks . Question tho. Does that sound good or bad load wise ? 4 a week


    Oh, and every once in a while there is a farmer down the road they help out with hauling cattle but its very rare he said.

    Every time I scroll down and see this "Parked here for the night", I can't help but think that ya'll are looking to hook up. I've heard that straight men can smell a woman from 10 trucks down, men seeking men simply tap their brakes in a sequence that I have yet to define, and those looking for a lizard or 3 use the CB or walk the lot looking for a straggler w/ mouth sores. Does anyone actually meet up for civilized activities?

    We do 5 most of the time, used to do 6 when they worked Saturday but haven't done that for a while now. All our stuff is short tho, 200 loaded mile stuff. Guess it depends on how far you are goin. Sounds like they try to keep ya busy with other loads IF needed but sounds like they have a pretty good deal with their pigs. I will take steady money year round over hit and miss loads ANYTIME !!!
