    I know drivers that have been with Cardinal Logistics for 10-15 yrs. and doing really good, otherwise would not have stayed for so long. Paid for all miles; loaded or empty.

    There's also:

    I do not endorse or recommend any carrier for a lp. I advise you do your own research and come up with a list that best fits you. Or you can just troll and read all sorts of threads from people doing it .

    I got a memory foam mattress pad for the truck and I'm trying it out for the first time tonight. It already feels better than before.
    I came out of the house with a plan to grab a load from holland that goes to Bruce MS.
    I grab it and tell them , being 761 miles, it will be tomorrow afternoon around 3pm .
    They tells me it's gots to be there before noon.
    I says you should have had it covered Saturday then.
    Ill get there when I get there.
    Trucks are locked in at 65, last I checked, I can't do that many miles in one trip.
    I find it funny how I cover an already late load, and am expected to perform as if I was to blame for the late arrival. Oh well.
    Have safe night, might get slick out there in spots.

    Just call the receiver, let them know when you were told to be there and you want to confirm.. Let them know whey YOU CAN be there and ask if there will be any problems. I have done this several times and it always helps my case, regardless of what broker says. I would still do it, even though you use a dispatcher.

    Two of 3 of the kids at home have had a bout with the flu. One girl went for braces today. Luckily everyone was healthy to go to school today, otherwise my wife would have had a carload to take to traverse city.
    Im still waiting for my back haul. Hope it's soon

    Not good being sick on the road. Luckily I made it home last week before I got sick (if you want to call it luck) I hate being sick.

    Drink more water than you think you should. Yes, you might have to stop more, but your body needs it to fight whatever is going on. And by 'water,' I mean water. Not energy drinks or soda pop. W. A. T. E. R. But don't gulp it or drink a gallon at a time. Drink small amounts often.
