    Read an interview a few months ago with a lady cab driver in Las Vegas. She was asked about the strangest things she's seen with her customers. She said, "Chinese women wearing those short dresses and no panties." That's pretty much the norm for them in warm weather.

    I started in 2005 and I have never driven for less then 45 cpm. You do not have to take the offer that an employer gives you. You can ask for more money.

    It's summer time. I have teva's. No problem so far. I do keep extra shoes in the truck. I keep a pair of sneakers and boots.

    Agree about US EXPRESS. After watching some of their drivers they can't be too strict with their road test.
     
    BostonTanker Thanks this.

    Roehl is considered a mega and pays .35 cents a mile for newbs in dry van and .37 in refer. Plenty of companies pay over .28 a mile

    I did a 34 at Mortons travel Plaza in North Vegas once. Still dream about the food at the Mexican restaurant there...
