    As an O/O have your ever crunched the big numbers, are you driving for free? I think company drivers with zero overhead should be at an honest one dollar per mile? With your own truck an honest 3 dollars per hour but i would bet you are paying them to haul frieght?

    I've been on a number of forums over the years and everyone of them has had a few different trolls here and there. It's usually quite entertaining. You sir are just getting bit old.

    To answer your question I'm sure there are quite a few people who loose their ###. Could be a bit of bad luck or worse case scenario a person who had no business savy. That being said just a simple search and you would see a number of guys here hustling.

    Ya like to joke around a little, call it what you want. Truth is your all making less money, putting in twice the work as the rest of the country. Now you crunch them numbers like a good little boy then tell us all what a guy with comercial insurance and one hundred thousand dollars worth of equipment is worth per mile? Go now and come back with some numbers.

    You're crazy. Not many professions where you can bring home 100k without an expensive college degree. And if working harder means looking out the window at the scenery while I jabber on the phone or chill listening to my XM radio, then yea I'm pretty overworked. :confused:
