    Best advice, and you'll see it here more than once..

    Don't go into business with family or friends.

    You’re correct, I have had some 137,000 auto issues but I’ve never had auto issue change my routes that I requested I wasn’t aware it could change them. Auto issue happens when the route you requested passed analysis.

    Beat me to it. Very rarely does it work out, usually before it's all over with you either lost a friend or a family member.

    Oh trust me I understand that. But I did it with the intention of relieving a burden from them. My mom is my only immediate blood relative left and I want to live the life she wants.

    No, I edited my last statement. It all depends on the girl I get at my permit service. I always tell them to verify the routes they pick before submitting the request.
