    I was delivering to a AFB a couple weeks ago. Asked for identification. I handed him my TWIC card and he said they won’t take them as identification anymore.

    Huh?

    First time I used it I got paid full day rate to drive across town empty and pull a load into a base for a driver because I had a card and they wouldn’t let the other guy on without a TWIC!!!

    wTF?

    Well we got empty here in Utah. Nothing coming out that would work out the way I needed it to. Some good paying loads but all going to areas where east bound freight is scarce.

    So ended up booking one for Friday out of Fort Bliss. Yep, 906 mi DH. Gonna start working that way this evening. Be in El Paso by tomorrow night.

    My god I have seen a bunch of 150 mile flatbed loads for 300 bucks. One for 400 with twic or 50 permit. I bet they ain't paying the permit. Who hauls this trash? 300.00 really that might get me there!
