    That's been brought up before. My opinion is it's a non starter. 3POs is where the future is going, which will continue to drive rates down.

    It's unfortunate, but unless something is done to stop the mid to large size companies from going after cheap, imported labor, freight rates will continue to slide. The only way to support the price is to cut supply or create demand. And unless this "driver shortage" nonsense is put to rest (it won't be), supply will continue to outweigh demand.

    I know a guy who has a pit in his shop. He falls in it more than he actually needs it.

    Oh yeah, it's been brought up plenty. Hence my quote of his " brand new " approach. It's far from brand new.

    I agree.

    Can you make a video like that of Six's bartender ?
    Six is probably out working and you should really keep both hands on the camera so it's steady. Don't worry, I'll lend a lifting hand.
    Uh .... Helping hand.
    Yeah.
    That's what I meant.

    Yeah you gotta pick a spot out of the way and cover it up.

    There are SOME people around here that like to partake in a adult beverage every so often.

    Nother little piece of advice....don't put metal ceiling fans in a shop with low clearance....

    There's a picture shows up in my mirror every morning that's a good reminder.
