    Big letters. Bleah. So boring.

    Everything they sprinkle sunshine and skittles on is a source of contention and BS inside that outfit. Emphasize the marble in rome but ignore the #### under the feet.

    Half the stuff is unnecessary. You have a say a 1980 Superliner Mack with the V8 format engine laying around? No? Sorry.

    That truck will take a while with deliveries, but is old and slow like I am. No stress. You follow me?

    Cartel Trucking is a much better outfit. They offer a 50k sign on bonus. And you only have to drive 2 or 3 times a month. But the penalty for being late is decapitation!!!!!

    Funny thing.
    The more outlandish these ads become the more that drivers will believe them.
    I mean a sales pitch that touts a big vented door front and back..I had to chuckle.

    These ads are like that on purpose. Like poorly spelled fishing emails, they are selecting for stupid applicants. The more exclamation points the lower the expectations.

    Likewise with posting frequency, like Doordash. CL has a nifty little checkbox "bundle duplicates", which makes them just one ad.

    Craigslist is the worst for that crap. I saw my land Rover (d110 rhd so I know it was mine) listed for sale on almost every Craigslist east of the Mississippi, I wonder how many people respond to it? All poorly spelled and with dumb #### in the ad...abs, leather, power wheels etc...power wheels ehhhh and abs with leather....the thing is more tractor than truck so sure lol. I have not went on Craigslist for like a year now because you can't trust anything on it unfortunately. It sucks for the legitimate people posting a job or selling something because they all look like ######## now just by using that platform.

    If there were no idiots Uber and Lyft wouldn’t be filling their pockets with poor people’s money while skirting the law by calling it a “ride share”.
