    Never claimed to be, and I even said that I guarantee half of everyone here wouldn't want my job either. Working for a smaller outfit comes with more responsibility. But in my case, lucky for me it pays off in the end and is much more rewarding than a vague thank you.

    You merely gave an example of what you ran last week, I gave you an example of what I run nearly every week. Nothing more.

    Here's another shocker, 15 years ago I worked for Millis Transfer for 17 months. I even stated before that If I was desperate enough, I would have still considered them for a job. I can't comment on things that are going on there recently, But I do know some of what I'm talking about.

    I do alot of work for Miller/ Coors outbound from Milwaukee to nebraska , Iowa, Missouri and kansas .
    Some pays very well and some so so ...millis does all the shag work at Milwaukee and was somewhat concerned about how this might affect me so I asked my Wisconsin dispatcher today how this may affect us and rates .
    His answer was " not in the least bit we've been in Miller's since the 30s and Miller still runs the show " .

    If Miller gets fed up enough with heartland's bottom of the barrel drivers, equipment and way of doing business...things could get interesting.


    I doubt if Miller/Coors will be pushed around, even by a mega carrier.
