    I’ve been following you for years, no matter where you go, you’re never happy. Maybe look in the mirror and do some soul searching. Maybe your burned out on this industry and need to step away for a few months and reboot. Just my .02 cents.

    Man, you are probably a real good person, but your narcissistic attitude toward everyone and every issue you have is beyond belief. I don’t know you but have followed you postings for quite some time and have mixed emotions about your dramas. Again, I don’t know you but I can assure you God is not singling you out to mess with for the fun of making your life miserable, (He’s got other more important matters to attend to), all of that is on you. Everyone of us has our problems to overcome. You need to find you some other line of work with a lesser stress value, and get you some professional help. Just because the world seems upside down to you, (and it’s not nearly perfect in my assumption), doesn’t mean it is, you seriously need to look in the mirror. I never comment on someone’s personal issues but this is a never ending warmed over saga that’s thrown on you every time this thread of yours is opened. You can get mad and sling mud at me if you must for your egos sake, but I’m done following Snackbars adventures as you don’t demonstrate having a positive bone in your body. I come to TTR several times a day for fun and enjoyment. If this is all for entertainment value, I get it. If not, I truly hope you find some peace somewhere because you need it!

    I don't think this thread is an accurate reflection of his daily life. Snack has a great sense of humor and tons of knowledge and common sense about solving problems. I assume he doesn't post everything that goes smooth in a day because that would be boring as heck. I enjoy reading his stories because I can totally relate to the crazy problems that seem to pop up out of nowhere. Compare trucking to almost any other industry and the turnover rate is insanely high. So he's not alone in his trials and tribulations. He's a survivor.

    I think he would thrive in something even more specialized than flatbed: like extreme hazmat, driving equipment for an entertainment superstar, NFL trucks, transporting ultra luxury vehicles, or other positions that can only be obtained through personal referrals or connections.

    At Moore he was happy until they were bought out. Even if he had a bad day, it was no big deal. Once they got bought, went to ####

    Yea i was gonna say earlier that some read a little too much realism into what is sometimes posted on here. I've always looked on it more as a community where we try to lift each other up. An for you @supersnackbar , for real man simply just hang in there. It's not like you've not weathered ups an downs before. An from what I've always heard about SPD, the rewards will be worth the patience.

    Sure, but Moore was bankrupt, that should tell you all you need to know about how they operate..

    Sure hope they found you something today. I know Monday’s can be a bit slim when it comes to loading trucks.

    PeopleNet would be a deal breaker for me before I went past the investigation stage. Too many complaints, too much BS. Good luck SSB.
