    A thousand dollar day at 5 loads? it will be right around 24 hours to do this legally.

    You will need that at the dentist. Ha. If it was not a dental emergency push through and get the 5 done.

    So sorry you did not get all 20. Would have been a 5000 dollar week.
     
    6wheeler Thanks this.

    it is simple, I have a pair of pliers and a fifth of rum which will take care of any dental problem - work comes first.

    I would have skipped the dentist too, if I had committed myself to the task. The reality is that in the long run, sooner or later something would come up anyway. A solo owner, also such as me, can't promise any long term commitment requiring any regularity.

    When you bite more than you can chew, you end up at the dentist.
    Sorry couldn’t resist.
