    It's been a heckuva hard week. Planners are morons. Every load is a friggin' emergency. I'm so tired every night my eyes are crossing. I promise details when I can see straight again. Finally got much needed shower.

    I don't have much good to report right now. It is first week and I'm already getting that uh oh feeling. First of all every single load they gave me was messed up. Scheduled for wrong times. one was actually a whole day late another for after the place closed. One was in Chicago 9am ...nuff said.
    So today I got my settlement for orientation week. No loads on it but charged full boat for weekly plates and toll tag. I was supposed to get 3 days orientation pay and only got 2 and I was quoted $1 a mile to bobtail from Dallas to Lowell and only got $.47.
    Not an auspicious beginning.

    Oh yeah. And the people net is driving me crazy. It yells at me when I'm exceeding the speed limit (who me???) And it comes up with ominous msgs like OCB recording sudden stop. OCB recording following too close (in uphill climb...really?) And here's an oxymoron..too fast acceleration..in a Cascadia? Give me a break.

    Does Dart Transit have a doable lease purchase?

    Every LP is “doable “
    I’m trying to figure out why you are asking on a thread where the OP is doing a JB Hunt LP.
    As with any mega LP, be ready to marry that truck, as it will take all your time and attention

    Yep, any program is doable. Provided the business owner is capable ... shot gunning the internet hoping someone will tell where the best deal is; is a demonstrable lack of capability.

    The door was opened for a question about Dart when the OP said this in her initial post in this thread:

    Sorry. I was living in the “now” . Didn’t search back where it may have been brought up. You have bested me in internet scrolling skills...for now.

    I have a vague memory of useless things and I remembered her saying something, in this thread or yours, about the aforementioned company. I then had to verify it for myself before I brought it to the table. It's currently only 2 pages so it doesn't take much scrolling to find stuff.

    You will be sorely disappointed in the scrolling skills contest....I will let you win and not even put up a fight for supremacy. :mtongue:
