    Wow...

    Far be it for me to play the part of "Internet Grammar Police" and or English Composition Police, but...

    That was about impossible to read and understand. Just for kicks I copied and pasted that into MS Word and used the word count tool. 203 words and except for the exclamation marks 10 words in from the beginning (That due to the way they were used and no capitalization after really don't even count as actual punctuation) there was not a single punctuation mark anywhere. That makes (at best) a single sentence of 193 words all run on and jumbled together.

    Even totally ignoring the lack of punctuation and structure and TRYING to break it down and understand it there are numerous disjointed thoughts and use of incorrect words and mis-spellings that make it all but impossible to truly understand what the author was tying to say.

    I don't really expect a post to meet the requirements and quality of a college essay but guys we really need to do a better job of communicating than this. Especially if we expect to be taken seriously as professionals and expect to be paid as a professional.

    Taken seriously????
    Pull into any Truck Stop in the US and view a sampling of what is on the road today in a semi.
    It's pathetic.

    Its ashamed your just fiquiring it out. i havent hauled a full load of theres in 7 years. maybe a pov thats it,with or without a boycott alot of people with truck companies,and new truck payments will be going out of business, then rates go up. every thing that is happening to the bigger companies is self inflicted,the dummies keep cutting each others throats,if they were smart they would all get together and give high bids and share the work between each other, making back hauls way easier. kind of what the big truck stops are doing ,instead of competeing there controlling the market
