    That's what I don't understand...... Why is it that if one person fails or breaks even or it doesn't seem beneficial or don't make sense to one person.......he/she bashes the idea of another person cus that person sees a good reason to try it or give it a shot........both company and o/o has its goods & bads.....its all about the end result......everybody can't take the same path to their vision of success.....life is about risk n choices.......but its about what works for YOU......yeah one may ask who am I and why I'm posting.......posting cus my hats off to the ones who are IC and the ones who tried....whether they had success or failed......hey you tried.......it can't kill you.....but it gives you knowledge about both sides.....ones who don't try it shouldn't rain on another's parade.... If u scared to try it or see no plus for you......so be it......but a man isn't wrong for going IC or signing a lease with any company......his dream his life....your dream your life......it doesn't mix.....what I eat don't make you Sugar Honey Ice Tea.........I know this not my post and sorry Sadwar.....just kills me when others knock another person for trying! And yes I'm going IC on Monday......walking on faith!

    What I think is funny is last week I grossed $2550. This week I gross $1000. I already have loads booked on me through Monday that will net me another $2000 plus check next week. I'll take that, my freedom, my APU, and my truck any day over being a company driver. Not saying being a company driver is bad, after all I did it for 16 months. Different strokes for different folks....
