    I was thinking the same thing. Why can't people just do their own research? I smell a troll.

    Amen.

    Like I said above. They are a dime a dozen on this site. Seems everyday a new one shows up who bought a truck and now wants to know what's next. Or what broker has the highest paying freight...

    Never ending nonsense...


    I wonder how many people open a restaurant today and then go to culinary school tomorrow?

    We watched that when it aired in 2013 and it was the only time I remember the hype of the promos were mellow compared to the actual show

    By the way I have met a fleet owner from Detroit who makes Amy and samy look like mother Teresa and the pope. I have hired a few drivers from his company because of the pure evil this guy and his wife are towards their drivers.

    Although the OP is a light load member, she has been here for over 1 1/2 years. The threads she has started have shown she really does not know much about the trucking industry. But some of the questions she asked here really are more hands on type questions, like "how do we get paid?" and "how should we pay our contractors?". You can't really Google those questions.
     
    Louisiana Gearjammer Thanks this.

    Well all that has been covered time and time again on this site. Along with numerous other sources.

    The current state of the 2019 trucking industry has been talked about over and over on this site along with several news media outlets calling it a "Trucking Bloodbath" But she still wants in...

    And like you said the threads she has started show she doesn't know much about the trucking industry... So why get herself involved?

    Are you guys getting your own authority now or have you had your Authority for a while?

    I think what's throwing everyone off is that your terminology is not correct.

    If you can explain your situation a little more clearly, I'm sure that someone will be able to help you.

    Do I need a printer in my truck?
    I can sign documents on my phone or computer just not sure if I need a printer for anything.
