    Congrats. That's pretty quick turnaround on finding a new job.

    I have a 45 year old sister who has been claiming to not be able to find a job anywhere for the past 2 years since she got a DUI for supposedly having one single drink. Some people like excuses for their irresponsibility, others just do what has to be done.

    Yes. Thanks for asking. My daughter drove to toledo to pick me up. Neither one of us has had more than 4 uncomfortable hours of sleep for week. Can't wait to get in a truck so I can rest!

    I see their big yard in Missouri all the time.
    I think it's on I-57.
    They advertise big time around west Memphis.
    Are they really paying 60. Cpm.
    Or is that for teams.

    Your dead on about sleeping in the truck.
    I go back to work so I can get some good sleep.

    Teams. I actually took a 1cent cut in pay to 44c however, if I am allowed to run the laredo to Detroit corridor steadily, the money will be fine.

    Congrats. I see a lot of TNI's on 35 between Laredo and N. Texas. It looks like they'll keep you running.
