    I hope you are not with CRST. They will do anything they can to keep you from getting another trucking job.

    Wish I would have invested my life savings in bitcoin afew months ago because it has more than doubled since then.

    Think it hit 34k as of recently.

    Funny enough I mined bitcoin back in 2011 when it was like .05 cents a coin. Ended up using my crappy 5750 radeon to make 1/4 coin. Lost password or whatever to my bitcoin wallet. Wished I had it when it peaked a few years ago at 16k a coin. Oh well.

    Always wondered what pulling double tankers feels like, I'd imagine the potential for accidents from the surge of the liquid is even greater......

    Bitcoin is going no where.
    It has skid 26% in the last two days.
    It was a scam from the start and will be dead in 2021

    Dealing with farmers & ranchers is much different than dry van or reefer customers.
    Same with hazmat tankers; chemical plant employees I've dealt with are 180 out from refrigerated warehouse employees. I still like refrigerated trucking though; just tune out the negative-Nancy refrigerated employees.

    If you tune out the negative Nancy’s that must be one quiet truck.....
