    Cash only might be good to an extent but you need credit to get major purchases like homes etc...

    If your refeer side depending where you live, change DMs or terminals. Alot of crappy miles can be attributed to bad planners in a terminal or a DM that bends over and takes whatever is givin to him.

    If your by chance on the dry side your just screwed in gen as half the idiots that run that side are boarder line retarded.

    Yeah and also you have to relize whatever pay you do not know about you want be getting. If you dont know that if you get to a shipper 1 day early you get layover pay, you want get it. If you dont tell you dm how long you waited at shipper or reciever waiting to get loaded or unloaded, you want get all of your detention pay. My pay is based on miles only

    Florida, I thought Barr nun or Raven transport were the good companys there ? I think Raven starts people out around 42 or 43cpm, might want to check out some companys down there.

    Also @Chinatown might have some suggestions.

    Those seem ok.
    What about tankers? Do you have tanker/hazmat endorsements?
