    If you got one set up for Rexam you need to watch it. They cancel allot. But allot of plastic in erie, that is light weight. And Bay Valley and other food places that are heavy. What time are you loading out of Erie tomorrow? I am in town and may have to take a ride over to Erie tomorrow. I plan to ride all day anyway. And if you are in the area I would love to come and have some coffee. Or Lunch or something.

    I did not get home till later in the afternoon. And had to wait for my wife to pick me up. She was at the Vet, so it took a while. Now I am waiting for someone to call me to swap an empty for my load. I just am worried that he is going to want to swap after I am in bed tonight. In which case he will have to look for somewhere to park. Because I am not getting out of bed tonight to swap loads.

    First week in our new adventure is over TG :biggrin_2552: I may have laughed and joked about the whole thing but it was honestly the scariest thing I have ever done, making my first call to a broker was really scary even though I practiced with Bobby and JJ and when I couldn't get the rate I wanted I took it personally but then realised that its just business, well realised that after talking to Lauren.

    I made a couple of mistakes that could have ended up being costly :biggrin_2553: but I was LUCKY and the customer we delivered to liked my attitude and asked were we available to do another trade show load picking up the day we delivered at the same place, going to Atlanta, we have to sit on this a little longer then I would like but thats ok because he may think of me again when he needs a truck.

    All in all pretty happy with the first week!
