    Ozark Motor Lines - 100% no-touch freight.
    Pride Transport

    That's what you need with that problem hand. More and more companies are going with no-touch freight.

    I had broke it before after 5k in medical bills it wasn't set properly it snapped like a twig. Dli is dedicated gm parts i can't lift obviously but need to continue making money. Worst of it is my wife left me today. So i did in fact punch a wall.

    That sucks and a lot of us have been there. I guess no touch is in your future. Things will get better.

    get your hand fixed , hire a comp attourney, you dont pay them they charge the insurance co, that increases your odds of getting it fixed.

    You need both hands in this job. How are you get crank up the landing gear so you back under a trailer if the trailer has a 42,000lb load on it if your hand is damaged (Good luck trying to get a yard jockey to help you with that). Trying to do that with one hand isn't going to work. Your first priority is needing to get that hand fixed. Yes you have bills and need to live I know but until your hand is fixed there really isn't much you can do.
