    that 202 miles a week. kinda high but could be worse. I imagine you do a good bit of loading where you droped though. do you have a long deadhead home or something?

    I didn't mean 200 a week was high. I only say that because I've talked to lots of crete guys and they have tole me they have a large percentage of reloads from where they droped off. so working on the "average" thing ya know.

    Man I'm telling ya. I'm not knocking you. I seriously asking questions. I like to get as much info as I can from all different sectors. Sorry if it came off that way, it's been a bad bad day.

    Arn't birthdays always bad??? lol

    I may be going over to Mavrick, still working on it. They don't like that I have been home with my son a few months so they want a notarized statement from someone not related from me saying I have been unemployed. Makes no sense to me. Biggest problem is I don't now anyone here except my family and my wife works at a law firm and is a notary. She has a friend at the firm who knows I've been unemployed but being a law firm they are super critical and she say she can't legally sign a notarized statement saying such because technially it is hear say and can not be held up in court. They are saying what they are asking for is legally useless. I'm like I don't care just sign the darn thing!
