    Like I said you do that week after week and ya got something. That's not a good indicator of a lot when happen to snag a load, I loaded a nice one out of Boston,mass Friday, 6400 pounds no tarp, 1800 miles paying over 2. Loaded back to Dover,NHL. Do i expect that again, not really. But I reload out of the ne on a consistent basis. Every thing changes, Bennett was a different company when I first leased to them also, they have come a ways from an office trailer on the back lot of seagos mid continent truckstop in Mcdonough. Nothing stays the same. You adapt or let the world pass you by. I wonder what happens when the mandate for everyone takes effect?

    You've just been in the wrong places or something. There were at least 5 of us sitting here this weekend. 3 flats, 2 steps, either waiting to load or empty this morning.

    Inside, which is why I'm curious how they expect it at 6 am, unless they are closing the street down for me to sleep on.

    I know I'm quoting an old post but I'm behind in my reading. Lol. This isn't totally true. We have certain lanes with certain shippers that we are contracted for. When I look for loads on the load board I just click & it is mine unless someone else beats me to the click. No waiting on company to get back to shipper to tell them they got it covered. Yes, these shippers do use multiple carriers but each is contracted to certain lanes.

    I-65, I-70, & I-71, & back to 65. Lol.

    That's for sure, I'm just trying to work out visiting someone, and I can't do that unless I know when/where I'm going to be. Permits are stupid, lol
