    Not worried. We didn't get it. We're ok with that.......he's coming home regardless. If we pushed it out any further, it would put our plans for May in a mess.

    So with the first quarter wrapping up I noticed my revenue numbers and did a double take. My rev is up 39.6% year over year. Now I haven't broken it down to the days worked or actual expenses yet, but at a glance fuel cost are about the same and time off is probably close. And I did have a passenger for the first half of this quarter which cost me several good loads. But a 40% jump? Is anyone noticing the same? I know rates are on the rise and I would expect a slight jump just from knowing Mercer a year longer. I need to finish my breakdown and figure this out.

    Our numbers are up, but hard to say if it's because we switched to FB, or up in general. I haven't actually looked at van rates since December.

    Definately more loads and higher rates. From the load i picked up Monday morning to the load i empty next monday @8 am i will have done 4500 after fuel. It's been a very long time since i had a week this good. But part of that is staying home for 8 months.

    But also keep in mind, this is the last week of the quarter. Always the best 4 weeks of the year as customers push to get inventory off the lot.

    Nothing wrong with that. That's a 20k dollar month. Now if we can teach you to stop spending it.
