    I'll take any kind of clapping I can get. He may bw trying for sarcasm, but I chose to interpret it as deep, unbinding respect.

    Idk who Daniel or Brock are but clearly recruiters and recruits sometimes have hard feelings. Couldn't pay me enough. It is what it is.

    I'm no one,just a bystander.
    A bobtail member no less.
    As for failing,sorry to disappoint.

    Believe what you want.
    Hell you can get fired and sit home for 2 months,come back and tell us all is well after 7 days of running while being dispatched from Lithuania for all I care.

    It's a free world.

    I don’t care where I’m dispatched from.
    As long as they pay and treat me fairly.

    Quick update....

    Here's some number from the last few weeks....

    Gross minus 13% is my 87% I get paid....
    Deductions include cargo and liability insurance, ifta, load board, ELD, and escrow deposit. Of course I also have truck payment, physical damage insurance, bobtail insurance, tolls, and pre pass...

    Gross to truck...Gross - 13%..Ded......Fuel.........Net..............Miles......Rev per mile

    $6075..................$5285.25........$585.....$1640......$3060.25....3253..... $1.86/$1.62

    $4700..................$4089.............$585......$557........$2947.........2130......$2.21/$1.92

    $5916................. $5146.92........$585.....$1099......$3462.92....2320......$2.55/$2.21

    $6400..................$5568.............$585.....$1156.......$3827.........2540......$2.52/$2.19

    $8425..................$7329.75.......$585.....$1435........$5309.75....3516.....$2.39/$2.08


    Conclusions?...

    As I predicted, I am making similar money to what I made while at Schneider, but I am running fewer miles to do it. And occsionally, I make more money....

    I do have many more deductions now than I did at Schneider....

    I enjoy having 500+ loads to pick from within a 150 mile radius of 99% of the places I have been. I enjoy talking to brokers and setting the price that I want to run the load for. The other day the broker offered $4400 on 2318 miles, I countered at $6000 and got the load!....

    Loads never cancel. And if they did, finding another load is no problem...

    Live loading/unloading has turned out to be not so bad....

    All in all, I continue to be happy I made the move.....

    Roll on.....
