    I'm all for being one of the last on board helping to bail water, but sometimes you have to stop long enough to see that "this baby is going down". Going to stick around to see what the new year brings but can't take many more gut punches lol. The load I'm referring to is a SNI logistics load which is really leaving me baffled. Race to the bottom for market share I suppose.

    I've had 1 settlement (the week before Thanksgiving) that has been positive since the 2nd settlement date of October.

    Now I've chosen to take off alot of time and some of the weeks have been because of load cancels or delays or whatever but dang it's never been this bad.
     
    sealevel and Home_on_wheels Thank this.

    Now with that said most weeks were break even or barely negative (0.00) but alot of the weeks freight stunk so I stayed home or ran short stuff and was home.

    But even the last 2 weeks it's been something beyond my control (usually cs) that has messed up loads and revenue.

    It's not getting better, easier or tolerable any time soon I don't think.

    And to boot, the stock market is rising as is hiring but our rates are dropping.

    GREED GREED GREED on the Schneider Family and Chris Lofgren and his bean counters.

    You got it made Tenn...I wish I could say the same and still have all my belongings lmao but seriously yea I've been grossing ,3100-3200 any home on weekends.. I'm fine with that anything more than that you're either working your ### off, very lucky, or playing with fire lol. .I rather relax and make a small profit. The loads just aren't adding up anymore
