    I'm still trying to figure out how to post back directly to the original post....maybe you'll end up finding my post anyway since I mentioned you specifically, but in case you don't, here I go again....

    Hey Woodys, I'm thinking the same way. I've been looking and looking for a local job for my husband..... super hard to find here in the Jacksonville area. Sure would appreciate any leads. He can't handle a lot of unloading heavy stuff (was a mechanic for 27 years and that took its toll on his back AND knees) and I'm thinking linehaul would be perfect for him. He is getting really burnt out doing OTR. Even a dedicated route, like running up and down Florida, would be great. Thanks for any advice!!!

    P.S. We aren't closed to moving, either, if we could just find a good outfit to work for, and stay as close to Florida as we can.... our daughter starts at UNF in the spring and don't want to be too far from her. I'm also disabled and need a place to live where there is plenty of sunshine and not a lot of fluctuation of the barometer.....if anyone has any good ideas, I would so greatly appreciate it!!!!

    My apologies, quoted you on the previous page and you clarified in this post above, clarifying it a bit further. SOUTH AMERICA !





    OH, I see what you keep doing, copy/paste, no wonder I was confused.

    Hey Oi!

    I see you're a fellow Floridian. Maybe you can help me. I've been looking and looking for a local job for my husband..... super hard to find here in the Jacksonville area.

    Of course, my company would be the exception -.-

    I've had over 12k cash before. A buddy of mine is regularly paid 20k+ in cash at one of his stops. And yes I have pics to prove if necessary.

    If you can pay 20 grand in cash you can pay for a certified courier. No way in hell would i accept 12 grand in cash, let alone 20. But thats me
