    I think you are pretty respected around these parts and would likely find several guys who would be interested in that sort of deal. Heck, I would be myself if we hadn't already leased on with these guys we're with right now.
     
    Gears Thanks this.

    Hey Gears that's pretty decent of you thinking on helping out some O/O's. From what I've read on your responses you seemed to learned the hard way and when you made the jump to O/O you had your contracts lined up. I wish I had a piece of of iron to jump on the bandwagon, because I would not mind getting under your wing for the education. And it is a great tought. I just hope the CO. name isn't SwiftWarnerEnglishGears. Ha:biggrin_2554:

    Well Thank You for saying Thank you Gears. I felt like I gave this post the "Kiss of Death" when I posted. I can't understand,I figured an offer like that would take off like wild fire. Like I said before, you definately lined up your horses before taking the leap into O/O ship, at lease from what I have read from your posts. I guess everyone has got it made in the shade and don't have to worry about signing on with a little guy. Baloney,if you still have that frieghtshaker and a room in the loft of the barn I'll sign up ina heartbeat. Oh, by the way, who are the Hoodsies? Be Good Guy

    HEY GEARS!
    Nah, not thinking of selling it at all. Just thinking that there may be some folks that want to branch out, run their own show but don't want to go as far as getting their own Authority. Maybe working something out where folks can run under mine.
    COULD SHOOT YOURSELF IN FOOT WITH THAT! MAY FIND DRIVERS JUST BLOWING SCALES, WHATEVER. GOES ON YOU! WORTH THINKING ABOUT.

    No company (that I know of) would hire or lease anyone on without a complete and thorough background check.

    No guts no glory... the Lord hates a coward!

    Well, like I said, it was just an "exploratory" post... just sending out some feelers. Thanks for the great compliment!
