    The Volitility is so drastic. We’re complaining now . Wait till it gets real tight. When ? Who knows . Like mentioned many will fail. Just looking around this year while getting my IRP and listening to these Guys talking about $100 k lines of credit and New Trucks Trailers etc. What a drastic change . Amazing

    It gets better. First three months are the hardest. First year, you learn the better companies to run for. Hang in there.
