    No, actually, Chinatown is probably one of the most helpful members on here, rarely does he bust on anyone or have a ######## response, you'd do well to learn from someone trying to help you, he doesn't have to, he does it out of kindness.

    If you were expecting us to hold your hand while you call the Marshalls and complain about your company, it's not going to happen, yep, we give you back handed comments, we give criticism, we brow beat, we don't pull punches, we call it like we see it, sorry that your skin isn't thick enough to deal with that, you asked for advice, the one person who has tried given you advice, you attacked, guess what, that opens yourself up to everyone else.

    Trucking companies exist to make money.

    you make money by hauling cargo at a profit.
    You haul the cargo from where it is , to where it needs to go.

    the trucking companies have zero control over where the cargo needs to go.

    You either haul it where someone is paying you to haul it , at a profit , or you you sit and earn nothing .

    there are posts on here all the time looking for team drivers to run coast to coast with reefers or with cryogenic haz mat.
    Do you have your haz mat and triples and tanker endorsements ?

    If not , get them .

    I think Karen has left the room......or he became so completely unhinged that the mods gave him the boot. Oops.......said I was out in my last post. Never mind. I was not here. Hunter Biden hacked my account.

    Sorry dude, they have been helping you, the problem is you only want to hear what you want to hear.

    from ever one of your post, you paint a clear picture and you won’t be happy anywhere, even in my company.

    Man......people job hop regardless of generation. That ain't nothing new. There are people with lousy attitudes in every generation too...also nothing new. I'm not sure why people have to labelled into a group all the time and for every little thing.
