Truck Load Rates Halt 8 Week Slide 2.0

I thought up all kinds of ### hole responses while taking my daily hot shower. lol yes Joe I was thinking of you in the shower. :X

I guess for me this entire CoronaVirus thing I’m confused on. In a sense I think all the panic is complete bs. So, I’m not keeping someone from becoming sick but rather profiting off their sheep like mentality. I think a good portion of the country has already gotten and moved past Coronavirus. This all started back in November at the latest. I got sicker then I’ve probably ever been back early last month. So did my Mom and several other people. We have already had it!

Besides, I think this whole thing is man made. This guy made like a 20+ post tweet and it was quite an eye opener. Sam Parker on Twitter

I think if there was a real crisis I truly believe I would be one of the first to help my neighbors, but this is all manufactured and I don’t feel it’s wrong to profit off peoples unwarranted fears. I think most are buying all this crap just because they see others doing it on social media. If rates go up because of all of this, I’m sure going to be one of the people trying to drive them higher and higher. Why not? You want to keep running for peanuts just because you feel good about yourself?

 

POST OF THE YEAR SO FAR!

 

The panic is just beginning! LOL

Just wait until these parents who will now be taking time off from work to watch their kids at home (because the school's have closed down) start in on FB, Instagram, Twitter and the other social media platforms out there.

The hysteria has not reached it's peak yet. Here's a sample from a friend of mine's niece this morning on FB. He forwarded it to me:

This is from my niece in ### #####

this #### is insane! my friend is a nurse at #### where they have the Coronavirus patients and she just gave me the low down! #### its frightening.
they are telling them its beyond containment and they know it is in the community. it is effecting younger people in ### ##### (30-50yr olds) so they are thinking it is a mutated strain. they say we are 11 days out from being where Italy is today. she said they have two 80 yr olds with it that are definitely going to die but those are the only old people. :

Young people seem vulnerable to believing in the coming apocalypse. I’m the same age as Scooter and am bored with predictions of the coming demise of mankind.

 

I see substantial difference between making a profit, also selling things on the street, and making a profit like a lousy scumback, which I consider these facial masks, hand sanitizers speculators to be.

 

There is a demand for those products, so the price can and will go up.
When there is a demand for trucks, the price can and will go up. Do you keep your rates the same with increased demand? If you don’t, how are you not any different than the lousy scumbags selling hand sanitizer?

 

LOL. For the haters.

 

Per statistics, number of worldwide deaths, Jan-Feb 2020:

2,360 : Coronavirus
69,602 : Common cold
140,584 : Malaria
153,696 : Suicide
193,479 : Road accidents
240,950 : HIV loss
358,471 : Alcohol
716,498 : Smoking
1,177,141 : Cancer

 

So we are different on the principle of profiting on someone's weakness, ignorance, or otherwise misfortune. Also, I am far from considering myself a moral example.

I believe that buying out these grocery items with the purpose of price gouging them later is principally bad, shame deserving thing.
I would not entrust a person doing this with any joint venture for the fear of being taken advantage of.
Maybe that's just me though.

 

Meanwhile the sun is shining the snow is gone revealing the upcoming yard work season.
