    You can't please everybody. Personally I like hearing what people are making in different parts of the country. My contract freight is gone for the next couple weeks for inventory, so I'm working strictly off of the spot market and doing well with it. For now, it looks like just about everybody is doing well which is great for all of us. Of course the downside is that company drivers read our posts and decide it's a great time to become an O/O.

    Good news. The swelling has went down a lot since getting temp cast on. Going to foot doc Mon morning, prob getting a bunch more xrays.

    Bad news is it actually hurts more now that the swelling has went down. But I figured that's normal? Nothing Aleve and ibuprofen won't handle. Now I could deff use some sleeping pills Lol

    I’m a set of steers from going broke. I’d stay out of the Midwest. ;)

    Had me some Panda "Chinese" food for lunch today. My 2 fortune cookies delivered me the following messages. I don't know whether I can believe either one of them LOL
