    Maybe not, but that sure didn’t stop our governor from an executive order to close bars and restaurants.

    My gut says by this time next week the rates will be tanking. Hope I’m wrong as well. Everybody better get every last penny they can while they can.

    JP Morgan Chase is predicting this to be worse than 2008.

    Time to buckle up!!!

    Well, I noticed that young fellow on the Schneider leasing thread threw in the towel today.

    I'm still amazed that someone would sign a $3,700 a month truck payment obligation when the average revenue to the truck is $1.30 to $1.45 per mile.

    One didn't need to be a JP Morgan Chase financial guru to predict the outcome of that deal. I hope the kid lands on feet and is able to recover from the trauma.

    I just got an email about that. First of many I’m afraid.

    I checked in at a grocery shipper today. The line in was a little long, but that's okay in light of all that's happening right now.

    The lady told me how much they appreciate all the truckers are doing during this crisis.

    She handed me these 2 boxes as a "thank you" gift ;-)

    I'm glad to know that I'm helping to alleviate the suffering Americans are going through now by delivering "emergency essential supplies" for the restocking of grocery shelves.
