    Since nights are a no go for you, have you considered one of the megas? I see very few of them on the road in the wee hours so I'm guessing their drivers have some flexibility as to when they run. Swift, Schneider, and Werner all have terminals in South Dallas.

    Have you checked out all the usual suspects, such as JB, Schneider, Werner, etc? Thay may have some regional gig that works out for you.

    There are 2 reasons I'm leaving my current job. One of them is the money.

    You might xheck out select dirt services in your area. Had a day cab pass me headed towards bowie yesterday. May have been an o/o but not sure. Might be part of the local concrete company.

    There are some fine local jobs here in Bowie. I could get one. But the pay is lower than I need. I'm trying to recover from going on 3 years now of one #### thing after another and until I get this debt under control, I'm not able to slow down. It's not forever, but it sure is for right now.

    I see a lot of Bozemen trucks vacationing at the SouthEastern Frieght lines terminal down the street from my warehouse in Schertz.

    Every time I saw a Bozeman pulling a SE load, it was doubles.

    There are always a half dozen or so of Bozeman 53’s backed up to the fence in the back lot next to the dollies. Sitting doors open and empty.
