Well in 8 minutes I'm going to start my unit. In 28 minutes it will be on the highway.
In 4 hours I'll be unloaded.
Make about $1900 on this load after the blue sky for a little over 2 days work. Which is chump change compared to what most of you make, but I never was that smart.
In 7 hours I'll have dropped & hooked and be on the way home. Make about the same by the end of Monday.
So how about Tuesday we park our units until Thursday?
Does that work for everyone?
I'm flexible.Sirscrapntruckalot Thanks this. -
Works for me. I got home yesterday morning and my truck will be parked until Sunday afternoon. Does that qualify?Dave_in_AZ Thanks this.
