    So I got loaded with a bulk load today... This particular fresh pack shed is new to doing bulk loads, and thus has yet to get it down to a science. Needless to say, they overloaded me to 81,500 gross... So how do you remove 2,000 of bulk potatoes from a reefer, you ask?

    With one of these...

    As long as its profitable and you can take care of yourself. Sounds like a good gig.

    Its definatly not get rich quick money but Its consistent and keeps me off the spot market and out of the godforsaken land they call california. 800 miles round trip. Pickup monday deliver tuesday type of deal. 5 days a week. Only downside is the quarry is closed friday but they are so busy they are loading us tmrw. On load number 3 this week . Only about 1700 miles a week . Pretty easy work . Get dirty as heck at the quarry, climbing over the rocks throwing chains, but its fine with me. Better than throwing tarps

    SO. We're in OH-HI-OH. And you'll never guess what.........it's taining. Who'd have thought??

    You drive under the "Welcome to OH-HI-OH" sign, and it's taining.

    If we're going to riot about something, and I think this is riot worthy, as does The OM, I-70 in Indiana is pretty much undrivable. I mean wtf?????

    We are parked FREE like normal Americans at the, a, TA near Columbus.
