I think he is selling something elsewhere on the internet.
To answer the question, just like many others, myself is the reason for not making more money. It all boils down to my lack of intelligence, I can only go as far, and make as much money as my intelligence will allow. The limit is preset by my mental capacity.

 

Looking at ttr when I should be driving! Lol

 

For me it's home time.
Companies that have local driving available where you are home daily don't pay well for the most part because there is an endless supply of guys like me that want those jobs to get off the road and sleeping in truckstops.
I finally got a day cab gig working 5 days a week with a 7:00 am start time and an average 10-12 hrs a day.
I like working days and going home nights with a couple days off every week, makes it hard to consider another job that pays more but doesn't have those features.
I know I could be making more and I keep me ear to the ground for something better but it'll have to be pretty good to pry me out of this job.
I make enough to pay the bills but like anyone I could use more lol.

 

The last thing i need is another mousetrap from the meriade of things already on the market.

There's enough people in my pocket already.

 

Sounds like some kind of spy.

 

My general waning desire to still consider expanding from a one truck operation to hiring drivers or owner operators. The regulation seems to be throwing everything they can to get rid of the independents and it really is tiresome. Not all days but its a growing percentage ... Couple that with the unreliable new equipment the truck manufacturers are putting out, company drivers that mostly don't care about me or my equipment and only their paycheck, owner operators that may suddenly decide, "I only run these lanes," (and still expect to make good money when seasonal produce slows) ... it is enough to just run one with me doing everything.

 

He's been here for months using sock puppet accounts to data mine the drivers and extrapolate enough information to devise a model for commercial software solutions that will fill a need. In the beginning he was met with not-so-welcoming demeanor as people didn't want to contribute to a commercial project being spun as "helping the industry".

No offense, just calling em how I see em.

 

Going home
expanding: don't want to
