    There used to be more standards though. Yeah there were those that would undercut their own mother and run her over on the way out the door, but there was still only so far they would go.

    Anymore seems like if they find out you're getting $.50, they'll come in and offer to do it for $.45. And it doesn't matter how reliable or good you are to the customer, all they see is a calculator or computer screen.

    I blame it all on the driver shortage, cause the ATA says that's the real problem in our industry.

    Careful, you already have the sidewalk sissies angry with you.
    But you’re right. Bullets are becoming as scarce as toilet paper.
