    Well guys my boss is getting a load and coming to FL to get me. I will not have internet but will keep a notebook and blog everything in there until I can get access to the internet. If it is okay with the mods, I'll let my sister or father post from my account giving you a mileage summary.

    Yes Gas Hauler I am going back out with him. It is cheaper for him to come get me and get a load going to FL and wait in FL for a load out if he gets here by Sunday than me going to California or Virginia.

    That's a great break. I hope you never use that word swift again in corparison. You've got a golden opportunity here to make good and I wish you all the luck.

    Will do Gas Hauler. The fact that hes coming to Florida in six years to pick me speaks for itself. Do I feel bad b/c freight pays bad out?? Yes but he insisted on him coming down here, so I am not going to argue. If he gets stuck here on Sunday, I'm treating him to dinner and am making sure he has a place to park the truck safely. He did the same when I got there.

    If any of you members wants to ask questions, go ahead and ask away. I am upfront and honest and refuse to sugarcoat things. My boss is the same way in teaching me. I will not disclose the following information: mileage rate, route we took, broker information, and name of my boss.

    Note: My family will be posting for me to give you an update. I discussed this with Baack and he said it should not be a problem.
