Isn't that more money for you? If those other guys don't do the work, they don't get paid, do they?


Spider, I have a funny trucker story. About a year ago, I stopped at an AM/PM at around 2 in the morning, and there was a big semi unloading in the lot. On the door of the cab was the standard sign "DRIVER HAS NO CASH." But below that, on a piece of paper taped to the door was a handwritten sign that said, "That's not true, I have about 12 bucks." ROFL!

Isn't that more money for you? No I am losing money , my normal runs I make 300-350 per day , these here I will only make 285 per day , but they are our main customer , they keep us busy during the slow season , so we take care of them ....
