No and yes, it's a long story. But it caused a lot of problems for a lot of people. If someone ask me if a load pays good I answer "it's on my truck isn't it" Some details are no ones business.

Going a little off track here but....

Don't you find it funny how the old timers talk about how much more money they made in the 80's, if that's true why aren't they retired? Are they really that bad with money?

I'm not sure about that. Black and white TV, no cell phones, no computers, no Internet, mono music players, no A/C in cars. I think we have it much better now

I dunno about all of that. I could give up alot of them things to live back in the day. The way my dad talks about it. It was just a nicer place. The world wasnt as crazy.

WTF was that guy thinking? He's obviously never had to hustle his own freight. I don't mind talking about rates and such but I don't disclose the ship and con.

I'll bet the fame and glory of being featured in a Randall Reilly publication was worth it!
