I'll leave you with one thought:

" A Man reaps what he sows"...... you decide.

We'll take a brief station break, and be right back.

Thanks, Midnight Flyer. When I started out we mostly had to learn by doing. Today, when people want to find out about this business they often come to the internet for answers. It is difficult for some people to post on the internet. We have more than 17,000 members, but only a small number of those actually post on a regular basis. I think that when people ask questions they deserve a frank and straightforward answer. They don't need to be berated or made fun of simply because they ask a question. Just because some of the questions posed are old hat to some of us, doesn't mean that it is the same to new members. Some people forget how it was when they started out. We all start with limited experience. We have a wide range of experience on this board. I appreciate all who take the time to share experiences and to help those who are just starting out. I also appreciate those who come and ask questions. It helps to make this the best trucking forum anywhere. OK, perhaps I am a bit biased, but having visited other forums and I think we have the best group of members of any other forum. :thumbsup:

Dispensing advice that resulted in less then 1/3 time active certainly doesn't inspire confidence in that advice. Of course to someone just starting with no knowledge it may seem like a good way to go.
It would be far better to give advice as to what caused it so someone else doesn't do the same thing.

It is a rhetorical question.

Maybe it worked?
Whether you got bad apples, or just weeds. Whichever the case, it seemed to work.

Well that about sums it up. Go lease to CRE and see where that gets you.

You came crying to us when Big D was on your case. Now you try to defend him??? What a laugh .
