Stop me b4 I haul cheap freight!!!!

[slowmoe20]

J/k but I am getting tired of sitting in WA waiting for a decent ld. I'm so bored. :shock:

[Doghouse]

Do some push ups

[slowmoe20]

need to do lots of those but I can't watch the board n do em

[marcel27208]

Ive done the same!! just not in washington, i know better than to go there!!!

[slowmoe20]

I do too...what can I say the green monster got me and now well it ain't payin so well

[GMAN]

Do you lease to a carrier or run your own authority? What type of trailer do you pull?

[marcel27208]

if you have a dry box i find that when going up there u can almost always find a load going to idaho. But then you get back in the same boat.

[slowmoe20]

I run dry van and I am leased to a major carrier that everyone either loves or hates

[no_worries]

Even reefer freight is miserable up there right now. Cherries weren't even worth the hassle :?

Ya mean they don't have a load of diaper's out of Everett or a load of paper out of Tacoma or Longview for ya??

[marcel27208]

schneider has all the paper out of longview dont they?? and they dont pay much

[slowmoe20]

I don't know who has it. I could have gotten out of here by now I am just not willing to lower my standards that far. The bills are pd. I can wait them out for a little while. The last time I was out here I managed to get a decent payn ld just a couple of hrs after mt ...not the case this time.

yeah im learning to do that now... i use to run and be paid by the mile up until about 2 months ago, now i find my own loads and its hard not to take a cheap load just to keep going because ive been paid by the mile for so long. Just hang in there!

I'm curious how long will you sit there waiting for a better paying load that may NEVER come? How long have you been sitting so far? Instead of taking a load to get out and to a better place you've lost money that you will NEVER recover.

I'm on a different page and just don't understand the logic. You could have bit the bullet for one day to a better place and would have been making money.

[Collard Greens]

I agree with Steve you should have been gone after 1 day. I know a guy sat in Florida for 8 days trying to find that right load. He has dry van and was hoping to find melons or potatoes out. It did not happen.

[slowmoe20]

If the loads were going to abetter area and at least pd. for the fuel ...Yeah I see your point but the lds are going to areas where I am gonna sit or haul cheap freight again....Not worth it.

[marcel27208]

yeah i know when your in washington most loads go to idaho or wyoming or some other dead area, are you still there? did you bother to check N cali area for freight or portland? I know there is a seed place in tangent, OR(i think thats the place) they pay very well 1.45-1.55 but thats good for that area, i know they ship ALL the time
