ROFL = rolling on the floor laughing
They came over to "pre-game" going to the bar. We got to talking about fuel prices. They asked how it is affecting me.
I told them I'm making more money then ever. They thought I was joking.
Guess they've never heard of a fuel surcharge. |

26%???????
It should be around 50-52%!
26% is the same rate from well over a year or "TWO" ago!
Nothing to see here, please move along...

You clearly have no clue what the rates for tradeshow hauls are. 26% will pay anywhere from $0.80 - $1.00 per mile FSC. :roll: |
