    EPES is top shelf (if you don't mind slow trucks), and I believe they're at 42 cents per mile (but don't quote me on that).

    I have a couple of friends (really) who work there and they love it. They claim to always make a grand per week, every week. Sometimes, when they want to make some big money, they'll team for a month or two.

    I have never talked to an EPES driver who was bitchin'...

    ok, so you have this forum for drivers to give and get information about trucking companies, and you send them to google when they ask a question. nice.

    I went to Google and found the exact answer to your specific question, and, I posted a link for you to click that took you directly to the page where the information was located. I did all the work for you. It seemed obvious, to me, that you may not have heard of Google, and, intraweb search engines in general, because otherwise you would have went and found it yourself. Therefore, I asked, "have you heard of Google?", because I desired to continue being helpful by informing you, if you had not been introduced such a service.

    Is there anything else I can do for you? I thought not.

    You are coming off rather rude.

    sure, you can help me by showing me where it tells me how they treat their O/O on that link. Oh wait, you can't, because it doesn't say anything about it. So it looks like your link didn't answer exactly what I was looking for. If you don't know, fine, but the sarcasm is lame. And again, thank you for the info that you posted, it is greatly appreciated.

    Truthful, to a fault.

    Was there a better way to say it? I lead the poster to the answer, and was chastised for suggesting a simple (self activated) search would have yielded the same results. I did not send the poster to Google (as the poster stated). I went to Google for him, posted the link, and was happy to do so. Yet, the poster whined at the mere mention of the word Google. [/rant]

    No good deed goes unpunished...

    Sometimes it's just the way that something is said that makes it seem offensive, and yes i know you were trying to be helpful but i can also see why he was offended.. People express themselves differently.
