Noble effort - please read

Noble effort. You guys don't know what Joe went thru to become legal to the DOT. Another "American Dream" squashed by Gov't regulations. I'm sure the rules are legit but it's not a "one size fits all" world. I wish he'd of made a success of it because he deserves it. He's a stand-up guy who I'm proud to have met. God bless you Joe and family, everything happens for a reason. I don't think you are a failure and I appreciate your efforts.

I am sorry to hear this. I have been trying to get a load with Joe for some time but he was always gone or full. I thought that he was doing very well. I am now driving to Az. myself to pick up my items. Going to take a lot of my time to do this and it would have been well worth the money to pay Joe so I could stay home and do other stuff.
This is not a personal failure Joe. The failure is he who doesn't even try.

I speak as an eighteen year old. I think that you set a great example for all the younger members by placing your family above your job. I think that if you saw that then it is anything but a failure. I hope you family appreciates the sacrifice you have made. Good luck. Low68

I 2nd That Jeff. Joe is a super guy. I know I was disappointed to hear he was no longer going to be hauling. I was hoping to do a lot of future business with him. The main thing is that he gave it his best and that is all we can do. Good luck joe with any future endeavors. and please let me know if there is anything I can do for you. Bill
