Yeah, working with others can be complicated and frustrating although we need to find ways to do it as we can't keep everything and everyone at arm's length all the time.
I've not thought about owning trucks, it's not quite as simple as all that. The company I work for has hundreds of them so it's easy to win big contracts and have back ups available. Here, a prime mover, say a Kenworth K200, costs about $500,000AUD a trailer is about $100,000AUD on top and that's money I don't have. It's not what I'd want to do anyway.
Thanks for your comment and thoughts.
Wow, that's quite a lot of money to begin with. It is true that we just have to learn to work with people.
